Body gets naturally rejuvenated and mind gets refreshed after a good sleep. Quality of sleep can be improved by
- Saffron milk – Saffron is an amazingly aromatic herb that calms the mind and encourages quality sleep. Just a little of saffron (6-8 threads) and a 1/4 tsp. of Coconut oil is added to 6 oz hot milk or Almond milk or Coconut milk. When warm drink the saffron milk and sleep (30 minutes after). If you are suffering from sleep apnea then this combination may not work.
- Sleeping soon after food increases the blood flow to the abdomen. Walking about 2 miles after dinner, helps to increase the blood flow the entire body rather than abdomen (soon after food). Brain becomes less active as normal flow of blood distributes to all parts for the body, especially the lower limbs.
- Foot massage with coconut oil can be very soothing and relaxing. Apply just enough oil to massage and concentrate on the heels and arch of the foot for 10 minutes.
- Stop watching TV an hour before going to bed and strictly avoid watching in the bed.
Snoring can be reduced
- Do not eat Dairy at night if you have a tendency to snore.
- Mix cinnamon and turmeric each ¼ tsp with raw honey and eat the paste and sip a little warm water before bed.
- Drink mint and ginger tea after dinner.
