A natural, gentle and pleasant tip — especially if you like that bright and invigorating scent that evokes holidays and sunny days.
A natural calming agent to promote sleep
After a busy day, the brain sometimes struggles to switch into “pause” mode. Good news: lemon can help you slow down. Several aromatherapy studies show that its scent stimulates a feeling of relaxation and reduces nervousness. By breathing in its aroma, the body gradually relaxes, facilitating faster sleep onset and deeper sleep.
It’s not a miracle cure, but rather a little wellness ritual: a simple gesture that, night after night, creates an atmosphere conducive to serenity. You can even enhance this cozy moment with soft lighting or a relaxing herbal tea.
A natural shield against mosquitoes
Nothing is more annoying than a mosquito buzzing around your ears in the middle of the night! If you’re looking for a natural alternative to chemical sprays, lemon is a remarkably effective option. Its lemony scent disturbs mosquitoes and gently repels them. For an extra boost, stick a few cloves into half a lemon: this lemon and clove duo acts as a natural repellent while also filling your room with a pleasant fragrance.
