Your environment has a big effect on the quality of your sleep. You probably know that your bedroom should be dark and quiet, and not too hot or too cold, so that you can fall asleep easily and get the rest you need.
Here are seven plants that will help you breathe easier and sleep better!
1- Aloe Vera

2- Gerbera
Taking care of gerberas can be more time-consuming than other plants on this list, but if you place it in your bedroom, you’ll soon realize that the effort is worth it. Gerberas emit oxygen at night, making the air in your bedroom healthier while adding color to the interior of your home.
3- Mother-in-law’s tongues

Lavender has long been recognized as a method of relieving anxiety and promoting sleep. Its scent can lower your heart rate and blood pressure and reduce your anxiety levels. If you’re too busy to care for the plant, you can use its essential oil to help you relax before bed.

Jasmine is not only pretty; it helps you sleep well. Breathing in the scent of its flowers can lead you to relaxation and reduce anxiety. To sleep better, you can also drink jasmine tea at night.
6- The spider plant
