Insomnia or lack of sleep, is the one
condition that is often better treated by natural remedies
and herbs.
Drugs can cause side effects, leave you feeling drowsy the
day after, and are often addictive.
Herbs are effective for sleeplessness from
a wide variety of causes and their effects range from very
mild relaxants to effective sleep aids.
They can be taken internally as tablets or
capsules, as infusions or as tinctures. They can even be
used topically as baths or essential oils.
Homeopathy can also be very
effecive for short term sleep problems.
Herbs used for treating insomnia include
Valerian, Corydalis, Passion Flower, Lemon Balm,
and Chamomile. I have included a description,
recommended dosages, and possible side effects of some of
the most popular natural sleep remedies.
First of all though, here are some
sleep tips,

and getting into a "winding down" routine before going to
bed.
