The power of Lavender
Cornish Lavender contains potent aromatic compounds such as linalool and linalyl acetate, which exert sedative effects by modulating neurotransmitter activity in the brain.
These compounds particularly enhance GABAergic neurotransmission, which is known for its calming and anxiety-reducing properties. Inhaling the Cornish Lavender aroma stimulates the limbic system, releasing endorphins and serotonin, inducing relaxation and alleviating stress, facilitating sleep initiation and enhancing quality. Its analgesic properties may relieve discomfort, promoting deeper and more restorative sleep.

The Sleep Practice
Prepare your space
- Turn off all screens and light-emitting devices—dim artificial lighting.
- Adjust the temperature, ensuring the environment is comfortably cool.
- Light your anatome candle. You’ll burn it for 15 minutes to diffuse its scent in your environment. The soft candlelight will help you relax.
Apply your oil
Apply 2 drops of your anatome Sleep Oil on each sensory point (wrists, back of the neck, sternum and soles of your feet), massaging into the skin. Be present— observe how it feels and enjoy the scent; this is your moment.
Calm your mind
- Read a book - prefer fiction, romance, or a biography. Avoid heavy subjects, business, or work-related literature.
- Write a journal entry.
- Engage in a calming activity of your choice.
Breathe
Breathing exercises help lower your cortisol levels and boost melatonin release. Breathing is also a science-proven method to calm and de-stress the mind and body.
- Take a deep, slow breath, counting to 4 seconds. Pause for 1 second, then release, exhaling slowly for 4 seconds. Repeat this process at least 5 times, up to 10 times.
