Cures for Insomnia

One way to get to sleep consistently is to establish a bedtime routine. Doing this helps your body to understand that coming soon is sleep. Our brain likes to have signals about what’s ahead. These signals help prepare us, our brain and our body for what’s ahead.

A bedtime routine should involve relaxing things. Try start this routine about an hour before you want to go to sleep. I would recommend leaving out things that are stimulating – like going online, watching tv, playing video games, etc.

Instead do things that help you wind down. Listen to relaxing music, change into your pajamas, read a book, drink some chamomile or sleepy time tea. Low key things that will help you unwind, de-stress and relax.

When you start to doing these same relaxing things day after day, it will get you in a regular pattern that encourages sleep. It also has the added benefit of relaxation and if you have insomnia because of stress, this will help ease your stress and help you sleep.
