●A cup of warm milk is considered extremely helpful in inducing sleep. You can make it more effective by adding: A pinch of nutmeg to the milk Or ground almonds + nutmeg + cardamom Or garlic milk (Milk + a little water + a clove of boiled garlic) This combination calms vata and calms the mind. Use at bed time. ●Fruit and Beverage-Based Remedies Cherries: 10-20 cherries daily can help reduce mental fatigue and stress. Tomato Juice 4-5 p.m. Tomato juice + a little natural sugar + Nutmeg And dinner at 6-7 p.m. This routine can help you sleep deeply. ●Herbal Remedy Traditional Yoga for Sleep • Tagar • Valerian Root • Chamomile Mix equal amounts of these powders and take 1 teaspoon with lukewarm water just before bed. This yoga relaxes the mind and calms the nerves. ●Simple Home Remedies A cup of chamomile tea at night naturally induces sleep. Nutmeg Paste: A light paste of nutmeg and ghee applied to the forehead and around the eyes helps induce sleep. ●Abhyanga and Snigdhata Night Oil Massage: Before going to bed, massage the head and soles of the feet with slightly warm sesame oil, brahmi oil, or jatamansi oil for a few minutes. This calms vata and promotes sleep.
