Cell Salt Sleep Synergy

A world without sleep aids is a world without stress - not even conceivable. Yet, a home without addictive, mood altering sedatives, is more than attainable to those of us who trust homeopathy to keep us in balance. Homeopathy's uncanny ability to turn a teapot tempest back into a mole hill, plus support us when the tempest is real, should be known everywhere. For newcomers, the step into homeopathy can be a large one with a new way to think about your health, your symptoms, your medicine and yourself. Simple acute nerve settling remedies are often the best way to introduce ourselves or others to homeopathy.

So start softly. Start simply. Start with the cell salt remedies. They work, they are safe, there are only 12, they are made of what makes us, and can support every aspect of self care - including nervous anxiety and sleeplessness. Better yet, start out with a simple cell salt combination like our Insomnia - Tissue A containing easy-to-explain remedies made from common mineral compounds: Potassium phosphate - Kali phos - the calming nerve nutrient cell salt; Magnesium phosphate - Mag phos - just what muscles and nerves need to release tension, leg or back spasms; and Iron phosphate - Ferrum phos - sleep support when weariness, simple anemia or inflammation have us too tired to sleep. After a few bad nights, such a remedy is hard to say no to. Similar cell salt combination remedies, like Nervous Tension and Neuralgic Pain can be equally persuasive.

Monsters Under Your Bed?

Why do issues loom larger in the dark? We haven't a clue, but it is as if the body and mind take advantage of the silence to inform you of what's been going on inside. So before you choose a remedy or turn on the radio, take the opportunity to listen to your body's language. Play with those monsters, see if they are real. If you promise to think about them tomorrow, will they go away? Or are they just the result of over-eating, too much coffee, MSG? If you keep a journal on the nightstand to record your nightly anxieties, fears and dreams, you, or your homeopath, might get some real clues to your best remedy solutions.

In the meantime consider one of our top combination remedy's for nerves and sleep like Sleep #173, Insomnia - Tissue A, Tranquilizer #74, and Tonic - Tissue E and Anxiety #320, to help you maintain mental and emotional balance.
