In Japan, many people practice the art of forest bathing, which involves going into the woods with purpose, taking in all of the scents that the forest has to offer to ease stress and lift tension and anxiety. Cedarwood helps bring the forest into your home when you can’t take in the aroma of the woods, helping calm frazzled nerves and improve sleep by preventing nagging worries that may keep you awake at night. Versatile cedarwood also helps increase concentration, repels insects and deodorizes your space.
