How to use coffea cruda 200 for sleep


​​Homeopathic remedies can be very helpful to help with insomnia and Coffea Cruda is one that you may have heard off. Dosing the remedies is very easy and it can help to give you a good night sleep.

If you are going through a life transition or simply you are stressed or anxious about something, you may experience insomnia.  You may be going to bed and take really long to fall asleep, you may be waking up at a certain time at night and be unable to settle again or you may continuously wake up during the night.

This can leave you exhausted and on waking you can feel as if you have not had a good night rest. This, in turn, it will have an impact on your everyday life and your mood.

 Homeopathy worksheet how to choose your remedy

​Let's look at different remedies and methodologies to help you get back to sleep and stay asleep during the night!

BANERJI PROTOCOL TIP

The Banerjies use
  •  Coffea 200 for general nervous anxiety when falling asleep and
  •  Ignatia 200 for sleeplessness after upsets or grief twice per day.
This tells us that the majority of people will respond well to sleeping problems with these two remedies.


​6 USEFUL REMEDIES FOR INSOMNIA TO HELP YOU GET BACK TO SLEEP
​

COFFEA CRUDA 200C
This is my favourite #1 night time remedy! it is most helpful for adults and children. This is one of the first remedies to consider.

This remedy is great when there is overactivity and overexcitability of the nervous system.

Clue: you may be feeling as if you had too many espresso coffees!

You may need this remedy if you are suffering from the effects of either 
  • good news  or
  • you are worried and anxious about something. 

This a remedy to help you relax if you are feeling over excited with joy and you are experiencing an increase in activity thinking about it, making you unable to settle at night. This is also a remedy for ailments from excessive laughing and playing in children and as a result, they can not settle down at night.

But this remedy will also help you to resettle if you are suffering from bad effects of sudden negative emotions( such a love disappointment or worry and you keep thinking about them. Either way, this remedy will help you get back to sleep! 

Sleepless on account of mental activity, the flow of ideas and nervous excitability.  You will find difficult to fall asleep because of some ideas will force themselves into your thoughts.

Restless sleep, and frequent sudden waking up. Awake until midnight.

Nervous palpitation may accompany insomnia. Stars up easily when sleeping and consequently waking up.

You may awake at every sound, and you find impossible to sleep if any light is on.

Finally, this is also a great remedy to resettle a sleep cycle that has been disturbed, either by looking after an ill person, by over studying at night or by slight disturbances such as a baby teething. 

ACONITE 200
This remedy is very useful for the effect or fear, fright, shock or anxiety and fear of the future that is preventing you from falling asleep.

You may wake up after midnight and you will be sleeping very light afterwards and in the morning, you can feel as if you have not slept at all.

You may prefer to sleep with the light on or the door slightly open.

Palpitations on waking.

You may be suffering from remote effects of fright that still playing in your mind. Fear of the fright remains.

Sleeplessness can be accompanied from nightmares about things that occurred during the day and have distressed you.

This is also a good remedy for Insomnia of the aged.

IGNATIA 200
Insomnia that stems from grief, worries and personal loss. Persons suffering from long concentrated grief. [Have a look at my grief and depression blog here]

You may be also suffering from frequent yawning and chewing motion of the mouth during sleep.

Waking up at night from 2-5 am, with very light sleep all night.

Dreams are repetitive of the same thing all night. With reflections and deliberations.

DOSING THE REMEDIES 
​
I like to prescribe these remedies 1/2 hour before going to bed and again at night if woken up again.

​NUX-VOMICA 200c
You may find that this remedy is helpful to you if you are suffering from sleeping problems as a result of too much work and rush of ideas. 

This is a remedy from sleeplessness from mental strain produced by either office work or over studying for exams.

You may be waking up at 3-4 am and a rush of ideas may crowd your mind preventing you from getting back to sleep.

Anxious dreams about work and things that need to be done during the day.

 ARNICA 200
Arnica is a great remedy for sleeplessness from being overtired from physical overexertion.

So if you have been doing too much gardening, gone for a long run or done too much physical exercise and you are suffering from sore muscles at night in bed that are preventing you from sleep, Arnica will help you to get a good night rest!

Compare with Arsenicum which is also indicated for muscular exertion.

ARSENICUM ALBUM 200C
Arsenicum sleepless is indicated in cases that stem from fear, anxiety and worry. 

There is a tremendous fear about death, making it a suitable remedy for those that have been diagnosed with a chronic disease.

I have written more about homeopathic remedies for anxiety on this blog.

Also for someone who is a really anxious person in general and gets quite fearful about most things preventing them from sleep.

You may be feeling like electric shocks during your sleep and wake up during the night, especially at 3:00 am in the morning, experiencing a hot feeling and nausea. However, you can wake up from midnight onwards as well.

