Drift To Dreamland With These 11 Sleep Tips + Dream Water Giveaway
A few years back I watched a documentary on CBC called “Lights Out” that has drastically changed my thoughts on sleep. I knew sleep was necessary, but I didn’t quite understand the depth of how important.

There are consequences of those sleepless nights, and Harvard Medical research says “The price of insufficient sleep may be poor health. Study after study has revealed that people who sleep poorly are at greater risk for a number of diseases and health problems.”
Those diseases and health problems include but are not limited to; diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, poor judgment, obesity, mood disorders, weak immune system.
Fall Asleep Naturally
Dream Water has launched in Canada and is making waves with their fast acting, non-prescription liquid sleep aid that helps you off to dreamland naturally. Dream Water® has been approved by Health Canada as a safe, efficient and high-quality natural health product.
Dream Water contains Melatonin, 5-HTP, and GABA. Which all contribute to Dream Waters tasty blend of blueberry, citrus and pomegranate blend. This natural sleep aid is a clear formula that features fresh, clean flavors that don’t stick around in your mouth.
- GABA helps you relax and reduce anxiety by blocking the transmission of impulses from one cell to another in the central nervous system.
- Melatonin helps govern the body’s internal clock that regulates your natural cycle of sleeping and waking.
- 5-HTP helps promote sleep and relaxation and improve the quality of sleep by stimulating the production of melatonin.
Since Dream Water is a liquid your body absorbs the sleep aid at a quicker rate, and you will be off in dreamland before you know it. They suggest drinking Dream Water 30 minutes before bed.
“When I used Dream Water before bed it knocked me out in under 15 minutes. Quickly, I felt my body relaxing, and before I knew it I was drifting away to dreamland.”
Pair These 11 Sleep Tips With Dream Water For A Peaceful Sleep
- White noise. If you toss and turn at night, maybe some quiet noise won’t hurt on your bedside table. I use a fan as white noise is all our rooms, it lulls our minds to sleep.
- Avoid alcohol before bed. I know some of you like to enjoy a glass or two of wine after a long day. I think that is great and something you should keep up if you enjoy it, and it doesn’t affect your judgment. Trying having that glass when you get home from work.
- Lights out. Make your room completely black. Duct tape the little lights in your room, add blackout curtains to your windows and close the door. Since we have made our rooms black at night, our whole family has had a more peaceful sleep.
- Limit your nap to 30 minutes and don’t nap too close to bedtime.
- Cold Feet? Put on some socks to warm your feet or place a heating pad under your covers.
- Set an alarm to go to bed. That way you make sure you get the proper amount of sleep your body needs.
- Avoid heavy meals or late night snacking before bed.
- Review your to-do list. Now you may think this is silly, but if you worry like me, reviewing your to-do list before bedtime will help your mind relax knowing, tomorrow is already taken care of.
- Make sure you have the correct mattress/pillow for your sleep style. May I suggest if you’re a back sleeper to try sleeping without a pillow.
- Have a warm bath. Add in some lavender essential oils and Epsom salt; these will help you find a little Zen.
- Cheers! Drink a Dream Water 30 minutes before bed.

“Unlike prescription sleep-aids, Dream Water does not cause grogginess upon waking.” This really appeals to me as the other sleep aids I currently use do cause morning grogginess.
I had never heard of 5-HTPwhich “helps promote sleep and relaxation and improve the quality of sleep by stimulating the production of melatonin”.
I learnt that it is available without a prescription at 7-Eleven, Shoppers Drug Mart. I also learnt that it contains GABA which helps you relax and reduce anxiety by blocking the transmission of impulses from one cell to another in the central nervous system. GABA controls the level of glutamate secreted in the brain, which is the chemical that generates brain activity.
Which makes me hope that maybe it will slow down the brain activity which is why I think I have sleepless nights as my brain is so active that I cannot stop thinking about what needs to be done.
I learned that it’s non-habit forming and that’s important to me
I learned that Dream Water is non-habit forming and is a good way to help get a restful night’s sleep and not have the negative side effects associated with prescription sleep pills, such as short-term memory loss, dependency, and poor sleep quality.
I like that it is zero calories and has no sugar. I don’t like the idea of having anything with sugar before bed, so kudos to them!
I learned that it will affect different people differently. One factor might be the weight of the individual drinking it, but I’m wondering if the packaging gives a standard weight that the bottle is meant for.
I learned that it is not safe to drink Dream water and drive! Since Dream Water promotes sleep, you should not drive or use machinery for 5 hours after taking Dream Water.
I learned that I will not wake up groggy — which is a good thing!
I also wondered about drinking water before bed (i.e. how many times will I be getting up during the night if I use this product?) — I learned that the bottles are 74mL, which isn’t large at all and complies with current airline regulations.
