But there are even better natural sleep aids you can create with herbs you may not have thought of. These herbs can be made into natural remedies for insomnia and anxiety, which is great if your mind is too anxious for sleep.

 

If your mind can’t relax, your body is stiff, or you’re just suffering from insomnia, these herbs can help you get better, deeper sleep fast.

3 Herbal, Natural Sleep Aids for Better, Deeper Sleep

Passionflower

Passionflower is a delicious floral tea which helps you get better quality sleep. It’s a mild sleep aid, but it’s also known for its relaxing effects and ability to reduce anxiety. So if you’re unable to sleep due to tension, stress, or anxiety, this may be the option for you.

 

Steep it as a tea for 10 minutes to get the full effects, and enjoy the lovely smell and floral taste. Sweeten with stevia if desired, but skip sugar since it can keep you up longer and trigger anxiety.

St. John’s Wort

St. John’s Wort helps aid sleep by improving mood and relieving feelings of depression and anxiety. It also helps reduce inflammation in the body, which can help you feel more comfortable and relaxed before bed.

 

Steep it as a tea for 5 to 10 minutes, or take it as a capsulated supplement.

Valerian Root

Valerian Root has beautiful pink and white flowers, as well as a pleasant aroma. Studies have shown that this lovely herb is the best for home remedies for deep sleep, and even helps you fall asleep faster. It can calm the nervous system, fight depression, reduce anxiety, and lower blood pressure as well. In short: it’s a super herb for natural sleep remedies. But because this herb is so potent, don’t take it every day for long periods of time, because it can be a little hard on the liver.

 

Steep it as a tea, create a potent sleep aid tincture, or capsulate it for use as needed.
