Noise and sleep don’t go together. The more ambient noise there is the less sleep we get. Snoring can really cause huge amounts of sleep loss for both partner and the one snoring. People don’t realize that even if they sleep alone, their snoring will have an effect on the quality of sleep they have. There are various ways of combating snoring, and mentioned here is a natural cure idea in the form of a herb.

Marjoram is the herb in question,  it’s leaves being picked and pressed into an oil. It is this oil that is used as an aromatherapy cure for snoring. Marjoram oil is often infused with lavender to create a pleasant smelling and relaxing element to sleep. The oil is generally supplied in a screw-cap jar that is opened and placed on your nightstand before you go to sleep and then closed in the morning. The oil vapors fill the room and are breathed in by the sleeper. The suggested result is the vapours of the oil help relax the throat, vocal cords, nasal passage, and palate which causes less snoring.

Having not tried this we can’t say if it works or not but will definitely be giving it a try in the next few weeks and will report back on it. Marjoram is available from most good aromatherapy outlets.
