Natural sleep aid

I really enjoy the sleepy time tea but isn’t always strong enough. I don’t take melatonin as it can not be taken long term. I love Valerian as it is 100% natural and can be consumed as much as you want with no side affects. It is a plant root and a smelly one at that, thank goodness you just pop a pill or two. This keeps me asleep most the night and not groggy in the morning. I also gave this to my kitten when he broke his leg and it kept him from moving around a lot.
