This book has many positive aspects. I did not discover many errors while reading this book; this proves that it was professionally edited. The author's writing style is effortless to understand, well organized, and thorough. The cautions on some popular herbs were my favorite parts of this book. For instance, I learnt that nutmeg should not be excessively taken. Most people detest herbal remedies because of how bitter some taste. However, this book shows that unpleasant herbs do not have to be endured in most cases. They can be mixed with one or more pleasant ones to give a better taste and scent. Even though modern drugs are more standardized than natural remedies, the latter is much safer if taken under the guidance of a trained herbalist. With that being said, the author highlights numerous herbs for common ailments such as asthma, digestive problems, skin conditions, menopausal symptoms, and premenstrual syndrome, among others. If you are interested in knowing how big the herbal medicine industry is, the description of some herbs, their origin, active constituents, and benefits, this is the perfect book for you. The author also detailedly provided the percentage of people that rely on herbs and the benefits of herbal bedtime teas.

Furthermore, this book details the effects of sleep deprivation, good sleep habits and tips, side effects of sleeping pills, types and stages of sleep, relaxation techniques, and the reasons for insomnia. I enjoyed participating in the breathing exercises and relaxing techniques that the author explained, which turned out to be very relieving. Every detail in this book makes it important to have a copy with you at all times.

This book does not have any downsides. It is not only a book for advanced herbalists but a must-read for beginners. It lists all the essential herbs, how to use them, and why you would use them. For the reasons mentioned above, I rate this book four out of four stars. If you have difficulty sleeping or are interested in making herbal remedies, I highly recommend this book to you."
