INSOMNIA
Lying in bed listening to the clock tick or the dripping tap and staring at the black scenery, thoughts and worries whirling around and around in your head…insomnia; one of the most debilitating, and destructive conditions to live with. There are a multitude of lifestyle adjustments that may help restore your sleep pattern, including breathing exercises, turning off phones and wifi, having a warm bath, drinking more water, increasing daily exercise, removing stress and anxiety from your life, as well as natural herbs that have a gentle calmative effect on the body. Chamomile, Lavender, Limeflowers, Vervain, Lemon balm are some of the gentlest, moving to the more sedative group including Hops, Skullcap, Valerian, Cowslip & Passionflower.
