          INSOMNIA AND A HOME MADE RECEIPE


Pretty good suggestions, but there is the old standard of
gathering a handful of fresh catnip leaves and mint leaves. 
Boil-up 2 cups of water and place leaves in hot water to steep
for 7-12 minutes.  Works great and pending on location can find
other nervine substitues such as red or blue Lobelia.

A plain mint tea will also work just as effective with catnip.
You can also use sassafras, elderberry flowers, and sage with
catnip without having to worry about canceling effects.

However, Lobelia and catnip in large doses are a toxin and if
given to children (3+) should be given 1-2 teaspoons.  Catnip and
mint are also good for cholic children, gas, indegestion, and
stomach cramps.
