Insomnia remedies

Angeli · Jan 5, 2006

Hi all,
I am expecting and it is peak summer in here. Last 2-3 weeks, I hardly slept despite having the ac on throughout the night... right now am just like a zombie.
I would be grateful if anyone can advise on any form of natural remedies which will help me to have good sleep and reduce the intensity of dark circles around my eyes.
Luv to all
Angeli

First of all, Congratulation......................
Just have one glass of hot milk before u go to bed. U will have peaceful sleep........Never think much when ur going to bed...Just forget about every bad things happened to you in the day and keep remembering all good things that had happened to you that day......This will help you to some extent.......
