Do stress and anxiety interfere with your sleep or cause muscle discomfort? A homemade herbal infusion might offer a natural and comforting solution. This simple recipe is easy to prepare and uses common ingredients to help you unwind, relax your muscles, and enjoy more restful sleep. It’s an excellent addition to your nighttime routine for those seeking calm and balance.
This calming infusion blends three powerful natural ingredients. Cinnamon is known for its soothing properties and its ability to stimulate circulation. Bay leaf (also known as laurel) promotes mental calm, reduces anxiety, and supports digestion. Chamomile is widely appreciated for easing muscle tension and improving sleep quality through its gentle sedative effects.
To make the infusion, gather the following ingredients: 2 cinnamon sticks, 4 bay leaves, a handful of chamomile leaves, and ½ liter of water. Honey is optional if you prefer a sweet taste. Begin by placing all the herbs in a saucepan with the water. Simmer over medium heat for about 15 minutes to extract their beneficial compounds.
