   Thinking of good memories or positive things allways helps because it is distracting you from all negativity that is not permittind you to sleep.

   breathing lavender essential oil is very good and effective especially if one is not sleeping due to stress and inability to turn off his thoughts. It is a very small bottle to carry, totally safe, and you sprinkle it on a cloth or pillow and breathe Ideeply.. If he can’t have glass bottles..make him a pillow filled with dried lavender..you can also add hops..if you sent both he could refresh it and keep it near his nose..inhale briefly. Be sure to use real essential oil like this one (100%)

   I went to a protest on a 12 hour bus ride several times and never could sleep at all even for two days, but when I took lavender, I fell asleep and so did those around me. Ifc I am worried, I breathe it deeply when going to bed and before I know it I am asleep.

   If he is willing to take a supplement, I recommend melatonin (3-5 mg)..more if needed..take it about an hour before wanting to go to bed.

   Ignore that person who was so mean..OK..you take care now

   see, he is gone already..good job, mods

   This is the greatest herb to help fall asleep safely.
   It called melatonin. Not a drug & is in the vitamin section of all stores costing under $5.00 for a bottle of 60- 90 little tablets.
   How it works-you take it 30 minutes before going to bed, and it turns off our "daylight clock" in the brain & allows you to drift off & fall asleep naturally. You do not wake up with a hang over from medication because it has no drugs.

   I’ve been using it off & on for several years & I’d suggest it for anyone that has problems staying asleep as I once did.
   I heard about melatonin on 20/20 and found it at a dollar store & cost $2-$3 at the dollar stores. Be sure and get the bottle that says "3mg". You never have to take more than one.

   Best Wishes and Safe keeping to your husband & you as he serves in Iraq….
