In the conditions of modern overload and stress, quality sleep becomes one of the key factors in maintaining health and performance.
This was reported by URA-Inform with reference to the telegram channel “Doctor in the Pocket”.
Doctors and herbalists recommend including special herbal teas in daily rituals, which not only improve sleep, but also restore the balance of the nervous system. Plants for stabilizing the nervous system and improving sleep:
Chamomile
It has a mild sedative effect, relaxes muscles and reduces anxiety. Chamomile tea is especially useful before bed, as it promotes deep and uninterrupted rest.
Melissa
It is a natural antidepressant. Melissa contains essential oils that normalize the emotional background and help cope with insomnia caused by anxiety.
Mint
The calming properties of mint are used to relieve headaches and relax the nervous system. Its fresh aroma reduces cortisol levels, which has a beneficial effect on falling asleep.
Valerian
One of the most famous natural sedatives. Valerian root extract reduces nervous tension, normalizes heartbeat and helps with sleep disorders.
Hops cones
Hops cones are valued for their powerful sedative effect. This plant is especially effective in combination with valerian for chronic sleep disorders and increased anxiety.
Motherwort
Motherwort has a cardioprotective and calming effect. It is recommended for people suffering from nervous exhaustion and high blood pressure, as well as those who have difficulty falling asleep.
Lavender
Lavender is known for its relaxing aroma. It is used not only as a tea, but also for aromatherapy. A few drops of lavender essential oil on your pillow will help you fall asleep faster.
In addition, doctors have warned what just one cup of coffee does to the human brain.
