Sleep on It: Herbs and Other Ways to Help You Sleep Mindfully

by Psychic Advisor: Empress Tarot

How many times have you said, “Let me sleep on it and I’ll get back to you?” Letting things simmer in our subconscious overnight is a wonderful way to approach problem-solving.  In fact, this concept can be taken to the next level (sympathetic magic, if you will) and we can literally sleep “on” whatever we have in mind.

There are so many ways to sleep on whatever’s bothering you – if you have money concerns, try sleeping on a $10 or $20 bill. If you’re faced with a difficult decision, write each choice down on a piece of paper and tuck it in your pillowcase. I’ve found that worn out tarot decks are outstanding in this capacity. I choose whichever card seems to match the current situation and write or draw on the front of it. If you’re thinking about a particular person, write their name on a piece of paper or put their photo under your pillow.

I like this concept so much that I found a flat silk pouch with a flap that snaps shut, and I put whatever objects feel right inside. Then I tuck the pouch inside my pillowcase and go to sleep.

Objects to Sleep On

There are so many things you can sleep on other than paper and money, however. Here are a few ideas to help you get started.

Flower petals – Flowers have meanings of their own.

Apple Blossoms = good fortune

Blue Flax = domestic happiness, evening

Primrose = everlasting love.

Herbs – Herbs also have meanings of their own.  (See the list below)

Tokens – If your problem is lack of communication, choose an object or a token that reminds you of the person you’re missing.

Feathers – Feathers also aid in communication because they represent the element of air.

Soap – If you’re wanting to clean up some area of your life, sleep on a few chips of your favorite soap.

Fabric paint – If it bothers you to sleep with anything inside your pillowcase, get some fabric paint and write or draw on the case.

Embroidery – Embroider flowers, feathers, whatever you like, instead of painting it on.
