Tips for a Better Nights Sleep
Tip 1: Calm Down Before You Go to Sleep
We all have a lot going on these days with work, kids, and all types of other stresses. Before you go to sleep you need to take a few minutes to cool down and relax from the pressures and events of the day. This doesn’t have to be any big meditation session or anything like that. You just simply need to take ten to fifteen minutes to relax before you actually lie down and fall asleep. If you try to go immediately from 100 mile per hour to zero, you might initially fall asleep but chances are you will rise sometime during the night. Doing this routinely will also help your body prepare for sleep each night. Your body will become accustomed to going into sleep mode after your cool down period. This will also help with getting a good nights sleep.
Tip 2: If you Wake Up During the Night, Don’t Worry About It
If you find yourself waking up during the night, don’t worry about it. Most people believe that once they have awakened they have ruined their sleep for the night. That’s not true. There are a couple of things you want to do if you find yourself awake at an early hour. First, don’t look at the clock to see what time it is. All this does is make you more awake, and that is definitely not what you want. You actually don’t want to do anything that is going to cause to think, or cause you to become more awake. The best thing to do is to just lay there and thing very soothing thoughts. Something that you know will put you right back to sleep. The key is to get back to sleep as quickly and seamlessly as possible.
Tip 3: If You Can’t Fall Asleep, Get Out of Your Room
If you have gone through your pre sleep ritual, and you are laying in bed and you don’t fall asleep in fifteen minutes you should leave your room. Staying in your room laying there and not falling asleep could cause you to have some issues down the road. If this happens repeatedly it is possible that you could begin to associate your room and specifically your bed with a bad sleeping place. So, if you have been laying there for 15 minutes and cannot fall asleep you should get up out of bed, trying not to turn any bright lights on, and go into another room. The reason you don’t want to turn any bright lights on is because you don’t want to wake anymore that you currently are. Once you are in the other room you should do something that relaxes you. Maybe listen to some soothing music, or do some breathing exercises, or even go through your pre-sleep routine again. Only when you feel yourself getting sleepy should you go back into your room.

How to Fall Asleep?
Let Go of Thoughts, Be at Peace
One of the best ways to fall asleep is to just let go of all your worries, thoughts and fears. Just stop thinking about them. Let go of the past and the stresses of the day.
You have done your best for the day and now no matter how much you think, it can't be undone. Meditation before going off to sleep also helps a lot. This will slow down and relax your mind, which is in overdrive, and help it settle down in sleep. Think about some of the most relaxing moments in your life! This works for me, and may work for you too. With practice, it becomes easier to let go, though it may seem difficult at the start!
Reduce Your Caffeine Intake!
Caffeine is a stimulant which keeps your brain awake and alert. It is contained in coffee and cold drinks like coke. So if you are drinking too many cups of coffee, tea or coke, after 12 pm, your brain is going to be in overdrive for at least 12 more hours after consumption. So stop consuming too much of caffeine through tea, coffee or coke! This is one of the ways to fall asleep faster, that will definitely work!
Reduce Alcohol Consumption
You may think that having that small liquor peg will help you sleep better, but actually it disrupts your sleep pattern in the long term! Using alcohol or sleeping pills as ways to fall asleep, will make your body addicted to them! These are some of the worst ways to fall asleep! Why use such artificial ways to fall asleep, when you can fall asleep instantly through natural means? Let go of the alcohol and the sleeping pills. Try to relax, sleep will follow.
Exercise!
Remember the days when you instantly fall asleep as you have worked hard all day or trekked or worked out a lot? When you have exercised in the morning and physically worked hard all day, falling into a deep slumber is not a problem. So make it a point to exercise every day in the morning . Also if you have a sedentary lifestyle, take a break, go for a walk and keep your body active physically. I am not asking you to get exhausted, but just stay physically active throughout the day. A hard day's work will guarantee you sleep!
Have a Warm bath or Shower
Having a warm bath or shower before going to sleep induces slumber instantly. Just have a warm shower, dress up in a lose night dress, darken your bedroom and I will guarantee that sleep will follow!
Avoid a Heavy Meal Before Sleep!
Avoid having too much food before going to sleep and do not stay hungry either. Drinking a glass of milk or a glass of water before going to sleep is a good idea. Milk contains 'Trytophan' which induces sleep very easily! So having milk is one of the best natural sleeping aids!
Follow Your Sleep Cycle
Once you start sleeping well, fix that time as bed time, and stick to the routine! Maintain this sleep routine and avoid disrupting it by staying awake unnecessarily. This is because there is a center in our brain called the suprachiasmatic nucleus which controls our biological clock. If you maintain a routine, your biological clock will be tuned accordingly, and you will have no sleeping problems!

