Kill Your Insomnia
1. Make Sure Your Sleep Area Is Media Free - The biggest factor in not getting enough sleep usually comes down to the fact that you are trying to do it in a media zone. Computers, television, and radios are huge distractions in the bedroom and contribute to a huge amount of the insomnia epidemic. The lights, sounds, and general distractions will get you off to a bad start right away. Leave the media in the living room and you are headed in the right direction.
2. Get On A Sleep Schedule - Without a sleep schedule, your body never knows if it is day or night. Get yourself a regular sleep schedule and stick to it like glue. If your body gets in a sleep routine, the natural sleep process will often fall right into place.
3. Find The Right Sleep Temperature - You would be amazed at how many people attempt to sleep in extreme temperatures. Whether it is too hot or too cold, this can really mess around with the natural sleep process. Get the temperature right around sixty degrees and keep it there in your bedroom for optimal sleep.
4. Quit All Caffeine During The Evening - Caffeine is horrible for you to ingest at all, but most people can not put it aside entirely. Compromise with yourself and only allow it before 3 in the afternoon or so. Earlier than that is ideal, but certainly you should have no caffeine after three. Over a period of time, try to shift to caffeine free options. Caffeine addiction is easier to beat than you might think if you do it gradually.
5. Turn Off Your Worry Alarm Early - Many people sit and think about all the problems, concerns, and details of the coming day as they try to go asleep. This is like fighting your body and it’s natural attempts to sleep. The problems you may or may not face tomorrow are not going to change or be affected tonight while you sleep. Start winding down and considering your mental health an hour or two before your bedtime at the least to get your mind sleep ready.
