Good habits for good sleep:
1. Exercise most days, even if it’s just to take a walk.
2. No caffeine after 7:00 p.m.
3. An hour before bedtime, avoid doing any kind of work that takes alert thinking.
4. Adjust your bedroom temperature to be slightly chilly.
5. Keep your bedroom dark.
6. Keep the bedroom as tidy as possible. It’s not restful to fight through chaos into bed.
1. Breathe deeply and slowly until you can’t stand it anymore.
2. If your mind is racing, write down what’s on your mind. This technique really works for me.
3. Slather yourself with body lotion. It feels good.
4. If your feet are cold, put on socks.
5. Stretch your whole body.
6. Have a warm drink.
7. Yawn.
8. Stretch your toes up and down several times.
9. Tell yourself, “I have to get up now.” Imagine that you just hit the snooze alarm and in a minute, you’re going to be marching through the morning routine. Often this is an exhausting enough prospect to make me fall asleep.
