Sleep Lab

You'll make a sleep salve and a pillow spray, but this class isn't really about the products. It's about understanding why you're not sleeping. We open with sleep architecture and the HPA axis at night: what cortisol is supposed to do after dark, what disrupts it, and what the clinical literature actually shows about botanical sleep support.

Then you'll formulate a 2oz sleep salve and a 2oz pillow spray using the specific species and dilutions that appear in the research, not just the ones that smell good. You'll leave with both products and a framework for your sleep that goes well beyond lavender on your pillow.
