Hop pillow for restlessness
Hops is the plant brewers took because it makes beer bitter. But women took it long before, because it makes the night soft.
The cones smell of dry hay and resin, and if you rub them between your fingers a sticky yellow dust clings to your skin. It is called lupulin, and that is where the power sits.
This is not something to drink. It is a pillow you place beneath your own, so the scent rises to you through the night, slowly, without you having to do a thing. For the nights when your head keeps going long after your body has given up.
