Chinese medicine has a variety of methods for helping people get a good night’s sleep. When suffering from insomnia or other sleep problems, these methods are also useful. As long as you sleep well, you’ll be able to maintain a charming disposition and a good complexion.

Rose to Release Stress

The nature of rose is “cold.” It can alleviate discomfort in the liver caused by too much pressure and can also relieve depression.

Rose tea: Use five or six rose petals to make tea. The best time to drink is during the day, when feeling the pressures of life.

Lotus Seeds Cleanse the Heart

Lotus seeds taste sweet, and their nature is neutral. They’re also suitable for anybody, and can be helpful for relaxing the heart. When the weather is hot and it’s difficult to sleep at night, lotus seed can get rid of the heat and calm the heart.

You can use 1/2 ounce to 3/4 ounce of lotus seeds to make a sweet soup, which is very suitable for summer drinking!

Lily Drives Away Boredom

Lily tastes bitter and sweet - its nature is a little cold - and it has the effect of freshening the lungs. When you feel depression and boredom, it can help you fall asleep easily.

Lilly soup: When stewing a soup, one can add 1/2 ounce to 3/4 ounce of lilies. Fresh lilies can also be fried with a little salt, which is very delicious.
