Lavender

Lavender oil has been found to increase the alpha power, measured by EEG, in those who inhaled a 10% lavender solution for 3 minutes .
The increase in alpha power was interpreted as an increased state of drowsiness.
Alpha waves dominate the EEG trace in normal adults who are in a relaxed state.
In the study, the individuals receiving the lavender treatment had lower anxiety scores and were more relaxed.
