While the child is Playing or at School, Spray their bed.
When the child is Home and before they go to bed, have them spray their Closet, Under their bed and where ever else they feel 'Monsters' come from.
That will give them power over their fear and security in their sleep.

A MyAutis...

I have used with my son cedarwood, lavender, and one called peace and calming (great stuff for meltdowns) and those 3 help him sleep 10-11 hours each night. (He used to sleep only 4-5 hours, tops).
Also, 3 months ago, I started a protocol called reconnect, which is basically using 4 oils, reconnect, sleepyize, and geeniuse (i don't use this last one)... and I have seen a lot of positive changes. Like he is a totally different child. My son is 4.5 y.o, mild/moderate ASD and also has hypotonic cerebral palsy due to a perinatal stroke.

Great ideas.
