I have finally found something to help me sleep that doesn’t turn me into a zombie the next morning and I owe it all to my neighborhood natural herb store. Valerian root is a perennial plant that is native to Europe and Asia. Historically it was used in perfumes but has been found to aid in sleep disorders and anxiety problems.

Ever since I was a kid I have had problems sleeping and it has dramatically affected my health. I have tried everything, prescription drugs, CDs of soothing music, I even tried hypnosis and nothing has been able to help me sleep without giving me a drowsy hang over the next morning.

I walked into the herb store not even looking for a sleep aid but when my conversation with the owner turned to my sleeping problems he immediately walked me over to the valerian root. I was reluctant at first, considering I felt I had tried everything, but I figured why not give it a try. So I took two tablets about an hour before going to bed. Much to my surprise, I got a full night of rest and the following morning I didn’t need my morning coffee to get to work.
