I hope this series of blog posts has helped you get so good at sleeping that you can do it with your eyes closed!
A few final suggestions to help you fall asleep quickly:
- Make sure that mattresses and pillows are comfortable
- Keep bedrooms clean and decluttered
- Keep electronics out of the bedroom
- Turn the thermostat down (even a few degrees makes all the difference)
- Complete an exercise program in the morning. (Research has shown this decreases stress hormones and improves serotonin levels)
- Get plenty of sunlight during the day to stabilize circadian rhythms
- Use essential oils to encourage relaxation and sleep
- Listen to soothing music before bedtime
- Relaxation exercises or certain types of yoga may also be helpful
Until next time, may your sleep be restful and restorative!
