The secret to a good nights sleep....

More information please, I’m on pillow spray at the moment.

No, but I'd love to know what it is. Rarely have a decent night's sleep without waking up. I've also tried a variety of things.

I’ve just bought a book on mindfulness which is supposed to help, I’ll try almost anything

I'd like to know too, not having slept well for about the last fifty years.

You’re allowed to tell us, MissFoodlove, it’s only people coming on here to sell things who aren’t allowed to advertise!
I have a cup of Twining’s Lemon & ginger tea last thing, but it doesn’t stop me waking up at least once in the night.

I hope it’s not Tea Pigs you’re referring to - I tried those & although the tea was nice, I was dismayed to see the actual bags re-appearing at the bottom of my compost bins. I don’t have that problem with Twinings.

Mindfulness techniques help me not to worry about not sleeping regularly, but they don't really help me get to sleep - if you see what I mean. Thankfully, now I don't work for an employer and live on my own, I don't really bother about regular sleeping habits.

Oooooo following! I would love a cuppa that helps me sleep.

Yes growstuff, I know exactly what you mean, if I can’t sleep Saturday nights, I don’t panic so much, but every other day I need to be up by 6.00 at the latest, and as the hours pass, and I realise I’m not going to get any sleep, I start to panic, when I hear the heating start up, I know I’m doomed

Pukka night time.
Truly amazing.

Thank you MissF it’s on my list ?

Please let me know if you have success.

I’ll be buying some the first chance I get, Thankyou

Do you use any particular one MissF ? There seem to be at least two, one with oatflower and one with berries.

Not the berries,I’ve not tried it yet,sticking with the oat flower.

Thanks MissF

Just check it’s ok with any other medication.

I have just ordered some from Amazon. Thanks for the tip.
I should have it by Tuesday and hope it works for me.
I do use Phenergan when I feel desperate. It works but does make me feel dozey the next day,even more than I usually am!

Thank you.
It's got excellent reviews at Tesco. I'll be adding a box in my next weeks order.

Hot baths and straight to bed. Also a hot milky drink.

I suppose this sounds old-fashioned but it does seem to work for me.

Me too. They are going to have a sudden spike in sales of the said tea ?

I’ve actually got some in a mixed box of herbal tea. Going to try it now.

Soft Merlot red wine night cap that is until niggling arthritic knee wakes me up.

I loved my Pukka Tea Advent Calendars from DD.

chamomile is commonly regarded as a mild tranquilizer or sleep inducer

so chamomile tea bags.......not tried them myself though
