Crush one clove of fresh garlic and let it sit for 10 minutes (this activates allicin).
Mix it into a cup of warm water or milk.
Add a teaspoon of honey (optional for taste).
Drink it about 30 minutes before bedtime.
Alternatively, some Japanese households place a peeled garlic clove under the pillow — believing it purifies the air and calms the mind naturally.
