I know it's an old remedy but have you tried warm milk and a hot bath? Also they now have teas that are for helping you relax and sleep in the grocery store. I know how miserable it is not to be able to sleep and still have to face the day ahead, I hope you get some rest finally.
Hi Suec
You can also just get a nice relaxing classical CD. Most meditation CD's excluding the sounds of nature include instraumentals and claasical music.
CD's especially for meditation and relaxation are great, but we also sometimes end up paying a higher price for new age products. Try out a few options and see whats best for you.
Hope you get some good sleep soon.
I know you can get relaxation tapes at some of the new age stores. We have a variety here at our local GNC store. Also the mood machines with several different sounds are helpful such as ocean, waterfall sounds. I hope you get some rest soon I know how it is to be in pain ans can't sleep it is miserable. Good luck and let me know if I can help you any further. Have you tried natural herbs such as melatonin?
