Sleep Blend is designed for gentle topical massage, allowing the soothing botanical aromas to become part of a peaceful evening environment.

A restful night begins with helping the body and mind transition from daytime activity into relaxation.

UNDERSTANDING SLEEP — WHY RESTORATIVE REST MATTERS

Sleep is one of the body’s most important biological processes.

During sleep, the brain and body carry out essential functions involving memory, emotional processing, immune regulation, tissue maintenance and metabolic health.

Healthy sleep is regulated by several interconnected systems.

1. THE AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM

The autonomic nervous system regulates many involuntary functions, including heart rate, breathing and digestive activity.

It has two important branches.

The sympathetic nervous system prepares the body to respond to challenges and increased demands.

The parasympathetic nervous system supports rest, digestion and recovery.

When a person experiences prolonged stress or heightened alertness, relaxing at bedtime may become more difficult.

Calming activities, including gentle massage and pleasant aromas, can help create an environment that supports the transition towards rest.

2. CORTISOL AND THE STRESS RESPONSE

Cortisol is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands.

It follows a normal daily rhythm, typically rising towards morning and declining later in the day.

Stress, irregular schedules and disrupted sleep can affect this rhythm.

Although some aromatherapy studies have measured changes in stress-related markers, there is insufficient evidence that a topical essential-oil blend reliably normalises cortisol levels.

Its more established role is in promoting a relaxing sensory experience.

3. MELATONIN AND THE SLEEP-WAKE CYCLE

Melatonin is produced primarily by the pineal gland and helps communicate the body’s biological night.

Its secretion is strongly influenced by the light-dark cycle.

Bright light in the evening can interfere with the normal timing of melatonin release.

Essential oils are not a replacement for melatonin, but a consistent bedtime routine may help reinforce healthy sleep habits.

4. THE BRAIN AND EMOTIONAL RELAXATION

Aromatic molecules are detected by olfactory receptors in the nose.

Olfactory pathways communicate with brain regions involved in emotion, memory and sensory processing.

This helps explain why familiar, pleasant fragrances may contribute to feelings of comfort and relaxation.

THERAPEUTIC BENEFITS OF HADASSAH SLEEP BLEND

1. SUPPORTS RELAXATION BEFORE BEDTIME

The combination of Lavender, Cedarwood, Rose Geranium and Ylang Ylang creates a comforting aromatic profile suited to evening use.

A familiar botanical fragrance can become part of a consistent bedtime routine.

Over time, repeated relaxing activities may help reinforce the association between the evening routine and preparing for sleep.

3. SUPPORTS EMOTIONAL WELLBEING

Stress, worry and emotional tension can make it difficult to unwind.

The blend’s floral, woody and citrus aromas offer a pleasant sensory experience that may complement relaxation practices.
