Healthy Sleep: A Guide to Natural Sleep Remedies
Healthy Sleep 
A Guide to Natural Sleep Remedies Contents Introduction Many of us experience the occasional night of sleeplessness without any consequences. It is when the occasional night here and there becomes a pattern of several nights in a row that you are faced with a sleeping problem. Repeated loss of sleep affects all areas of your life: The physical, the mental, and the emotional. Sleep deprivation can affect your overall daily performance and may even have an effect on your personality.
If your insomnia continues for a long period of time it can cause problems in your relationships, compromise your productivity, and perhaps lead to other health problems. It can become a relentless cycle of worry and anxiety as night after night you toss and turn, wondering when sleep will come, wondering what is wrong with you. Insomnia and sleeplessness generally fall into three categories:
- “Initial” insomnia: where you have difficulty in falling asleep, generally taking 30 minutes or longer to fall into a sleep state.
- “Middle” insomnia: where after falling asleep you have problems maintaining a sleep state, often remaining awake until the early morning hours.
- “Late” or “Terminal” insomnia: where you awake early in the morning after less than 6 hours of sleep.
Insomnia can be the symptom of some medical conditions that may require your doctor’s advice and medical care. In those cases the cause will be treated, not the insomnia. If, however, your sleeplessness is due to a pattern of not sleeping, or because your body and mind find it difficult to settle into a state of relaxation necessary for sleep, this book offers you alternative choices for achieving healthy sleep without the use of prescription drugs. This document will teach you how to:
- Set the mood for a comfortable sleep atmosphere
- Prepare your body for relaxation
- Use colors to stimulate calmness and relaxation
- Understand the importance of exercise
- Use music and other relaxation techniques
- Relieve your mind of anxiety and worry
- Discover the importance of reducing stimulants
- Use herbal teas and warm drinks to promote relaxation
- Use herbs and vitamins to promote natural sleep
After reading this book you will have the information you need to turn your sleepless nights into restful ones, waking in the morning refreshed and alert rather than tired and anxious. All of the techniques and sleep-inducing aids in this book can be applied naturally and easily in your life. Get ready to embark on the journey of falling asleep naturally!
Herbal Tea Sleep Study
A common criticism of conventional medicine is that it’s too clinical. Some patients feel like they’re simply cogs in a massive medical machine that needs repair. This is one of the unintended consequences of relying too heavily on the cold, hard facts provided by science alone. On the other hand, alternative medicine can sometimes go too far in the other direction, allowing emotions to run the show. Several years ago I attended a conference in which the famed cancer patient advocate Dr. Bernie Siegel gave a presentation. He emphasized the importance of considering every available treatment option and understanding the reality of one’s condition. But he balanced that advice by adding this, “Statistics do not apply to individuals and there is no false hope”.
When I was compiling research for today’s blog, I began to pull studies that evidenced the many hazards of sleep deprivation. Normally, I would cite those scientific trials at the end of the paragraphs that make up my column. But two things happened recently that shaped how I’m writing today’s particular entry. I discovered some coverage about SLEEP 2009, the 23rd Annual Meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies. One of the presentations there caught my eye. It was entitled, “Sleep Disturbance and Daily Relationship Quality in Couples: Evidence for Bidirectional Associations”.
A bidirectional association is basically a chicken and egg kind of circumstance. If a couple isn’t getting along, it negatively affects their sleep quality. However it’s also true that poor sleep, no matter what the cause, is damaging to relationships. But here’s where it gets more interesting and specific.
- Women’s sleep tends to suffer the most if daytime interaction with their mate is stressful or unfulfilling.
- Men who sleep soundly at night rate their relationship as more positive during the day.

Herbal Sleep Aids
Herbal sleep aids are probably the most effective way to get a great night’s sleep! If you are reading this, you may not be getting enough sleep at night. I can relate to your dilemma. My wife has insomnia, and I used to snore constantly before I got a CPAP machine, so I know what it is like to not get enough sleep at night.
Many people ask us how we get enough sleep at night. For me, the best way to get a good night’s sleep was to get a CPAP machine. For people like my wife, I personally recommend OTC sleeping aids. It is best to try all natural sleeping pills to get the best results. Herbal sleeping pills are all natural and react well with your body, and they do not have drugs that could cause other harmful side effects.
What are Some Herbal Sleep Aids?
Relaxed sleep is necessary for good health, but more than 25% of adults suffer from insomnia. Insomnia is a common sleep disorder in which a person is unable to fall asleep and/or stay asleep. It is estimated that 18 million prescriptions are written each year for sleeping medications. Sufferers of insomnia may also turn to the many herbal sleep aids available.
Valerian was known to the Greeks as a nerve-calming substance. It was once prescribed in England to relieve stress brought on by the air raids of the Second World War. It has been used for centuries to quiet the nervous system and brain. The dried herb has an unappealing smell and most people choose to consume it in capsule form, either alone or combined with other sleep inducing herbs.
