Sleepy all day but not able to sleep at night

Herbal remedies can help you sleep without causing the side effects that sleeping pills often do.

Introduction

The first time I tried to sleep with the help of a sleeping pill, I was terrified. It was late in the night and my husband had gone to bed hours before; I lay awake next to him in our quiet apartment, waiting for the white pill's effects to kick in. They didn't come right away—and as minutes turned into hours, I grew more anxious about how much longer it would take before we could both fall asleep.

Then, finally: relief! We drifted off into blissful oblivion together... only to wake up at 6 AM sharp with our minds racing and hearts pounding. What had happened? In short: those pills did exactly what they promised—they put us into such deep sleep that neither my husband nor myself could call upon enough willpower or motivation to get out of bed after just six hours of rest (blame biology). It was then that we decided that maybe there were better ways for us both to get some shut-eye at night...

Tagar (Valeriana wallichii)

Tagar (Valeriana wallichii) is an effective sleep aid that can help you relax without causing the side effects of sleeping pills, such as daytime grogginess and constipation. Tagar has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine, but it's also gaining popularity in western herbalism thanks to its effectiveness and mild side effects.

Tagar has been found to be helpful for those who have trouble falling asleep—but unlike many prescription sleep aids, it doesn't cause daytime drowsiness or make you feel hungover when taken at night. It's also non-addictive: unlike benzodiazepines like Xanax and Valium, Tagar isn't habit forming so you won't develop a tolerance after taking it for long periods of time.

You can take Tagar every night if needed; however, there's no maximum recommended dosage since it doesn't have any addictive properties like prescription sleeping pills do!

Tagar has calming effects, and is possibly the most widely used sedative of all Ayurvedic herbs. It has a calming effect that can help support a restful night's sleep.

Tagar has calming effects, and is possibly the most widely used sedative of all Ayurvedic herbs. It has a calming effect that can help support a restful night's sleep. Tagar works by increasing GABA, which is the body's natural sleep-inducing neurotransmitter (a chemical in your brain that affects how you feel).

Tagar is also known as "Indian valerian," or Valeriana wallichii, an herb with roots that are often used to treat insomnia. You can find it in health food stores, but it's best to ask your doctor before taking any kind of supplement if you have any health conditions or are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Jatamansi (Nardostachys jatamansi)

Jatamansi is a herb that has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries. It’s used as a calming aid, helping to promote restful sleep, and it can also help with anxiety, depression and irritability.

According to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), jatamansi is considered safe for most people when taken in the recommended amount; however, there are some exceptions: if you have type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure you should avoid it because jatamansi may lower blood sugar levels; if you’re taking prescription medications that interact with herbs such as birth control pills or antidepressants talk to your doctor before taking this herb.

Jatamansi root calms and relaxes the mind and is used as a remedy for anxiety, depression, irritability and insomnia.

If you’re looking for an herbal remedy that will relax and calm your mind, Jatamansi root is your best bet. It has been used as a remedy for anxiety, depression and insomnia in Ayurveda. It can also help with insomnia caused by stress or anxiety.

Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri)

Brahmi is a traditional Ayurvedic herb that has been used for thousands of years to boost mental clarity and memory. These days, brahmi is also used as a sleep aid, to calm the mind and promote restful sleep. You can find brahmi in most health food stores or online, either in tincture form or as an herbal tea blend. If you're looking for something easy to take on the go, try Brahmi Calm (available at Amazon), which combines Brahmi with lavender essential oil for a calming effect.

Brahmi promotes mental clarity, concentration and memory retention. The herb also acts as a sedative that can help fight restlessness. It has been shown to reduce anxiety in humans when taken for six weeks or longer.

Brahmi is known as a “brain tonic,” which is a traditional Ayurvedic medicine that promotes mental clarity and concentration. It also acts as a sedative that can help fight restlessness. Brahmi has been shown to reduce anxiety in humans when taken for six weeks or longer, so if you have trouble falling asleep because of stress or anxiety, brahmi may be an effective herbal remedy for you!

It's important to note that this herb isn't just beneficial for people who are having trouble sleeping—it can be used by anyone looking to improve their cognitive abilities. And while there's no way to know exactly how much brahmi should be taken each day (because every person has different physiology), experts recommend taking between 250-500 mg per day in capsules form (or 1 teaspoon of the powder).

Herbal treatments are an interesting alternative to sleeping pills if you have trouble sleeping.

Herbal treatments are an interesting alternative to sleeping pills if you have trouble sleeping. Sleeping pills can cause serious side effects and vary in effectiveness, but herbs are natural and don’t cause the same problems as sleeping pills. Plus, they're often cheaper than sleeping medications, so it's worth giving them a try!

Herbs can also be used for long-term use and can be used for other ailments as well. They’re just as effective as prescription drugs, but without all of the dangerous side effects or high costs associated with conventional treatment methods. With all these benefits from using herbal remedies, why would anyone choose anything else?

Conclusion

I hope that this article has helped clear up some of the misconceptions about herbal remedies. They can be a great, safe alternative to prescription sleeping pills and other medications that have side effects.
