One of the best things that can be done for insomnia is to create a sleeping schedule, making sure to go to bed at the same time every night and wake up at the same time every morning. Along with the sleep schedule take 4 ground up nutmegs (powder form) right before bed time. Using a sleep schedule and taking ground up nutmegs with it is a great natural remedy for treating insomnia in itself.
