A student of mine found this herb useful for aiding in sleep, and sent me a link on it.
Ashwagandha Stress Reduction, Neural Protection, and a Lot More from an Ancient Herb
Quote from: Dale Kiefer
Ashwagandha, an exotic Indian herb, has remarkable stress-relieving properties comparable to those of powerful drugs used to treat depression and anxiety. In addition to its excellent protective effects on the nervous system, ashwagandha may be a promising alternative treatment for a variety of degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Ashwagandha has powerful antioxidant properties that seek and destroy the free radicals that have been implicated in aging and numerous disease states. Even more remarkable, emerging evidence suggests that ashwagandha has anti-cancer benefits as well.

I heard a lot about this at holistic health school. Just never got around to trying it.
