Its TEA time!

I have some pretty moderate anxiety. I am off my pills that help relax me because well they make me so sick and very dizzy. I haven't been back to my doctor to let her know and get something else. I decided that something else has to work for me at night, because i cannot sleep! I know I posted few days ago called Sleepless in Indiana about my new purchases. Drinking some warm tea at night specifically for relaxing and bedtime has done wonders for me the last few nights. I know I am at my moms and always feel more relaxed when i am here but i truly believe they are working for me i have been sleeping much better and waking up earlier then normal and feeling more refreshed. Green tea has a lot health benefits so i am switching to anything green tea during the day. I was just informed about maybe putting white tea and oolong and pu re tea into my collection too so I will do my research on those! Anything natural to put in my body sounds good to me! 
Here is the start of my Tea Collection! :)

Sleepless in Indiana!!!!!

Ever since I moved down to Indianapolis with Tevis and have not worked in almost a year, my sleeping routine/habits are terrible! Tevis and I are night owls, sometimes NOT a good thing. We will stay up really late then sleep in and since we slept in we stay up late again. I have moderate anxiety and I am off my meds because they make me to sick and dizzy (need to get back to my doctor to get different meds) so i have sleepless nights, my mind races and i get paranoid(Have to sleep with the tv on, fan on and our bedroom door has to be shut). I will take melatonin every once in awhile to make me sleep, but i have done research and well i already have fertility problems and taking that makes it worse so I am trying to steer clear of that. I cant take baths where i am living right now so lavender hot baths cant happen right now, i use to take hot baths to relax me for 10-15 minutes. When we move i will FINALLY be able to take them again. I bought some teas to drink at night to help relax me and i bought some calming lavender lotion for Tevis to rub on my back and shoulders that will hopefully help a little. I seen that somewhere they sell Lavender filled pillows, I NEED ONE! I am making it my personal goal to try to get my sleeping habits back to normal or close to it. Hate laying awake for hours before i finally fall asleep! I slept maybe 5 hours last night I made myself to NOT take a nap today so i should be tired to sleep tonight. I am ready for a good nights sleep!
My purchases today! Home remedies to help me relax and sleep!
