Ivan tea works great as a preventative sedative. Herbal infusion using Ivan tea is prescribed mainly for headaches and insomnia. Tincture of angelica (angelica officinalis) is recommended for rheumatism, nervous system disorders, and hypertension.

St. John's wort is known primarily as an anti-inflammatory and analgesic, but this herb also has sedative properties, helping to combat depression and anxiety. A herb like thyme has a calming and mild hypnotic effect. It is recommended to take an infusion with thyme in the afternoon or at night.
