CHAMOMILE LATTE

If you’re having trouble settling down, handling anxiety or getting to sleep, try this chamomile latte. For anxiety and insomnia, I highly recommend trying valerian tincture daily mixed with water. The chamomile and valerian in this latte is the perfect match for a blissful night’s sleep.

Most caffeinated drinks should be avoided before bed, so teas like chamomile and valerian are a good option. Chamomile and valerian have a sedative effect on the body, and when incorporated in an effective bedtime routine, they can aid a night of peaceful sleep. For example, a hot bath and then this latte, you will not be awake for much longer.

1 cup plant based milk

2 tbsp chamomile flowers (or 2 chamomile teabags)

Valerian tincture (roughly 20-28 drops or according to guideline on bottle)
