Hello Sleep: Herbal ZZZ's Skullcap, Passionflower, Valerian
Learn about three excellent sleep herbs and how to use them.
Sleep is so important! So much of our well being depends on it. Today you’ll learn about three popular herbs known for helping us get good, restorative sleep.
I often get asked what herb is best for sleep. Really, that depends on you, and your particular situation and constitution. Still, let’s explore these excellent choices: skullcap, passionflower and valerian.
All of them are nervines that support nerve health. They are hypotensives (bring down blood pressure) that are calming and anxiety reducing.
In general, I prefer to use these herbs as tinctures, and to be taken about 20 minutes before sleep.
But First: a Simple Equation that Supports Health and Sleep
A nutrient-dense, blood-sugar stable menu made up of whole, natural foods + a healthy emotional life + exercise in fresh air and sunshine + reduce / eliminate screen time a couple of hours before bed = restorative sleep and health!
Having said that, let’s look at these three popular herbs for sleep.
Valerian is perhaps the most famous. It is a strong, warming, antispasmodic that brings on sleep, especially for folks that run a bit cooler. Think of it as a sedative that relaxes muscles and calms nerves, but if you are a fiery person with lots of heat, perhaps try a different herb.
Valerian caveats: It can cause a speedy-adrenal response in some folks. So try a small amount and see how it affects you. It has a funky odor (that you should be able to smell)!
Growing valerian is easy with a bit of shade and rich, moist soil. It’a a perennial that often spreads by seed, and gets wild, which I am happy for in my gardens.
Dosage: 30-40 drops 20 minutes before sleep. Repeat dose in the night, if needed.
Tincture formula: 1:4 = 1 part organic dried root to 4 parts menstruum of 50% alcohol and 50% water.
Skullcap is a cooling, calming nervine that reduces anxiety, soothes emotions, and gently promotes sleep. It is not a strong sedative, but will encourage sleep when needed. It’s also used for meditation and mental focus.
I love gathering skullcap. It thrives in the deep woodlands where the soil is rich and moist-often growing where streams turn to trickles in summer.
Dosage: 30-40 drops 3-5x a day; or 20 minutes before sleep, and repeat in the night, if needed.
Tincture formula: 1:2 = 1 part fresh flowering tops to 2 parts menstruum of 75% alcohol 25% water (aprox. 55% alcohol final alcohol content).
Passionflower is a helpful sedative to stop “mental diarrhea” or looping thoughts. It calms the mind, and eases the heart-used for worry, stress, and sometimes grief.
Dosage: 30-40 drops 3-5x a day; or 20 minutes before sleep, and repeat in the night, if needed.
Tincture formula: 1:5 = 1 part dried leaf, flower and tender stem to 5 parts menstruum of 66% alcohol 34% water.
Cautionary note: Please research any new food or medicine, go slowly, learn, and discuss using it with your healthcare provider. Avoid using these herbs with central nervous system depressants such as alcohol, opiates, and benzodiazepines.
Wishing you health and restorative sleep!

New subscriber. Thank you for teaching us.
Thank you for subscribing. Enjoy the channel!
If you prewarm your glass then the water wont shock it when you pour
Thanks, good reminder!
Hmmm. ...Will try it again
Sounds good!
I've just discovered you today!! Thank you very much for this video on mullein!!! Now I'm going to go watch your other videos!!!
Thanks! Please enjoy the rest of the videos!
God provides what we need on the table of earth… ppl just aren’t looking or accepting anymore 💔 Dandelion is everywhere because ppl desperately need to use it!!!!❤
Thank you, Cherly, for your comment.
Folks should realize mullein is a bi-annual..she needs couple seasons to establish, harvest responsibly please!
Thanks, yes, and we've put out these videos on learning how to forage mullein for folks who don't know her! In these I show folks how to ID, harvest and find this supportive friend. Links to those are here: czcams.com/video/djEItd4eAEA/video.html, czcams.com/video/Iyt67On1Mhw/video.html, czcams.com/video/QHLPZXFB4h0/video.html
@@DinaFalconi Dina my only reasoning behind doing this is because where I live in northern Vermont I've seen people moving into the area that don't understand what a responsible harvest is and they destroy really important tracts of land that didn't have any kind of toxic pcbs or anything in it that are pristine areas to harvest and then they just go and wipe it out
Ephedra is also good for lung issues.
