Insomnia Ideas

Can’t sleep? Well the first step is not to worry about not sleeping.

Here are a few ideas on dealing with insomnia

Here are some ideas to deal with insomnia

• Get up and make yourself a cup of mint tea
• Don’t drink any tea or coffee after 8.p.m.
• Avoid alchohol – anything more than a glass and you tend to wake up in the middle of the night.
• Get a night light light bulb (8w bulb won’t wake up your partner)
• Personal radio by your bedside (ipod or an mp3 player will have the same effect)

Getting to sleep :

• Read a book until you fall asleep
• Don’t go to bed too early
• Drink mint tea as a night cap
• Tell yourself a story in your mind to get yourself to sleep. Eventually after a few nights you will fall asleep during the story. Afterwards you should only need to tell yourself this story and you should be able to get to sleep.
• Counting sleep doesn’t seem to work.
