The Sweet Smell of Sleep

I’ve been trying a sleep spray from a website called Spritz Wellness. My sleep has been shot to pieces ever since my daughter was born with a disability 18 years ago. I kept thinking I’d lose her in the night, and the stress of all of it just shot all circadian rhythms out of the window. I also think leukaemia, menopause, building a business from scratch, etc., etc. all helps to add to the stress of everything. I decided before trying it that I was definitely not going to put all my sleep hopes and dreams into a bottle of spray because that would be a ridiculous thing to do when probably medicine, a 10-year holiday, a new body and new blood would be the best fix.

So here’s what I did. I sprayed the bottle around the room and onto my pyjamas. The scent is lovely. It’s a mix of lavender, mandarin, ravensara and chamomile. The lavender and chamomile came through the strongest for me. Just that gorgeous hay/grass smell that you get from a chamomile tea and the lavender was like a fresh summer garden. The ravensara seemed to add depth – it seemed to give it a sophisticated undertone. It comes beautifully packaged in a cardboard outer tube, and honestly, it’s a lovely present for a good friend who has everything I think. Did I sleep better? Not really, but I’m definitely not a good person to use as a guinea pig for that. I tell you what it did do though. It did make me feel relaxed, and it seems to give an air of calm to the room which I really loved. So if you’re the sort of person who nods off when there’s a calm atmosphere around you, then this is definitely a product for you. The space reminded me of a beautiful hotel or a stately home. It’s a lovely thing. It’s reasonably priced at £14 and made in England too.
