This beautiful essential oil is associated with reducing anxiety, balancing hormones and may stimuate the uterus (and therefore it is not recommended to use prior to 37 weeks!).
One study done by midwives found it can reduce pain and anxiety during labour. It is thought to help boost oxytocin and therefore contractions, and may be useful to use if labour is slowing.
Another small study also found it effective in reducing menstual cramps for women.

Diffuse or apply to pillow at night for a restful sleep.
Add to shampoo or hair conditioner to promote healthy looking hair and scalp.
Combine with a carrier oil to massage and soothe the skin.
How to use Lively Living Essential Oils:
We recommend using an Ultrasonic Diffuser which means there is no heat source that can damage or change the beneficial properties of the essential oils.
This highly concentrated blend requires only 2-3 drops for use in the Aroma-Dream Ultrasonic Diffuser or Aroma-Snooze Ultrasonic Diffuser (Not recommended for babies under 3 months.)
For babies, from 3 months introduce 1 drop into the diffuser or carrier oil and gradually increase to the recommended amount.
Lively Living Essential Oils can also be used for massage, however, as these oils are super concentrated, add to a carrier oil such as fractionated coconut oil. The recommended amount is 2-3 drops to 2 tablespoons of carrier oil.
