What can I use to go to sleep at night

Question

I seem to stay up all night and sleep all day but now I'm forcing my self to stay up.What should I take for at night.

Answer 1

The pineal gland only becomes active after dark and shuts down in the daylight (one reason why people working night shift may have sleep problems). By regulating levels of melatonin, our bodies create the 'sleep-wake cycle' or circadian rhythm. Of course, the process is more complex than this, and there are other things that contribute to healthy sleep. However, sufficient production of serotonin and melatonin is crucial in promoting and maintaining normal sleep patterns.

Natural remedies can help support healthy sleep patterns:

--Avena sativa is used by herbalists to address common nervous exhaustion and also as an effective nerve tonic.

--Scuttelaria laterifolia has a long history of effective traditional use and is a well respected nerve tonic.

--Passiflora incarnatais a gentle yet effective soothing herb often recommended by herbalists for people who tend to worry occasionally and to support peace and harmony in the spirit

--Coffea (30C) is a remedy of particular benefit for people who may find it difficult to ‘wind down’.

--Nux vomica (30C) is another remedy especially effective for the ambitious, perfectionist person who cannot unwind easily.

In addition, consider the following tips to naturally support healthy sleep:

--Exercise regularly (but not just before bed time!)

--Avoid alcohol and caffeine products at least 4 hours before bedtime.

--Try to use the hours before bedtime for relaxation to help your mind and body to wind down

--Have a warm bath just before you go to bed

--If you are worried, anxious or depressed, talk about your feelings to someone you trust

--If you have unresolved issues or problems that are causing stress, consult a counselor for help in making changes to your life.

Funny you should ask.  Many of us have that same problem with sleeing at night.  I read some good book (non fictional) and or listen to CD's that promote good positive thoughts. These can be relaxing and beneficial  in many ways.  You are what you think about so we must be aware and feed our minds profitable thoughts that bring the results we desire.  

I got a personalized book that has helped me immensely. It promotes good healthy things about You !  It has your name throughout the book and becomes very powerful in your thought life as you read.  You are a special individual and there is no one like you. You can help yourself by doing some things that will change your prespective on life in general and about yourself in particular.  This brings great peace to your life to learn and understand who you are and where you are going in life.  People who you would recognize have gotten their own personalized books and recommend them to everyone. You will be surprised at how it changes your thinking and you own personal life.

Great and powerful encourager on a daily basis. You can read a couple of pages daily and it will be effective....I can't imagine not having my own book. There is no other thing like it anywhere.  I love mine...

You could get yours at the link below in the source line..It is much more than you think.  change your thoughts and change you own world.  It's a great book. what you see and what you hear before going to bed can help change the no sleeping habit, which I am quite familiar with....