Thank you!
Also, since I have a higher seed to flesh ratio in my paws paws, I use a potato masher to gently pulp the flesh I’ve scooped out, and that helps separate out the seeds from the flesh. It’s still a time consuming process but paw paws are SO worth it!
Thanks, good to hear about your technique.
Thanks for using Latin name. Wood nettle is the common name in New England. These are easier to harvest with bare hands. It's cousin...not so much. I have not harvested seed yet so thanks for useful video.
Thanks for your comment.
I think we should collectively recommend her channel to others for her to reach 100,000 subscribers for her to make more videos. Time is money. Its just a gem to share this channel though.
Hello SK, thanks for your support!!!
Spent the day removing a patch of Mullein from my property. Stuff is nasty and leaves you coughing for hours afterward. The fuzz gets in your lungs and is hard to expel.
Thanks, Stephen, for your comment. Yes, inhaling the fine hairs can be irritating!
Where to buy
Hoping you can forage for it: Please view our other mullein videos where I show you how to ID, harvest and find this supportive friend. Links to those are here: czcams.com/video/djEItd4eAEA/video.html, czcams.com/video/Iyt67On1Mhw/video.html, czcams.com/video/QHLPZXFB4h0/video.html but also you can find it at Jean's Greens or Mountain Rose Herbs.
How do you reheat, in a pot over stove?
Yes, gently reheat in a cover pot on the stove.
What about lung cancer or cancer in the lungs. Anyone with experience of this working?
Thanks for your comment.
@@DinaFalconi ok, that's not an answer!!!!!
@@kurtstergar1042 Not sure of your question so don't have an answer.....I don't have experience, but would hope others might share.
Thanks Dina
Welcome
Where do I find this herb? My lungs hurt from smoking too much crack
First of all, stop using crack and get yourself into a rehab! You can find this herb growing all over the world. Please view our other mullein videos where I show you how to ID, harvest and find this supportive friend. Links to those are here: czcams.com/video/djEItd4eAEA/video.html, czcams.com/video/Iyt67On1Mhw/video.html, czcams.com/video/QHLPZXFB4h0/video.html And if you want to order it dried you can get it from Jean's Greens or Mountain Rose Herbs.
What are you thoughts on black seed tincture?
Thanks, but not aware of black seed tincture...
When should you harvest berries for their seeds to plant?
Good question. And I have not harvested them for planting, but generally speaking when seeds are fully formed. So track them and watch for this.
If someone has RA with lung involvement can this help the lungs?
Thanks, and I don't know (I have no experience with this), but since, typically it is well tolerated, why not give it a try, and track your response. Please keep us posted.
Garlic mustard
Yes!
and shes only 20
Who, what, we don't understand your comment...?
@@DinaFalconi i like u :3
@@man-qz8ki okay, thank you.
so mullein is good for a lot of things especially breaking up phylum is the other one good for anything medical?
Thanks, I don't use lamb's ear medicinally, just enjoy it in the garden, but it I recall it being mentioned historically.
thank you for this informative video. can i crush the dandelion root and drink it with water without straining it?
If you mean, eat the dandelion root after you've infused it, I don't see why not.... give it a try, it just might not be that appealing.
The video is not so clear and evident. The plant is not explained fully. Still excellent.
Thanks, and please share more about boneset here!
I have subscribed to your channel, excellent.
Thanks for subscribing, please enjoy the 100+ videos on the channel!
Dina are you not doing videos anymore? I love this information I have always wanted to forage. I watched your liver Infusion.
Hello Dena, thanks for asking. We've paused the making of new videos, since we've created over 100 videos for you to check out on our channel. Please enjoy them!
@@DinaFalconi I will thank you.
So would it also work as a steam.inhalent??? 🤔
Thanks, it's not typically used in a steam....
Pleaseeee make a book
Thanks, I have made two books. One called "Foraging & Feasting: A Field Guide and Wild Food Cookbook" More about it here: www.botanicalartspress.com/shop/foraging-feasting-a-field-guide-and-wild-food-cookbookand one called "Earthly Bodies & Heavenly Hair: Natural and Personal Care For Everybody", more about it here: bookshop.org/p/books/earthly-bodies-heavenly-hair-natural-and-healthy-bodycare-for-every-body-dina-falconi/11815893
Thank you. How long do you need to take the tea for to clear the lungs? Yes everyone is different. But is it days, weeks, months or years? Thanks again.
