    So her tip is to :-
    1. Have a strict sleeping schedule , u shld fix your own time for sleeping and waking up .
    2. Have a night time routine - like take a bath , brush your teeth , change yourself into pyjamas and then read some calm book .
    3. Cut the screen time 1 hour bfre bed , if you want to use the phone or tablet for reading books then turn your mobile to night mode ( yellowish light ) with the lowest brightness .
    4. Don't read some unwanted news or work emails or Facebook feed that is quite stressful and depressing
    5. Don't have heavy dinner before bed .
    6 . During morning do something active like exercising for even 10 mins .
    7. Cut down caffeine and alcohol and if u like drinking milk take it before going to bed .
    8. Do something relaxing like meditation or joirnalling before bed .
    9. Cut down the noise and light that can disturb your sleep .
    10. Use your bed only for sleep and not for surfing the internet or watching movie .
    The video is so informative ! Will try all the tips . Thank you so much ❤️

      Try limiting yourself maybe with a timer? No.. that would just put pressure on you. or maybe limit yourself with pages, depending how fast or slow you read?

    Depression, anxiety and relationship problems, all 3 at once, for the last many months. Here I am on my phone at 4:30 am, trying to find a video to fall asleep to. I've been awake 36 hours at this point, and the slightly worrying thing is I'm STILL struggling to fall asleep. It has never been this bad. Just wanna say thanks for this video, it made me feel ok about my situation, and that I can get out of it. I will start the training of my brain tomorrow. I will definitely try that warm milk trick!

    I find it very helpful to get direct sunlight every morning when possible. Some time between 6:30am and 7:30am, I spend between 15 and 30 minutes in direct sunlight. It helps keep the biological clock set correctly, and it gets me into the habit of waking each morning rather than over-sleeping.

    @giausjulius4 4 роки тому +10

    I feel like we could apply this to the rest of our lives too. Develop small routines over a few weeks and eventually they become habitual and easy. Small things like exercise, cleaning, reading, and other self-improvement routines. Take small steps until you're ready to take big ones. The effort to make yourself 0.1% better every day is a lot easier to put out than to make yourself 10% better every year and a hell of a lot more consistent. We'll see how long it takes me to get where I want to be but right now it's not that hard to do a little bit every day and now that I have ideas on how to improve my sleep I feel like I can make it even better.

      I relate so much. I always loved sleep so much, it was literally so easy. it wasn’t up till recently that my sleep has become horrific... I’m literally to a point where I DONT sleep. In fact I haven’t slept in 3 days as I am typing this.
      It’s not like I lay in bed on my phone all night, I lay there all night with my eyes closed, and not for a moment do I actually fall asleep. My mom always says “you HAVE to be sleeping because otherwise you wouldn’t be able to function” but I know for a fact I am not getting any rest. I mean how am I when the whole night I am literally conscious, thinking about different things? I actually get anxious just thinking about going to sleep because I know that I will disappoint myself once again ☹️ it causing me some serious emotional distress but I don’t want to talk to my parents about it really.
      I was starting to practice driving but now that I am sleep deprived 24/7 I don’t feel comfortable practicing because I am afraid my lack of sleep will mess me up. I also forget things super easy... so school has been horrific.
      Anyways wish you the best of luck with your sleep. It’s just good to know that I’m not the only one who feels this way I guess.

      acupcakess OMG 😭😭😭 recently I have been putting on boundaries, like after 8:00 pm I try not to think of work or stress about tomorrow, I make sure I get tired all day, listen to stories or sleep stories, meditate. I have also been practicing to let go of things and not beat up myself if I don’t accomplish something. I’m a huge believer so I’m relying my trust on God....try to find something you can believe in or try to have hope in something, I believe that brings peace 🙌 also make a to do list...I did that, it helped me, I’m not all over the place and I’m accomplishing my things ✌️. I hope that sleeps...maybe all we need to do is just let go and sleep. I have been overthinking it. For the past 2 nights I have slept so well, I have forgotten about the insomnia. Those 2 nights of peaceful sleep felt like heaven 🙌

    I usually don't have trouble sleeping, but one thing that helps me fall asleep faster is going to bed, turning off all the lights, turning on night shift mode and reading mode, and watching ASMR videos. I watch the video for a few minutes, but then I feel so sleepy that I put down the phone and stop looking at the screen. I fall asleep listening to the ASMR sounds. If you try this you need to be careful, though. Massage sounds might be mistaken for porn :D My husband makes fun of my ASMR habit all the time for this reason.

    Exercise helps the body produce serotonin, serotonin is a sleep chemical produced by the brain. Once when I was a teen I lifted weights right before bed - I hit the pillow and fell asleep right away , slept like a rock. I noticed the difference big time because I usually didn't lift weights right before bed. That is why I like having a more active day cuz I always sleep better on those days - or a full time daytime job.

Using Sterloc’s non-toxic sanitizer before bedtime is a great way to ensure your bedroom is germ-free, creating the perfect environment for restful sleep. A sanitized space can help ease the mind and contribute to a more peaceful night’s rest.

    thank you. I've battled insomnia since I was 8 years old, I even experienced anxiety at dusk, not bcz I was scared of the dark but I was scared of not being able to sleep. As a teen-late 20s I spent a lot of time studying/working in front of pc at night till my body didn't even know how to sleep at night. I only sleep after sunrise. In 2014 I had breakdown, and the next year I was diagnosed with social anxiety disorder along with bipolar. for years I live with that, but only this year I decide to change everything I can. I start putting more effort on skincare, excercise, and improve my sleep quality. Now I can sleep at 12 but still awaken at 2-3 am. I'm going to follow your tips and I hope I can sleep earlier and wake up around 4. thank you and wish me luck.
