Eight Simple And Effective Home Remedies For Insomnia   by Lester Lee

Do you suffer from insomnia? Many people do but trying to find a remedy to get rid of your insomnia can be difficult. There are many home remedies for insomnia that you can try. Do yourself a favor and try all of these remedies until you find one that works and if you don’t find one that works then you will need to learn about more remedies and visit your doctors for their help.
Here are some home remedies for insomnia that you can try:

One: Before you go to bed you can try taking a warm bath with bath salts, plus a combination of one cup baking soda and one cup Epsom salt. This will help rid your body of toxins and help you relax.

Two: Put on some music that you find soft and soothing.

Three: Have someone give you a body massage before you go to bed and if that is not possible then have them give you a backrub or a scalp massage. This will help your muscles relax.

Four: One of the more popular home remedies for insomnia is to drink warm milk 15 minutes before you go to bed. Many people use this remedy effectively to help with their insomnia. Believe it or not but warm milk can be soothing on your nervous system. When you don’t like milk or you can't have it then you can try drinking herbal tea instead.

Five: Many people have problems with insomnia because they bring their work home with them and then can't stop thinking about it and worrying. You can bring work home with you if needed to but donâ't bring it into your bedroom. Your bedroom needs to be kept clutter free and clean. This will help you relax and not think about work.

Six: Make sure you eat healthy food and stick to it because healthy food is easy to digest and having good digestion is very important for your brain and mind to function efficiently. Many people who have insomnia find that poor digestion is the reason they are having this problem. Eating healthy food is one of the home remedies for insomnia that some people ignore but it could just be the answer to your sleeping problems.

Seven: Do a little exercise every day like taking a walk or riding your bike. Having just a little exercise everyday can help to relieve your stress and can help with your insomnia.

Eight: Stop drinking coffee before bed because this is a drink that is meant to keep you awake. So, why must you drink it before trying to sleep?

These are just eight very simple home remedies for insomnia that you can try. When none of these work and you just can’t find any more relief, you may want to visit your doctor for their help. Just try these home remedies first because you never know when one of them may be the answer to your insomnia problems.

Sleep Disorders and Insomnia in Women - What Causes Them and Natural Insomnia Treatments   by Dee Braun

Did you realize that women are twice as likely as men to have sleep disorders? Women are known to have frequent sleep problems during their reproductive years.
There are numerous factors which can influence a woman's ability to have normal sleep patterns. These can include hormone levels, stress levels, lifestyle, sleep environment and menstrual and pregnancy related issues. It's quite common for women to experience premenstrual sleep disturbances during which they have difficulty falling asleep, may awake during the night, or have difficulty waking up. They may experience daytime sleepiness or suffer from insomnia, which is sleeplessness, and is one of the more common symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

Many women acquire unhealthy sleep patterns due to the demanding roles they face as mothers, wives and career women. Women tend to choose to ignore fatigue and work long hours, both of which cut into their sleep time. On top if these, women also frequently have their sleep interrupted by their responsibilities as mom.

Women older than 40 years of age report more sleep disturbances than do women in their 20s or 30s. Lack of sleep in perimenopausal women can contribute to decreased job performance, decreased ability to concentrate, a decline in social interaction and a lack of general well-being.

Pregnancy can also be a major factor in sleep disturbance. The sheer demands of pregnancy on the body can make a woman feel sleepy during the day and yet inhibit sleep at night - especially in the first trimester. The pregnant woman may receive better sleep in the second trimester, only to face sleep issues again in the third trimester due to the size of her abdomen and the aches and pains of pregnancy.

Lack of sleep, or poor quality of sleep during pregnancy are often attributed to frequent urination, heartburn, discomfort from bodily changes, fetal movement, low back pain, leg cramps, vivid nightmares, sleep apnea and snoring which can occur or worsen during pregnancy.

As women age other sleep disturbances tend plague them due to menopause. The causes of sleep problems during this time of a woman's life can often be blamed on hot flashes and night sweats which wake them up or make it difficult to fall asleep.

The most common sleep complaint that women report is insomnia. Women have many reasons for having insomnia (sleeplessness) including physical pain, anxiety or worry, medical conditions that disrupt their sleep, and breathing disorders.

Statistics also show that sleep apnea increases in women who are over the age of 50. As women age they are far more likely to have restless legs syndrome, periodic limb movement disorder or even narcolepsy.

There are some natural ways to combat insomnia such as herbal teas, herbal baths and aromatherapy. Here are a few you can try to help you get a good night's sleep:

Sleep Easy Bath
2 drops Ylang-Ylang essential oil
3 drops Lavender essential oil
Add to tub full of warm water and mix well.
This is a soothing, relaxing blend that helps ease away a day's stresses and strains.
Insomnia Aromatherapy Blend
Ingredients:
10 drops Roman Chamomile
5 drops Clary Sage
5 drops Bergamot
Directions:
Blend the oils well in a clean dark-colored glass bottle. Add 1-2 drops to a tissue and place inside your pillow to aid you in falling asleep.
If you prefer to make a Diffuser blend that you enjoy during the hour before bedtime, make a blend with a ratio of 2 drops Roman Chamomile to 1 drop Clary Sage to 1 drop Bergamot and add to your Diffuser.
Lavender can also help provide relaxation and drowsiness, but using more than 1-2 drops can have the opposite effect.
Sleepless Night Tea
  • 1 part Chamomile flowers
  • 1 part Catnip herb
  • 1 part Lemon Balm herb
  • 1 part Passion Flower
Use a heaping teaspoon and steep 10 minutes in boiling water. Sweeten with honey or molasses to taste.