Techniques to Fall Asleep Fast
* Stop Thinking: Yes, I know the womenfolk will find that very hard to do. But, often the reason why people face problems in sleeping is due to the existence of thoughts that keep them excited. So let go of all thoughts.
* Mental Preparation: Like everything else, it is a very good technique to mentally prepare yourself for sleeping, as well. Keep telling yourself one hour before you go to bed, that you will sleep when you get to bed and that you NEED to sleep when you get to bed. It works!
* Hard Work: Hard work is often the secret shortcut to blissful slumber. No kidding! Make sure that you not only tire your body, but also your mind during the day. This way both, your body and mind, will crave for relaxation (which you will get when you don't think of anything in bed). As such, as soon as you hit the sack, you will start drifting off

Trouble Falling Asleep
Attitude about Sleep
Falling asleep is all about the attitude. Insomnia is hugely related to your thoughts about falling asleep. Most of us don't trust our bodies to fall asleep. We have a fixed preconceived notion, that, sleep isn't coming easily tonight. This thought leads us to deprive the body of sleep. Tonight, try something different. Instead of switching on the TV, just because you can't fall asleep, cuddle up in your bed and get in the most comfortable position. Focus your mind on sleeping, concentrate on your inhalation and exhalation. Within 30 minutes of this, you will be sleeping like a child. Sleeping is all about attitude.
Incessant Worrying
In the maddening race of life, we do stumble on a few challenging tasks, causing worries and tensions. Incessant worrying about situations at work, at home, with friends or about relationships, is one of the definite sleeplessness causes. You need to understand that there is a time and place of everything, and your bed is NOT the place you should be worrying about life. An hour before you hit the sack, pen down your thoughts and feelings, in a diary. As you vent out your bottled emotions, the mind will have its sanity back and a little space for focusing on the important task of sleep. Maintain this diary for as long as you want, so that one day you can look back and see the trivia, that gave you sleepless nights! Read more on trouble sleeping at night.
Sleeping Positions
Some of us, have favorite sleeping positions. Usually, those of you who keep tossing and turning in the sleep, have a problem finding the comfortable position. Find your comfortable position, by resting on a position for a while, instead of tossing right away. Change your pillow to a soft one, if you have a hard pillow. Whichever side you choose to sleep on, it is important that your body is in a straight alignment. If you suffer from heartburn or GERD, try sleeping on your left side, to soothe the pain. So, read about how to go to sleep, to sleep peacefully tonight.
Restlessness
Restless leg syndrome, sore leg muscles, sleep starts (random body jerks just as you are falling asleep) or periodic limb movements in sleep (PLMS) also known as nocturnal myoclonus are more reasons that lead to trouble falling asleep. Regular physical activity, about 4 hours before bedtime, can help in lessening the jerky movements. Trouble falling asleep in children, is many a times related to restless leg syndrome, due to extreme tiredness. Massaging can help relax the muscles and eliminate the jerky movements in children.

Five Tips for Better Sleep
Set a Routine: While some people advocate going to sleep when you feel tired, in reality, it is the setting of a sleep routine that will actually help. Better sleeping habits include sleeping and waking up at the same time every day, even on the weekends. For those struggling to sleep, a schedule helps reinforce your body's sleep-wake cycle, and makes falling asleep easier. A better sleeping pattern is to sleep only in the nights. However, if you can't do without your afternoon siesta, limit it to half-hour during mid afternoon.
Wind Down: It is important to get yourself ready to sleep before you actually go to bed. Activities that help calm you are the ones you should be doing before going to bed. They include listening to soothing music, drinking a glass of warm milk or taking a warm bath or shower and dimming the lights. Reading helps some people fall asleep so you can try it. Watching TV is not a good idea, as it has the opposite effect of winding down. Here is some information about ways to fall asleep.
Bedroom Environment: One of the ways to get better sleep is to create an environment in your bedroom that is conducive to sleeping. Start by making the bedroom dark whenever you sleep and and try to reduce all kinds of noise. Also maintain the temperature and air circulation at a level you are comfortable in. If you need earplugs, blackout curtains and eye covers to achieve this, so be it. Also make sure that your bed has enough room to allow you to take a better sleeping position, and that your pillows and mattress are comfortable.
Stress Control: For many people, it is worry and anxiety that keeps them up at night. Finding an effective way to deal with stress, worry and anger will help you in getting better sleep. Realize that there is no point in worrying about things that are out of your control, and find a way to let go of anger and resentment.
Food & Drink While incorporating better sleeping methods, try to ensure that your last meal of the day is had at least two hours before sleeping. For those prone to heartburn, avoid spicy or fatty foods. Contrary to popular belief, alcohol reduces your sleep quality, and wakes you up later in the night, so skip the nightcap. Other stimulants, such as caffeine and nicotine, can keep you awake. One is advised to not have caffeine for eight hours before bedtime. Apart from these, if you drink too much of fluids before you go to bed, you are likely to wake up at night to use the toilet.
