Understanding Insomnia

Some characteristics of insomnia include finding it difficult to sleep, waking up several times during the night, still feeling tired after waking up, and lying awake at night. Insomnia can be caused by a variety of reasons ranging from emotional issues, environmental factors, or what you consume. Some of the reasons are stress, anxiety, depression, noise, or jet lag. Additionally, more environmental-related factors like uncomfortable beds or a room that is too hot or too cold can play a role.

CBD is great for improving well-being. Although it is not a cure for insomnia it can be used to help promote overall balance in the body.

Here are a few simple lifestyle remedies you can try at home:

Maintain a sleep schedule: Try to have consistency when it comes to your bedtime and wake time, keeping them relatively the same. Maintain this schedule even on weekends if possible.

Exercise regularly: Work out regularly or just keep active throughout the day with a simple daily walk or small at-home workout. Make sure to avoid any stimulating exercise right before bedtime. Yoga is a great calming activity you can do before bedtime instead of a heavy workout.

Avoid or limit stimulants like caffeine and alcohol: Substances like caffeine and alcohol can be stimulating and make it more difficult to sleep, disrupting the natural circadian rhythm in the body. Try to limit these and instead opt for an herbal tea before bedtime.

Cannabidiol and Relaxation

There are many natural remedies and small adjustments you can make in your everyday life to help with insomnia. Although CBD is not a cure for insomnia it is great for promoting calm and for supporting daily well-being. It works by stimulating the endocannabinoid system and helps to calm the body.
