First of all, the key to falling asleep quickly is to adjust the internal environment of the body, and traditional Chinese medicine believes that sleep problems are related to factors such as excessive heart fire, spleen deficiency and dampness. Therefore, you can choose some Chinese medicine to tone your body before going to bed. For example, angelica, wolfberry, lotus seeds, lilies, etc. have the effect of nourishing blood and soothing the nerves, tonifying the spleen and invigorating qi, and can be added to glutinous rice, red dates, and honey to cook into porridge and eat. If insomnia is accompanied by stomach pain, bloating and other indigestion symptoms, you can add hawthorn, tangerine peel and other Chinese herbs that have the effect of regulating qi and eliminating food. These herbs have a mild effect and can promote sleep by adjusting the body's yin and yang balance.
Secondly, a reasonable routine is also very important to fall asleep quickly. It is recommended to go to bed at a fixed time** every night and try to maintain a regular sleep. In addition, bad habits such as not eating late night snacks and drinking alcohol can also affect the quality of sleep. In addition, maintaining a moderate amount of exercise during the day can also help burn energy in the body and improve the quality of sleep.
In addition to traditional Chinese medicine and work and rest habits, Chinese medicine also has some massage, acupressure and so on** to help regulate sleep. Massaging Taixi acupressure points helps to relax the body and improve the quality of sleep. The specific method is to press the Taixi acupuncture points with your fingers on the soles of your feet and gently rub them for 1-3 minutes, which will help relieve fatigue and calm your mood, thereby helping you fall asleep. In addition, it is also an effective method to massage the acupuncture points located on the lateral protrusion of the lower edge of the cervical spine with the index finger and thumb of one hand to relieve anxiety, tension and other emotions and promote sleep.
In conclusion, insomnia is a common problem that affects the quality of life for many people. Conditioning through traditional Chinese medicine can help improve insomnia. First of all, choose appropriate Chinese medicine to regulate the internal environment of the body and increase the probability of falling asleep. Secondly, adjust reasonable work and rest habits, exercise and cultivate good sleep habits. In addition, some massages, acupressures, etc.** can also help relax and fall asleep quickly. I hope the above methods can help you solve the problem of insomnia and have a good night's sleep.
