Tilia is a genus of about 30 species of trees or bushes, native throughout most of the Northern Hemisphere. The tree is known as linden for the European species, and basswood for North American species. In Britain and Ireland they are commonly called “lime trees”.

Chamomile has been used for centuries as an herbal remedy for easing stress and insomnia Valerian root tea is effective as a sleep aid due to the two naturally occurring sedatives within it called valepotriates and sesquiterpenes.

Passion flower traditionally has been used to alleviate anxiety and improve sleep. More recently, studies have examined the ability of passionflower tea to improve insomnia and sleep quality.

Lemon Balm is a citrus-scented, aromatic herb and has been used for reducing stress and improving sleep since the Middle Ages. Evidence shows that lemon balm increases GABA indicating that lemon balm may act as a sedative.
Note: Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a chemical that is made in the brain and also found in some foods and herbs. In the brain, GABA has anti-anxiety effects.

Lavender is known worldwide as an herbal “rescue-remedy” for reducing stress, anxiety and tension. Its strong, relaxation-inducing scent is used in massage therapy lotions, candles, bath salts, tinctures and essential oils. Lavender is often paired with Chamomile to enhance the effects of both.

Tila tea is readily used in folk medicine to promote sleep. Its plant compounds have strong sedative properties, which may encourage relaxation that leads to sleep

Milky Oats can ease the effects of stress, anxiety or exhaustion and resolve sleeplessness. Oats contain the amino acid tryptophan which are a natural body relaxant

Hops are known as a sedative plant. The main mechanism of action of hops is to increase the activity of the neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) through modulation of brain GABA(A) receptors

Mugwort has a reputation to enhance dreams giving them a more vivid, colorful and realist experience.
