Tips and tricks to fall asleep and have a better night sleep
- Get comfortable
- In order to fall asleep fast, you need to help your body. When talking about sleep comfort we're actually referring to ambient temperature (between 60.8 and 68 degrees Fahrenheit or 16 - 20 degrees Celsius - anything outside that leads do sleep discomfort), body position (use the most comfortable position that you know works for you - avoid tall pillows as they may strain your neck ), and personal clothing (cotton pajamas, or nothing at all)
- Adjust the lights to promote sleep creep
- Optimally you'd sleep in total darkness, however since that is not always the case, try to turn away from any light sources (at least until you fall asleep), employ the usage of a sleep mask, and place night lights in the hallway if light is an element that brings you peace before falling asleep.
- Turn down the ambient noise for little to no interference
- It's best to use earplugs - period. Try replacing intermittent noises with a constant 'silent' one (like a fan); create a low-volume smooth music playlist and listen to it as the 'silent' noise; listen to natural ambient low frequency noises like raindrops, running water, waterfalls, wind.
- Read a book by a soft light or watch a documentary
- Focus your mind on only this one thing.
- Breathing technique
- 6 breaths per minute in the following order: breath deep x 4, hold breath x 2, release deep breath pushing it all the way. Then repeat until you go to sleep.
- Play a casual semi-boring game to speed up the sleep process
- Solitaire, crossword puzzle or sudoku - nothing to engaging should do.
- Sleep with a pillow or folded blanket between your legs
- It helps the body reduce stress/pain and helps with the body's natural layout position, hence enhancing comfort and leading to a better sleep.
- Mediate
- Drink some 'calming effect' herbal teas
- Watch what you eat at night
- Avoid anything with high sugar content; eat bananas, avocado, peanuts, almonds, figs, and milk-based drinks, peanuts with skins, whole almonds (for more fiber), walnuts, pecans, sunflower and pumpkin seeds, pistachios, red peanuts with skins;
