Insomnia Spell - Hecate's Bath

Once upon a time, according to legend, Hecate had a temple in the ancient city of Colchis, surrounded by vast botanical gardens. Her priestesses, including her most famous devotee Medea, were famed for their botanical knowledge. No doubt they could concoct a sleeping potion or two. This simple bath uses two of Hecate's sacred materials - honey and lavender - to soothe the way to sleep and encourage healing dreams.


  • Gently warm some milk. The quantity is up to you: the more milk, the more luxurious and soothing the bath.
  • When the milk is warm, carefully add honey, stirring so that it blends. (Otherwise the honey will just settle at the bottom.)
  • Remove from the heat; add several drops of essential oil of lavender, or several handfuls of freshly picked lavender flowers.
  • Add to a tub filled with warm water.

If you are suffering from sleep problems such as insomnia or obstructive sleep apnea, you need to consider this problem seriously and adopt specific measures at the earliest to get back your sleep. Regular exercising is one of the options to ensure sound sleep at night. Altogether, if you are unable to get adequate sleep during night, you can undertake certain initiatives to overcome your sleep problems such as fixing your sleeping as well as waking schedule and abstaining from alcohol, nicotine, tea, coffee et al before hitting the bed.

Thank you. I suffer from bad insomnia (less than three hours a night undisturbed, and then about two hours at the most there on after) particularly around full moon. Do you have any suggestions regarding such disquiet - it's not anxiety during the night as such, but I do worry about losing sleep, and I feel drained of energy.
