Hello all and Happy New Year!  And I start with a sleep question, some things never change :/

 

Does anyone have any experience of Valerian?  I was considering using it as a sleep aid.  Has Matia ever prescribed it for sleep or anxiety, do you know?

Hi Nyree
I don't know about tablets for helping sleep.  You could try emailing Lynette.
 
This is what I have found very useful to help me with my anxiety and occasional insomnia.  I've started sessions with Karen at Hypnotherapy Kent.  Look at her website.  She has loads of mp3's for self hypnosis which you can buy and download, but if you have a session with her she will just give them to you.
 
I have them on my phone which I keep next to my bed and just play one or two when needed.  They always work for me.  I started psychotherapy sessions but they didn't help much so I moved onto hypnotherapy and they have changed my outlook completely and for me they are just what I need at this time.

Thankyou for that Carole.  I did once try hypnosis but didnt feel comfortable not being in control!  Self hypnosis sounds better though, I'll take a look, thanks.
