Overview
A four-herb night blend designed to quiet a busy mind, soften body tension, and support steady, restorative sleep. The nervines (Valerian, Passionflower, Skullcap) help with the now—easing overactivity and settling the system—while Ashwagandha adds foundational adaptogenic support for the stress patterns that can undermine sleep over time.
Active Constituents (combined spectrum)
- GABA-related compounds: valerenic acids/valepotriates; flavonoids such as baicalin, apigenin, vitexin (linked to calming effects).
- Adaptogenic lactones: withanolides (Ashwagandha) for stress resilience.
- Alkaloids (trace): harman-type derivatives in Passionflower (traditional mood-calming interest).
- Volatile oils, tannins & polyphenols: contribute to overall soothing, antispasmodic, and antioxidant activity.
Medicinal Properties (as described in herbal literature)
- Nervine relaxant & tonic
- Mild sedative / hypnotic (supports sleep onset & quality)
- Anxiolytic & thymoleptic (eases tension; gently lifts low mood with exhaustion)
- Antispasmodic (helps release somatic tightness)
- Adaptogenic (supports balanced stress response)
Traditional Uses (combined)
- Evening wind-down for “tired-but-wired” states and racing thoughts
- Encouraging a calm transition to sleep and fewer night wakings
- Soothing muscular and gut tension that disturbs rest
- Feeding the nervous system during periods of stress, overwork, or convalescence
Scientific Insights (summary)
- Valerian, Passionflower, Skullcap: studied for GABA_A receptor modulation—associated with reduced neural excitability and improved sleep parameters.
- Ashwagandha (withanolides): clinical studies suggest support for stress reduction and sleep quality via HPA-axis modulation.
- Combining nervines + adaptogen may address both immediate arousal and underlying stress load that impact sleep continuity.
Energetic / Spiritual Qualities
Grounding roots (Valerian, Ashwagandha) draw energy down; cooling, quieting aerial parts (Passionflower, Skullcap) settle the mind. The overall signature is settling, softening, replenishing.
Contraindications
- Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding without professional guidance.
- May enhance sedatives or alcohol—seek advice if taking sleep meds, benzodiazepines, antidepressants, or MAO-inhibitors.
- May cause drowsiness—avoid driving or operating machinery after use.
- Thyroid considerations: use caution with Ashwagandha in hyperthyroid states.
