After staring at the computer screen for what seemed like forever, I sat back, took off my glasses and rolled some lavender essential oil on my temples — inhaling deeply and exhaling a slow, relaxed breath. Scents truly have the power to transport us to another place and influence our emotions. No one understands that more than the team at Edens Garden — “ a family-owned, women operated essential oil company making natural wellness affordable and accessible.”

Whether you’re looking to sleep better, ease stress or relive headaches, Edens Garden has you covered. They offer a wide variety of sets, synergy blends and roll-ons in over 250 different varieties that are 100 percent pure; there really is something for everyone.

I had the pleasure of testing the lavender roll-on, which is my new favorite wellness product. The roll-ons come pre-diluted and are the perfect size to throw in a bag or desk drawer for when you need it. I love using the oil on my pulse points or temples for instant relaxation or to ease headaches from continuously staring at a screen. An application to the back of the neck during a meditation session is also highly recommended.

The 10-milliliter lavender roll-on is $8.95

I was also able to test the De-Stress set, which contains three synergy blends: Stress Relief, Relaxation and Anxiety Ease. The citrusy notes of Stress Relief help me clear my head and maintain focus, while the persistent scent of Anxiety Ease awakens me out of any mid-day, stress-induced slump. Closeout the workday with a moment of self-care by inhaling the floral notes of Relaxation, whose lavender and geranium notes instantly transport you to a place of serene calm. Remember to diffuse or dilute these yourself, as they don’t come ready-to-use like the roll-on.

This set of three costs $23.95
