Badger Sleep Balm is an over the counter topical product that is meant to calm and relax “poetic badgers and other restless wanderers”, that is, people who are struggling to be able to fall asleep at night because they can’t achieve a feeling of restfulness.
According to the official website for the product, all it takes to use Badger Sleep Balm is to rub a small amount of the product on the lips, under the nose, or on pulse points such as the temples. Its soothing oils are also appropriate for use for moisturizing after a bath or for a soothing massage. It is the aroma of the product that is the center of the claims that this product works as a sleep aid.
At the time of the writing of this review, the ingredients that made up this product include: extra virgin olive oil, golden yellow beeswax, castor oil, and the essential oils of – bergamot, ginger, rosemary, lavender and balsam fir. Each of the ingredients in this product have been certified organic.
The website claims that the reason it selected each of the essential oils is that rosemary is known to promote confidence, clear thinking and memory; bergamot has a mentally uplifting effect; ginger promotes confidence and strengthening; while balsam fir has a refreshing effect. Lavender is the herb behind the essential oil that has the largest impact on sleep in this formula. This is because of its relaxing properties.
That said, despite the fact that Badger Sleep Balm is a sleep aid, it has not been designed to actually make the user sleepy. Instead, it is made to help a user to calm his or her mind and thoughts so that it is easier to fall asleep naturally.
In this way, it is not necessarily the right sleep aid for everyone. If sleeplessness or restlessness is caused by something other than an over-active mind, there isn’t much this product will do for its users. Moreover, the effect of this product is quite mild, which means that anyone suffering from moderate or severe anxiety likely will not see a considerable benefit from using this product.
For people who are looking for a soothing effect to make it easier for them to ease themselves to sleep, this product may be precisely what is needed. However, it is a very good idea to speak with a doctor before beginning the use of this product as a sleep aid, in order to help to make sure it is appropriate for your unique needs and medical history.
