Having said that, do you think its wise to continue having restless nights when you can EASILY do something to fix the problem? Of course you don't, cause you'd be an idiot if you did! Start using these 5 simple remedies to sleep better and longer at night.
They might not cure ALL your insomnia problems, but they are sure to help a great deal.
5 Remedies to Sleep Better...
1.
Make the room colder instead of warmer.
A warmer sleeping environment usually leads to a large amount of tossing and turning, not to mention frequent wake ups during the night.
2.
Make sure EVERY light is turned off.
When any sort of light makes contact with the body, melatonin production is stopped, if not severely slowed.
Melatonin makes it possible for you to fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.
3.
Eat a light snack.
The amino acid L-trypthopan is found within milk, chicken, turkey, and even certain types of nuts.
Eating a small snack which contains L-trypthopan will make getting to sleep far easier.
4.
Keep regular sleeping patterns.
Among all the remedies to sleep better, this is one of the most important.
Your body gets use to certain things at certain times.
If you go to bed and wake up at around the same time each day, well, your body will become "programmed" to do so in the future.
5.
Use herbal remedies to sleep better.
You can drink herbal tea, take a bath with herbal oils, or put some herbal oil onto a handkerchief and slide it under your pillow.
Aromas from certain oils/teas -- lavendar, passionflower, valerian, roseflower, jasmine, etc.
-- have very strong sleep inducing effects, not to mention they easily heighten relaxation.
Do this RIGHT before, if not while getting into, bed for the best results.
