I’m looking for a strong herbal remedy for trouble sleeping and staying asleep?
Does anyone no a specific herb or herbal pill that can help someone who has trouble falling asleep and staying asleep. I’ve tried sleep meds but they never agreed with me. Now i want to experiment with herbal remedies. I wake up 3-5 times a night and it sometimes takes me hours to fall asleep. If you know and herb can you post it, preferably one that can be bought over the web easily. I saw websites like iamshaman.com that looked legitimate.
I do not reccommend sleeping pills. Take melatonin supplements instead, 3mg per day 1 hour prior to bed.
Sleeping pills are dangerous. I would recommend trying to synchronise your circadian clock again, spend time outside in the sun, watch it rise/set, for a minumum of 30seconds per day, although 3 – 30minute would be better. Also if your very tired, then sleep for an hour or two before 3pm. You also need to slowly ween yourself to ‘normal’ sleep hours, each day wake up an hour or two later, or sleep an hour or two earlier, gradually you will normalise the sleep cycle.
If all this does not help, then take melatonin or 30mg of 5HTP. This is a safe supplement which is the precursor to serotonin {the feel good neurotransmitter}, at night it is converted to melatonin {a chemcial that makes you sleep}, so increasing this will help. Also stay in a dark room, no bright lights, and just relax.
