Aromatherapy for Wellness: Essential Oils and Their Benefits

I’ll never forget the first time I experienced aromatherapy in a meaningful way. I had been going through one of those stressful seasons of life—work deadlines, sleepless nights, and constant fatigue. A friend gifted me a small bottle of lavender oil with the advice: “Just try it before bed.” Skeptical but willing, I placed a few drops into a diffuser. Within minutes, the calming scent filled the room, and for the first time in weeks, I drifted into deep, restorative sleep.
