Tips for a Better Sleep

BY Nancy Janiola IN , No comments

Workout. Exercise relaxes muscles and relieves tension. But don't exercise for at least two hours before you go to bed.

Relax and unwind. Meditation, massage or a warm bubble bath will help a lot.

Set your internal clock. It's important to establish a consistent time for going to bed and waking up. Your body becomes used to hitting the sack at a regular time, and this helps you fall sleep more easily.

Divert yourself. After tossing and turning and still can't sleep a wink, try going to another place, reading a book, or listening to some music.

Factor food in. Be careful of what you eat. Spicy, greasy, or heavy foods may not digest well, and can cause you to wake up during the night with an unhappy stomach. Also avoid caffeine. A glass of warm milk is good to soothe you to sleep

Pray. Remember, if you've counted too many sheep already, maybe it's time you talk with the Shepherd.
