Yeah, I definitely want to try it because I have heard interesting things about lotus for other properties...not the reason I'd try it, but interesting the same. I like the idea of the calming of the lotus/holy basil along with the stimulating factors of bacopa. At the moment I am actually trying out homeopathic remedies and am having decent success. Ran out of meds due to untimely delivery of Rx meds from online company...sent to wrong address, so have been without ambien and xanax for 2 days. I can say Hylands Insomnia formula is a really good match for me and I may actually use it in replacement of ambien. It doesn't knock you out involuntarily the way ambien does/can but makes sleep your own idea, and it is a nice restful sleep. I did wake up about 5 hours in, but I am a light sleeper to begin with. The thing I liked about it was that I felt calm and soothed, not just tamped down made to sleep. I picked up the Hyland's Bioplasma Cell Salts for good measure...can't hurt right? lol gaaawd I am going to be a walking pill box! lol and then have both arsenicum album (6C) and ignatia amara (6C) for nervousness and anxiety. I don't think it is placebo, but did notice a definite difference after taking these several times throughout the day. Didn't feel as anxious/self-conscious or have the cycling thoughts that won't let up.
