Herbs For Dreams

Our subconscious and auric centers cleanse while we are sleeping. Our Spirit communicates during this time in dreamland. You may have prophetic dreams, beautiful encounters of the sensual kind, nightmares or you may not even remember your dreams at all. Often, pharmaceutical drugs and alcohol play a part in disruptive dream state patterns, so be aware of that. Watching the "news" or reading negativity on the internet before bed can contribute to bad vibrations that you just don't need. Turn it off. Infuse the room with the sound of your breath or play calming sounds like Nature, mantras or classical music. Say your Prayers and suture your Soul before you enter into dreamland. Send your Love and Blessings out! Ask your subconscious to help you remember your dreams or reveal information to you through your dream time. Use your dreams as a tool. Journal what you dream of when you first wake up in the morning. Stay in bed and write it down before you get up. If you can't remember your dreams, do you remember how you felt? Record any observations every morning. Regular normal sleep will help to ground you, enabling you to work with your dream intentions easier.Work with the Moon, which is the planet associated with dreams, as is the element of water. Work with your plant allies! They Love you and want nothing more than to help you and be Loved back! Smudge yourself and your environment. Use your flower and gemstone essences. Drink a calming nervine brew an hour before bed. Make sure you have adequate greens, fats and minerals to make your sleep/dream time smooth and comforting. Take an herbal or aromatherapy bath. Use a dream pillow. Spritz your pillow with oils before bed. Anoint with Sacred oils/blends. Here's to the sweetest of dreams!

 Meditation/Pranayama/Yoga

Start with the mind and the breath.

Just sitting and breathing in a comfortable seated position with a straight spine will immediately help with tension. Meditation clears the mind and resets the subconscious. Essential for daily life.

 Nadis Pranayama

In a comfortable seated position, bring hands to guyan mudra. Close off the left nostril with the ring finger of the right hand and deeply inhale through the right. Cover the right nostril with the right thumb and exhale through the left nostril. Inhale deeply through the left and exhale through the right. Continue. See the words "Healthy" or "Blessed" or "Beautiful"on the forehead as you breathe. This balances the left and right hemispheres of the brain, creating neural energy reserves. Preparing your brain for a peaceful rest. 

6 Count Breath

Opens the bronchioles and lungs flooding the brain and body with cleansing oxygen. Good for asthmatics.

In a seated comfortable position, use a 6 count sniff/inhale and a 9 count sniff/exhale to calm and center the nervous system. Focus on the brow point.

Yoga 

Any yoga asanas will help to calm and center the body, mind and spirit. Inversions, forward bends and backward bends in particular will flush the head and glands with nutrients, clearing neural pathways in the brain and balancing hormonal secretions.The big toes of the feet represent the pituitary and pineal glands.
