If getting to sleep or staying asleep is an ongoing problem, it’s important to figure out and address the underlying cause. This can be, for example, anxiety, stress, depression, or even the wrong diet. Until this is found out, herbal treatments can help to get you back to sleep sooner. Herbs and plants can have a relaxing effect on the body; they may help you calm down and even improve the quality of your sleep. On top of that, particular herbs are found to boost melatonin production - a hormone your brain needs to switch into sleeping mode.