You may feel worse by been alone, and children may often want someone to sleep with them at night.

You may be having dreams of death and full of worries and anxiety.

If you are needing this remedy to settle you at night, you may dread going to sleep and feel very restless. On waking up, it may be difficult to get out of bed, feeling really tired and you may feel sleepy and tired during the day as well.

This is also a good remedy if you are mounting climbing that has overexerted your muscles and body.

I'm transitioning from my jet lag. I think I'll buy some sleep medicine from an online store to battle the nights that I can't fall asleep. As you said, insomnia can leave me exhausted, so I hope that it can help.

For jet lag, I would suggest a different strategy. Use a combination that targets the jet lag. There are many but this one is a good one: Arnica+Cocculus+ Nux vomica+Gelsemium in 30c. take every 3 hours during the flight and for the next two days. Use the other remedies in the blog later on for a more chronic problem.

As I am going through Perimenopause Hormonal Imbalance transition, Sudden and Abrupt Waking up between 4 to 5 and not being able to sleep after that and Former Deep sleep totally gone haywire so will Banerji protocol help sleep issues due to Hormonal Imbalance?

Coffea can help to take the edge but in your case, you will need remedies to regulate your hormonal system.

I think my sleep problems started years ago with menopause. I wake up often, every little sound disturbes me, sometimes I wake up hot and I often wake up around 5:00 and never really get back to sleep. Do you have information on menopause or should I try one of these remedies? Is there a Banerji protocol for menopause? Thank you!

Then your best bet is to start with the cause of the problem, menopause. Have a look to the hormonal section of this blog.https://www.villacortahomeopath.com/blog/helping-the-digestive-system-liver-support

How long COFFEA 200C should be taken for?
My symptoms match with this remedy.

200 C is high potency right? T

For as long as needed if it helps. You can take it for a week, for a month or on and off. That potency is ok, not too high.

Interesting.
I struggle plenty with insomnia and sleepless nights are not uncommon. At this point I'm ready to try anything past my usual glass of warm milk. Are there any side effects to using any of these options?
Thanks for the read.

I'm searching for the dosage and directions. And all over the web and on the side it says to take 5 pellets of Coffea cruda 3 times a day. It seems like you said to just take it once. Not sure what to do. I have Coffea Cruda 200ch.

I am sorry about the confusion, you can take only one dose Sharyn, it will work even if you only take one pill as dose, all of my patients do that. For sleeping issues refer to how I prescribe it above on the blog, before bed and if you wake up again.

Hello
I have tried Coffea Cruda 30C x 3 'pills' twice with good effect. Is it possible to take it most nights of the week please? Thank you.

Cristina
3/29/2021 12:21:05 pm

Yes, of course! You can take coffea for as long as it helps. One pill is enough, you do not need to take 3 pills as a dose.

Hi,

I’m a 46 year old women and I’ve had insomnia on and off for 31 years. I have used homeopathy for the last 20 years and I find it really helpful. My question is, even when I have periods of good sleep (6 hours, with 3/4 periods of wakening) I still wake up everyday feeling exhausted, and struggle with my energy levels throughout the day.
Can you suggest a remedy to help?

Hello Cristina!
Does coffea could be indicated for the restless body as well ? ( when the mind is fine and the person feels tired but body cannot stop) Or what else would you suggest, please?
The person is being treating for food allergies already but it's still dificult to settle down to sleep.
I'd truly appreciate any advice.

Cristina

Yes, Coffea could also work for that state, you have nothing to lose by trying it.

Has ignatia 200 2x daily ever caused super light sleep with constant waking? I’ve started this remedy but I feel my anxiety during the day is better however I sleep more lightly with more waking. Is it possible to be taking too much? Or maybe should I go down to 30? I’m also thinking to try the Coffea instead. Thank you!

I am afraid I can not comment in individual cases that I have not prescribed for. The only thing that I can say from a homeopathic perspective, is that remedies highlight things that need to be addressed but of course, the issue here is understanding it! If one remedy does not suit you, try the other one if you can not work out what is happening .

What do you recommend for snoring? My husband has had issues for the 30 years we have been married and I really want to help him try and resolve this.

I've been trying to research it but everything I read tells of a different remedy to use.

Hi my daughter has covid and has been up literally all night. Tried chamomilla, and coffea several hours later. She feels ok in the body, but simply cannot sleep. Any virus related remedies that you've heard specifically for sleep issues with this particular virus? Believe it's omic. If that matters

I took one dose 200c coffea cruda and had a pretty good sleep (I’ve had insomnia for about 5 weeks due to menopause). I’m not taking any other meds. Should I continue with the 200c each night? How long should I take them? Or should I switch to 30c?
Thank you!

Reply
Cristina

If is helping in 200, why would you switch to 30? Use what is working! You can take it for as long as you need to and continue to help you, don't worry.
