Teas and Tinctures

A more mundane method of producing sleep are herbal teas and tinctures. Caution is advised when ingesting any herb, no matter how safe it may seem. It is important to follow proper instruction and take the correct dosages. Teas are the more simple of the two, amounts will vary but generally steep the herb in a cup of boiling/hot water. You can add milk, sugar, or honey for taste. Good herbal teas include lavender, chamomile, skullcap (caution), mugwort (caution), hops, and mullein.

Tinctures are usually made from a very high proof alcohol infused with various herbs. These are usually taken in smaller doses either alone or in a glass of water. You can make your own tinctures but if you don’t have access to the ingredients, you can purchase tinctures at herbalist shops and health food stores. Popular herbs for sleep tinctures include valerian root, hops, passionflower, skullcap, chamomile, lavender, catnip, and lemon balm.

Dream pillows

Dream pillows are a sort of catch-all for sleep magic. You can use them for any purpose regarding sleep. Dream pillows are traditionally made by sewing together two pieces of fabric and stuffed with herbs like lavender and mugwort. If possible, collect herbs for dream pillows during the waxing or full moon. Color is something that can be taken into consideration when crafting a dream pillow, use personal color correspondences. Crystals can also be added to dream pillows. You can also draw or stitch sigils into the pillow.
