Guest guest Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 It's 2:00 AM in the morning and you are wide wake wondering if getting back to sleep again will ever happen! You lay in the bed, aimlessly starring at the ceiling. You close your eyes. Nothing. You can't sleep. You roll over, punch your pillow, and take a deep breath. You close your eyes again. Nothing; what now? If this scenario seems to match your nightly routine then you need these tips. First off, get up! Get up, get out, and get moving. Of course this seems like it would be doing the opposite of what you're actually trying to accomplish but in reality, it's getting your mind moving. By turning your mind back on it's like you're awake again. Once awake, your mind will begin to slow down until eventually you're tired again and you can softly drift off to sleep... again. When you get up, it's also important that you don't turn on bright lights or do anything which would need too much brain power (school or work related things). Instead turn on a dim lamp and read an uneventful book (one you've previously read or even a manual).