As you write, everyone is different, so not sure how to answer. Generally speaking, Mullein is safe to drink, so give it a go and tell us what you learn. If dealing with an acute issue (usually taken for days) which is quite different than dealing with a chronic issue (usually taken for longer periods, like weeks).
Has anyone made ink from the root ? I would love to incorporate it into my printmaking and art 🖼️
Cool, idea! Keep us posted.
Your amazing you saved my life thank you and yhawa bless you❤.. i suffer 15 years from ibs c and gastritis that drink saved me literally
Glad!!!
Just lil question what can i add to the infusion and how much to make the infusion with antibacterial properties too? Again thank for your help❤❤@@DinaFalconi
@@ogodd9467 Not sure of your question, but if you'd like to add anti-microbial herbs to the infusion, Wild Bergamot (Monarda fistulosa) and Greek Oregano (Origanum vulgare subspecies hirtum) come to mind.
@@DinaFalconi thanks god bless you 🙏
I've learned so much from you! TY ❤
Hello Dorothy, glad you are learning! I appreciate your feedback.
How do I know I have Nettle for sure??
Hello Monica, in this video I try to show you all the ID details so you know you have the right plant. Best to match your specimen with the video images. But still, even better if you can find someone in person to verify your ID.
I trust your advice far beyond the pharmekia system. Thank you.
Hello Peter, Thanks for your comment.
thank you much! Just didi it
Welcome!
I have been trying to find out if I have the prickly lettuce and your video has just confirmed it thank you very much and carry on the good work
Glad!
And I forgot to say it was the only one that I found describing the plant in total as I was getting confused with what people were saying. Thanks again
@@straight2thepointrac Good to know! I appreciate the feedback!
WITCH!!!!! Subbed gr8 stuff
How about sciatica pain?

Deana, thanks for your comment and please enjoy the rest of the videos on the channel!
When is the best time to harvest motherwort
When it's in flower. czcams.com/video/81oxE1Qqep8/video.html.
If you drink it how does it get in the lung
Good question. As with many herbs / medicines, the body metabolizes the constituents, and then moves it through the body.
1:34 how do you make syrup out of it? Can you tap one of those trees like people tap maple trees? Either way great video.
I've never heard of any one tapping cedars tree, (like maple trees), to make syrup. Syrup has been made from the berries with sugar and water (similar to how one would make other aromatic syrups), but I've not made it.
@@DinaFalconi thats so interesting thanks for the info. I have one of these trees in my backyard and have only recently started to admire it haha
Is that a giant xylophone behind you? 😮
Thanks, it's a West African balafon made with gourds and similar to a xylophone.
Thank you Dina, you are such a pro! Please keep all the videos coming 😍
Thanks for your comment. Please enjoy the 100+ videos on the channel.
I absolutely will!
I’ve been making dandelion tea with the flowers and adding stinging nettle and rosemary leaves to the mix. We had an abundance of stinging nettle in our woods and our lawn is covered in dandelion and the moment so I’m making the best of it. I was wondering if the flower has healing benefits for the liver as well?
Sounds great: making the most of what is right there growing abundantly within your reach. Dandelion flowers are wonderful to consume, although not mentioned as a liver tonic (like it's roots); still very worthy!
Greek mountain sage ✨️ Tea. asthmatics need to know.
Thank you, and might you know the scientific (Latin) name for the plant? Good to use when addressing a worldwide audience.
Thank you for this 🫶🏼 I harvested some last year and still have it because I wasn’t sure how to use it. I’m grateful it’s so easy!
Welcome and really is so easy!
This was recommended this on my fyp, and I don't know why, but I Learnt something new today.
Glad!
How much to give to child? And is it good allergic wheeze?
thanks, depends on the child's size, weight, age, and particular issue. So can not really answer, but if the child is 1/2 the weight of an average adult (150 pounds) then perhaps half the amount = 1/2 cup (4oz) 1-3X a day.
And yes, generally speaking, can be helpful for allergenic wheezing.
Can I use fresh leaves?
best to use dried, but if you only have fresh and need to use right away, give it a go.
