European children were once given small pillows filled with aromatic herbs to help send them to sleep. The scent was also considered as an aid to an upset tummy. The Dilly Pilly is filled with a mixture of lavender, hops, lemon balm, chamomile, dill and thyme. European children used to sleep with this herb pillow in or under their main pillow, while adults often slept on pillows stuffed simply with dried hops. Unlike most herbs, hops improve with age as exposure to air increases its sedative effects. So it will not lose its potency. The thyme is added as a prevention to nightmares. Place under the pillow or near the head of the bed. You could even hang it from the headboard.
Each pillow is approximately 12.5 cm (5”) square is sealed and inside a cotton pillow case which can be taken off and washed if required. Do not heat in a microwave.
