Natural sleep methods

It's believed that a healthy person typically needs 7 to 9 hours of quality sleep per night. This amount of sleep can vary slightly depending on a person's age, health, and lifestyle, but sleeping less than 7 hours can be detrimental to health. Most people don't even get 6 to 7 hours of quality sleep each night, leaving them irritable throughout the day. Digestive problems can also occur, but don't worry. A few changes to your diet can alleviate this problem. Doctors have identified five beverages that, if consumed before bed, can help with insomnia and improve your sleep.  

Sattu Sharbat - A Cooling Protein Drink: 

Mixing sattu with cold water and a pinch of roasted cumin seeds instantly soothes the digestive system. Rich in protein and fiber, it helps prevent midnight hunger pangs, keeping your body calm and hydrated throughout the night.

 

Fennel Water - A Digestive Drink:   Soaking a teaspoon of fennel seeds in water and drinking the strained water before bed helps reduce body heat and prevent nighttime acidity. Its mild, sweet aroma acts as a natural relaxant for the nervous system, facilitating a peaceful sleep.

 

Gulkand Milk - Feel the Coolness of Flowers: 

Gulkand, a mixture of sun-ripened rose petals, acts as a refrigerant for the body. Drinking a spoonful of gulkand mixed in a glass of milk provides relief from internal heat and irritation.
 

Bael Fruit Juice:  Bael fruit is a summer wonder known for its ability to draw heat away from the body's vital organs. Consuming a little sugar-free Bael juice in the evening helps keep your metabolic heat under control, slows down your heart rate and prepares your body for deep sleep.

Vetiver (Khus) Infusion: 

Khus, or vetiver, is an aromatic grass whose roots are used to cool the body. Adding khus roots to drinking water creates a drink that significantly lowers body temperature and quenches thirst, helping to reduce the stress of the day.
