This season is the worst culprit for sleep deprivation so to avoid another tossed and turned night, I turned to age- old wives tales and filled a cup with almond milk, a dash of honey, even more of a dash of nutmeg and then heated this strange liquid and let it flow past my lips, down my oesophagus and into the body, where it was hoped that it would reach the nervous system, tone it and calm it and finally, though not easily, let it sleep.
I backed this up with a ritualistic foot massage with heated sesame oil and then went to sleep externally and internally adrift. I am a snoozing buddha
