Chamomile contains compounds such as flavonoids and apigenin, which have a calming effect on the body. Drinking chamomile tea before bedtime can help promote relaxation and reduce feelings of anxiety or stress, thereby improving sleep quality. Chamomile also possesses mild sedative properties, meaning it can gently calm the nervous system, preparing the body for sleep.  Chamomile also has anti-inflammatory properties that can help alleviate discomfort or inflammation that may disrupt sleep. By reducing inflammation, chamomile tea may contribute to a more relaxed state, conducive to better rest. Additionally, chamomile has traditionally been used to support digestive health. Digestive issues, such as indigestion or stomach discomfort, can interfere with sleep, but chamomile can help soothe the digestive system, indirectly promoting better sleep. Lastly, chamomile contains antioxidants that protect cells from damage caused by oxidative stress. These antioxidants have potential positive effects on overall health, indirectly benefiting sleep quality.

Lavender flower tea has shown anxiolytic effects, meaning it can help reduce anxiety and promote a peaceful state of mind, ultimately supporting better sleep. Lavender also increases the amount of deep slow-wave sleep, reducing sleep latency (the time it takes to fall asleep), and minimizing nighttime awakenings. This leads to feeling more refreshed and rested upon waking up. As lavender lowers stress levels by promoting relaxation, it assists with  stress management which positively impacts sleep quality and overall well-being. 

Gotu kola leaf (Centella asiatica) can help alleviate hot flashes that can interrupt sleep. Gotu kola contains compounds known as triterpenoids, which may have a weak estrogenic effect on the body. These compounds are categorized as phytoestrogens, which are substances derived from plants that can imitate or control the impacts of estrogen in the body. As hot flashes commonly occur due to reduced estrogen levels during menopause, the mild estrogenic activity of Gotu kola could potentially ease hot flashes. Traditionally, Gotu kola has been used to promote healthy circulation. It is believed to strengthen blood vessels and enhance microcirculation. By improving blood flow, Gotu kola may help minimize the intensity and frequency of hot flashes. Gotu kola also possesses adaptogenic properties, meaning it can aid the body in managing and adapting to stress. Since stress can trigger or worsen hot flashes, the adaptogenic effects of Gotu kola might indirectly support the management of these symptoms. For some individuals, hot flashes may be accompanied by anxiety or changes in mood. Gotu kola is thought to have anxiety-reducing and mood-stabilizing effects, potentially providing relief for these additional symptoms.
