How many Zzzzz’s are you getting? If your answer is “not enough” or “I’m still exhausted when I wake up” then maybe OM can help! May is Better Sleep Month so what better time to focus on getting better rest than now?

These holistic tips will help improve your sleep and have zero side effects - no sleeping pills here!

• Tea - If your mind is restless and you can’t sleep try one one of these ingredients to make a tea: sour jujube seed, Chinese arborvitae kernel, tuber fleeceflower stem or schisandra; for insomnia due to mental fatigue, a tea made from longan aril, red dates, wolfberry or ginseng are helpful.
• Acupuncture - If you have a more serious case of insomnia, studies have shown better sleep efficiency and lower anxiety levels in those treated with acupuncture.
• Activity - Having a good workout session in the afternoon, wearing out your body a bit and working out some stress will help you sleep better that night.
