Ingredients :
- Dried hop cones (approximately 100 to 200 g, depending on the size of the pillow).
- A pillow or cover made of natural fabric (cotton or linen, preferably breathable).
Preparation :
- Select the hop cones : Make sure they are thoroughly dried to avoid any moisture. Their delicate, slightly grassy aroma is the very essence of this soothing pillow.
- Prepare the pillow : If you are using an existing pillow, open a small section of the cover and add the hop cones inside. For a custom pillow, fill a fabric cover with only the cones.
- Securely close the cover : If you have opened an existing pillow, use a simple seam or ties to hold the cones in place.
Use :
- Place the hop pillow under or near your head when you lie down.
- Enjoy the natural aromas released by the hops to soothe your mind and promote deep relaxation.
Tips:
- If the smell of hops is too strong, mix it with calming herbs like lavender or lemon balm.
- You can also place a regular cover over the pillow to reduce the scent.
Benefits:
Hops are known for their natural sedative properties, often used to combat insomnia, anxiety, and stress. The aroma released by the cones acts directly on the nervous system, helping to slow the heart rate and promote a state of calm. Combined with a soothing bedtime routine, this pillow can contribute to deep and restorative sleep.
Conservation :
To preserve the aroma and effectiveness of your hop pillow, replace the cones every 3 to 6 months or as soon as the scent fades. Store replacement cones in a dry place, away from light.
Try this simple and natural pillow to rediscover peaceful nights, while enjoying the benefits of nature.
