Natural Insomnia Remedies:
An Effective and Long-Lasting Approach to Insomnia Relief

by Dr. Ada González

Getting a good night's sleep is crucial for our health and well-being. Studies show that insomnia and other abnormal sleep patterns predict lower life expectancy. Insomnia is also associated with depression and chronic illness and can contribute to weight gain. While we are resting at night, our bodies restore and heal themselves. If we chronically get less sleep than we need, our health suffers.

More people than ever are suffering with insomnia and losing valuable sleep. Nearly two-thirds of all Americans complain of some difficulty sleeping, but it is also a worldwide problem, caused in many cases by demanding lives and, increasingly, the economic challenges we face today.

Effective and Natural Insomnia Remedies

Whatever the cause, there are many wonderful solutions for insomnia. In my practice as a naturopathic physician, I've had great success helping patients with insomnia find natural, easy solutions. One suggestion is to sleep in complete darkness; this simple tip works for many people. Therapeutic gemstones are also effective natural remedies for insomnia. Wearing a therapeutic gemstone necklace can positively affect overall health and help people overcome sleep problems.

Soothe Anxiety

When the cause of insomnia is anxiety or frayed nerves, I recommend Mother of Pearl. This gift from the sea produces an overall calming effect on the body and emotions as it gently stirs the life energy of the cells. This stirring is steady, relaxing, and rhythmical, which can help lull you into a deep sleep. One woman said she wears Mother of Pearl at night before bed because it makes her feel as if she’s being enveloped in a soft blanket. She can feel tension leave her body and peacefulness enter.

“Asleep in Two Breaths”

Sometimes we lose sleep when we are in the midst of an emotional upset or stressful time. Then I recommend Rhodonite, which is a beautiful pink and black stone. Rhodonite helps soothe frayed nerves and helps us feel more grounded and calm. One young patient, a three-year-old boy, had trouble falling asleep during his parents’ divorce. When he started to wear a therapeutic Rhodonite necklace, he was able to fall sleep much more easily. He began to call the Rhodonite his "asleep-in-two-breaths necklace!"

Another gemstone to consider for insomnia is Sodalight. If you have a tendency to be mentally busy in the evening or to linger in front of the TV or computer before bed, Sodalight can be quietly effective. It helps clear the mental clutter that can accumulate and keep you from sleeping. Sodalight naturally dissipates negative mental chatter and helps clear your mind, so you can rest.

Deep Relaxation for Mind and Body

Aquamarine works for insomnia by bringing deep relaxation to the mind and body. When wearing this crystal-clear blue gemstone, you can experience a fluidity and ease that allows you to let go, physically and mentally, and rest deeply.

It is important to note that gemstones must be therapeutic quality to provide therapeutic results. When selecting gems, I recommend Gemisphere.com as the most reliable source.
