1 To dry the hops and lavender yourself, tie them in bunches and hang upside down in a well-ventilated space out of direct sunlight for 2 weeks. Alternatively, place in a low oven (about 100ºC) for 30 minutes or so until dry and crispy. Strip the flowers off the larger or harder stalks.
2 Put equal handfuls of dried hops and lavender flowers into a cotton pillowcase, and seal the end.
USE Place the pillow under or beside your head to induce sleep.
