Natural things that help us to sleep.

I'm sure most of the people here,as well as myself,often find it hard to sleep at night.I have found some natural remedies that really seem to help.most of these things can be found at heathfood stores or vitamin stores like super supliments,or can be ordered online.Some can even be grown in your own garden.Valerian is what I have found to be most effective.It is a root,and can be bought in pill or liquid form.Meletonin is also verry effective.sativa,chamomille,catnip and lavender can be made into tea.celestial seasonings has a tea called "sleepytime"and combines several ingredients.You can also find pills that combine several ingredients.All these things I have found have no side effects and can be taken in large quantities.They also help to sooth the nerves throughout the day.I hope this helps!

Dick has made me aware that ther may be a side effect with melatonin,that for him it caused vivid nightmares.it is different from the other herbs I have mentioned in that it is a chemical that is produced by the brain for sleeping.I would suggest that people start with verry small doses at first and only use one thing at a time,until they are sure as to how the herb will effect them.hope evry one is having a nice evening,and hopefully we will all be getting a peacefull sleep soon:)

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
