A lavender neck wrap is just the thing to calm one after a long hard day. Made of soft, comfortable materials containing a pliable stuffing infused with the herb, it can bring cool tranquility after a hot, cranky day. Pick one up to relax after a challenging meeting. Throw it on and go to bed. Here is one frill no one should do without.

After scrambling around the office for eight or nine hours, a wrap is a welcome relief. Whether standing still or running after people, one gets tired after these difficult days. Workers are required to be sharp, communicating and moving about which causes stress in the head and shoulder area. A delicately scented wrap around the shoulders can not only create calm and peacefulness, but can also encourage napping and sweet sleep.

Some of them will have a filling that tolerates heat and cold. Follow the directions, pop it into the microwave for a half minute, or leave it in the freezer over night. Then, pull it out and put it on for a soothing, scent-filled sensation of ease and comfort. Reuse it again and again for endless evenings of comfort.

Some wraps are stimulated by the presence of hot water. Place it gently, then slip into a hot bath and the scent will rise to the nose. Breathe in calm and exhale stress with the scent that evokes relaxation. Then, just hang it up on the towel rack when finished.

Lavender has long been used as a sleep aid in the form of scented pillows, or even steeped in boiling water, like tea. It has anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties as well. As a condiment, a spice for delicate sweets or an accent in spices, it has many uses and can take many forms. Essential oil, rubbed, or simply raw flowered spikes all can be made into neck wraps.

Lavender has always recalled the scent of the home. As a drawer sachet and a scent for toiletry products, it has a brisk but gentle smell that brings one back to home and comfort. The wrap can be used at work to remind one of home in the middle of a crazy day. Considering all the listed properties, some healing may happen in the bargain.

Try a spa day at home. Draw the drapes, lock the doors, hide the phone and go to the bathroom and fill the tub with hot water. Heat up some towels in the dryer. Wear the wrap in the tub and settle in for nice, long, hot soak. Continue to wear it while doing a manicure or a facial. Leave it on and go right to bed.

Whether it is tension in the neck or the stress of a busy day, have a lavender neck wrap time out. Wrap it around the shoulders and luxuriate in the thoughts of Provence and the moors of England with endless fields of purple hue abundant with lavender. The scent stimulates better breathing and creates a sensation of calm thoughts and quietude. There is always room for time to calm down, rest and relax.
