    The most horrible thing of shift work is your sleep and eating got to try to readjust all the time and it gets frustrating at times .

    Must try to drink tea if it actually can calm me down.

    I found out accidentally that it helps me. I have always been a hot tea drinker but started drinking Bigelow teas because they come in individual packets and keeps it fresher therefore tasting better. After a couple months of drinking one cup of Lemon Ginger with probiotics followed by one cup Cozy Chamomile with the tea bags being left in the cup while sipping (12 0z cup) I noticed that it not only helped me sleep but helped me digestively so it's a win win for me. Make sure you give it time if you decide to try it.

    I heard about the chamomile tea is good didn't know about the rest of that , so give it some time you say worth a try .. I seen in the mall raw tea what is your take on that.

    I honestly go by what I can afford so that's how I found the Bigelow. It's about $2.28 at Walmart for a box of 20 bags, so two boxes of each last me 40 days. Caffeine free is the key so if they have something you want to try at the mall go for it until you find something that works for you. Not eating at least 4 hours before bed is also helping as is eating my larger meals early in the day and not at dinner time so that it's digested by the time you hit the pillow. Took me 53 years to figure this out. Lol

    Good Morning, they sell it at many stores and I normally buy it at Food Lion but found it at Walmart for 40 cents less the other night so just depends on the store and if it's on sale or not. https://www.bigelowtea.com/Shop-Teas/By-Type/Herbal/Cozy-Chamomile-Herbal-Tea#.V1quoKJvBXk and https://www.bigelowtea.com/Shop-Teas/By-Type/Herbal/Lemon-Ginger-Herbal-Tea-Plus-Probiotics#.V1qvr6JvBXk

    Happy Friday to you too, I am on my way out for a Gma day so hope you get some relief with all these weird hours off and on. It's truly hard on the system because our internal clocks were made to be up at daylight and down at dark.
