my sister was in a car accident the year before last and was terribly stressed afterwards and losing a lot of sleep. So i sent her a pillow that has a pocket in the centre that was filled with lavender, i did want to get a different herbal blend that i saw , which contained hops and other sleep inducing herbs aswell as lavender, but the website was down mad so she only got the one frangrance, ahe said it smelled lovely though. 3nodding
rosemountainherbs.com has a nice selection of herbs. ^_^

I use hops for a sedative when I get really frustrated or upset.

seem like a realy good idea and as people have sead lavender can be a bit much to some people. a comforting herb i find is sage. and if thay are dryed rosehips and petals work well. 4laugh

Ooh, good point. Sage might be nice... I like adding rose scented things to teddys or plushies... I use them for emotional trauma.

Soft rose scents are nice, but I find strong rose-scented things just as bad as strong lavdender-scented things. O.o;

thick and sort of... cloying, if you ask me. Too sweet. I like mixing flowers and citrus!

I wonder what would happen if you filled those teddy bears with an aphrodesiac.

Probably very little. ^_^ Especially if given to children. For adults, it may offer a little something extra, but honestly, scented aphrodesiacs are mostly in the mind and not the body- there is a mild physical effect, but most of it is mental, the idea that this particular scent should trigger something.

I would know. As a kid, I loved sandalwood and ylangylang- both powerful aphrodesiacs that put me immediately to sleep.

Yep. ^_^ I'm good at that.... you know, answering questions honestly and in detail. *nods* After all, my entire goal with this guild is to make you as depressed and snippy as I can, and has nothing to do with the -professed- goal of teaching and learning about alternative medicines to help people live healthier lives. (That's playful sarcasm, by the way.)

he he, put those knives away girls razz

an interesting point though, many scents that are labelled as aphrodisiacs are in actuality simply very relaxing..
jasmine for instance, meant to be one of the headiest aphrodisiacs out there, simply because it's supremely relaxing 3nodding

filling a bear with a blend of said herbs of course is no good for kids, but for a lady friend who likes soft toys.. wink

Unless she's like me and then it'll be "Here, have a bear!" "Oh, thank y-zzzz...." ".... well... shoot. >>"

XD I fall asleep very easily.

Hm. I wonder, though- Teddy bears are fine and well, but they do tend to fall out of bed. Good for kids who cling to things, but I wonder what would happen if you mixed herbs into the batting in a pillow? Then you won't lose it, it's right near your nose, and you can rest all night on it.

putting something inside the pillow seems like the best idea, as i find i do need a sleep inducing scent right next to my nose, maybe you could distill a pillow spray instead..might need a lab to make something that was strong enough though, as you'd need it to be alcohol instead of oil based or your bedding wouldn't like it confused

lol, what i really need, is a bed in a plant nursery ninja a bower, filled with sleep inducing plants so the air is saturated with scent and it knocks me out lol
