A very well-known plant thanks to its striking colour and delicious scent, but did you know that lavender is one of the best herbs for promoting sleep? It has even been scientifically studied! And as it turns out, research shows that people who use it daily fall asleep faster and also sleep longer. This is because of the sweet smell of lavender.
You can use lavender as a scent in the form of oil or put some in a bag and put it under your pillow. Another good method is to incorporate the lavender blossom into a delicious herbal tea.

4. Chamomile
A white-yellow flower known for its delicate flavour. But chamomile tea is not only drunk by many for its taste, its calming effect also plays a big role in this. It has a very positive effect on our nervous system and has been used for centuries to promote sleep. Furthermore, it can help with fever, inflammation and flatulence. Fungi and bacteria also don't get a chance to develop further when camomile is used, so it can be used well for gastrointestinal problems.
5. Lemon balm
Lemon balm is used for various remedies. Traditionally, it has been used for insomnia, digestive problems, stomach aches, colds and fever. When used, it calms your breathing, allowing other body parts and organs to benefit from this in turn and be less under stress.
