Struggling with sleep can be incredibly burdensome. For many, getting to sleep can be one of the most stressful parts of the day. And with so many different sleep aids on the market, the question is what actually will work for me, and what won’t?

While some people say, getting a good night’s sleep starts with your evening routine (not looking at your phone two hours before you go to bed), having a glass of tea, etc… but say this simply doesn’t work. If you’ve ever struggled with sleep and asked a doctor for ways to get a better night’s sleep, many will look to prescribing medications. With that, many people say that the quality of sleep from sleep medications is truly horrible, and they look for alternative solutions to getting a better night sleep. 

With that, this is why we recommend CBD as a natural sleep aid. 

So how does CBD help with sleep and insomnia? For a little refresher, CBD (or cannabidoil) is known to help calm your body, and as a result is known to have lasting effects on your bodies ability to relax. 

According to recent studies, “CBD appears to help with sleep because of its anti-anxiety properties and ability to promote relaxation.” With that, many sleep products with CBD in it also have melatonin, which directly signals to the body that it’s evening and time to go to sleep by raising the naturally occurring levels of melatonin already in the body.

Common forms of CBD sleep aids are CBD sleep gummies, and sleep sprays, like Physicians Grade Sleep Support Spray ($19). 

To see the best results from CBD for sleep, it’s recommended to use consistent doses. However, we recommend not going over the recommended amount as seen on the label of CBD sleep support as it has been noted that sometimes bodies can have a bit of a resistance to CBD.
