natural sleep drink

It’s pitch black and you’ve just woken up with your heart pounding and without looking at the clock, you know it’s 3 a.m.

You can’t remember the last time you slept through  the night and as you lay there, you wonder when you will be able to fall back asleep . . .

If this is you, one of the key signs of hormonal imbalance and blood sugar dysregulation is waking up between 2 a.m. and 4 a.m.

These wake ups are caused by an imbalance of  the stress hormones cortisol and adrenaline. If you want to have a proper good night’s sleep, it’s useful to follow bedtime rituals suggested by InsideBedroom

Strangely enough the ingredients in this simple sleep supplement recipe, sugar and salt,  work as a natural solution for middle-of-the-night wake ups.

These two ingredients help keep your stress hormones in check.   Sugar tells your body to shut down production of the stress hormones that keep you awake at night.  Salt helps maintain adrenaline levels so they don’t spike out of control.

This is only one of the few gems of information in the book Quit PMS by my friend Lauren from Empowered Sustenance.

As women, it seems like we are always in the middle of some hormonal tornado, however, there is hope for those of you who suffer from debilitating cramps and raging mood swings.

It's pitch black and you've just woken up with your heart pounding and without looking at the clock, you know it's 3 a.m.

 While the above image, might make you giggle, 42 million women suffer from painful menstruation and point blank:

Periods aren’t supposed to suck.  Our wise, wonderful bodies know that. That’s why, when given the correct tools and building blocks, our hormones fall into equilibrium and PMS disappears.

And that is a wonderful thing.

– Lauren Geertsen

    Thanks for your good effective info on a good drink for PMS Leucorrea and Sleep Loss. I will bring it to the notice of most of my fans on my fb site. I will also refer your site to all my 5000 readers almost, for using your info in fairness for use of all women by sharing.IT is so easy and IT is effective. IT is also electrolyte for leg or calf muscle cramps. When people are on fasting and if they feel very weak and with very painful cramps they can use it to recover immdtly in ten minutes. I HAVE ALREADY ADVISED MY READERS LONG TIME AGO ABOUT USING BS MOLASSES AND HIM SALT WITH WATER AND LEMON DROPS TOO. THANK YOU FOR YOUR WONDERFUL AND INFORMATIVE WEBSITE. I am working on my website. I will give a link on my site when it is done. Thanks again. — param ofsunflowerdance in fb. June 25-2014
