Lemon naturally purifies the air. It neutralizes bad odors and limits the presence of certain bacteria in your environment. The result: cleaner, fresher air, which can be especially beneficial for people with asthma or allergies.
Deeper, More Relaxing Sleep
Its gentle scent acts as a relaxing olfactory stimulus. The essential oils naturally released by the fruit can promote calm, ease anxiety, and help you fall asleep more easily. Think of it like a calming tea—but for your sense of smell.
A Natural Mosquito Repellent
Lemon is also known to repel mosquitoes—a great bonus for those who are often bitten as soon as warm weather hits.
Wake Up Feeling More Energized
Sleeping in a room subtly scented with lemon might help you wake up feeling more refreshed and energized. This benefit is likely due to better sleep quality from breathing cleaner air.
