Subscription boxes that help you sleep
Lack of sleep is a real issue for me unfortunately. I have never been a great sleeper, and that just hasn’t improved as I have gotten older. Between my issues with Restless Leg Syndrome to just waking up too early, it seems that I am always exhausted. In fact, I recently had a sleep study done that confirmed everything – I am not sleeping much! I was excited to receive a Snoozebox (subscription boxes that help you sleep), which contains several items to help one sleep.
What’s in the box
Well, all kinds of good things!
One thing that always comes to mind when I hear about sleep aids, is Melatonin, so I was happy to see that it was included in the Snoozebox.
My Snoozebox also contained Valerian Root Tincture, which sounded familiar but I couldn’t remember its benefits. Naturally, I had to look online to learn more about it. Supposedly it helps with insomnia, emotional well-being, anxiety and a plethora of other issues and ailments. Apparently some people use it for sleep when they are trying to taper off of sleeping pills. I am so happy to discover this product.
According to the Livestrong website, Melatonin and Valerian Root should not be taken at the same time. You can, however, use Melatonin one night, and Valerian Root the following night, etc. Basically just switch every other night. I have also heard, and according to the Livestrong website, Melatonin shouldn’t be used with any other type of sleep aid – natural or otherwise. Both are safe on their own, but I do suggest that you contact your doctor if you have questions, and before you take either.
I was happy to see that tea was included in the box too! The tea from the Moon Tea Company is delicious, and very relaxing.
The folks at Snoozebox sure thought carefully about what would make someone sleepy and relaxed. There was a bag of bath salts, and a bottle of lotion too.
What I like to do is take a nice warm bubble bath, using the Sandy Land bath salts. I also have a nice mug of the hot tea, and I play some soothing music on my phone. After I’ve soaked for awhile and after drying off, I apply the yummy smelling lotion. Between the warm bath, the lotion, salt, Melatonin and Valerian, I find that I not only drift off to slumberland easily, but my skin is really soft too!
I love that there is no pressure with Snoozebox. If you aren’t happy with the boxes for any reason, you can simply cancel. They don’t make you jump through hoops to cancel your subscription (like some other ones do).
The pricing is very reasonable. Boxes start at just $29.97 – and their boxes always cost less than if you were to purchase the items separately and on your own. OH and shipping is free!
If you are {or know someone who is} suffering from insomnia, or if you or someone you know just needs a little help to unwind before bedtime, Snoozebox is the perfect solution. It’s simple to get started!
Neat, huh? I am delighted that there is a subscription box that helps you sleep – I know many people (besides myself) who would definitely benefit from Snoozeboxes!

These look like some great items to help with sleeping better. The chamomile bath salts would be great to try.

I love the idea of this box. I am always looking for healthy solutions to help my son sleep better. He has trouble falling asleep and wakes up several times a night. He is 13 and it makes the school day difficult.

I used to have trouble sleeping, but my three children are so adept at making me tired, that I am asleep before I hit the pillow every night.
Cynthia C
I have absolutely no trouble sleeping but I have a friend who does. I’ll mention this to her.

I’m pretty lucky in that I have no trouble sleeping but I can see how this would be valuable for those that do have trouble sleeping.
Sarah L
Good concept. Due to the medicine I take I can’t have either Melatonin or Valerian.
Dana Rodriguez
This is a unique subscription box! I have issues sleeping sometimes so I need to give this a try.

If you can’t sleep, I guess it’s worth it even if it just makes you think it makes you sleepier.

I love chamomile, it’s very soothing.
