Great Herbs for Fighting and Helping Relieve Insomnia

 Many people today suffer from insomnia. Is this really a surprise? Many people have poor diets, a lot of stress and very busy lives. These issues are coupled with TV, artificial lights, smart phones, computers and other distractions that help to ensure that we do not always get the rest our bodies crave.

However, not getting enough sleep also can be caused by your mind being just too busy, getting too much caffeine, blood sugar issues another other problems.

One of the key things to sort out with your insomnia problem is to understand the particulars. When do you have trouble sleeping? Day or night? Do you have trouble falling asleep, or staying asleep? Does your insomnia come with feelings of anxiety? Do you suddenly wake up with your mind full of thoughts, even though you are still tired?

If you suffer from evening and night insomnia, you often are having problems with your mind being too busy. Sometimes we do not provide our bodies with the time that it needs to wind down after a long day. We might be spending too many hours in front of the computer or TV at night, which tends to wind us up. It is a good idea to turn off TVs, computers and smart phones at least an hour before bedtime.

It always is useful to try a warm bath about 90 minutes before you go to bed. Try to lace your bathwater with lavender oil, which is really useful to calm the mind and body.

When it comes to herbs for evening insomnia, try valerian. It can be effective to calm a worried mind before bed. Three or four capsules of this herb can help you relax before bed. It actually is quite good as a sedative, but it will not make you groggy like some sedatives can.

Having a cortisol level that is too high can cause your immune system to be suppressed, and can cause you to gain weight. Some people who are on low carb diets also seem to get this kind of insomnia.

For this sort of sleeplessness, you should try magnolia bark. It can help your mind and body to relax by reducing your levels of cortisol.
