So you are lying in bed ready to go to sleep…but for some unknown reason you are still awake…why is this? Many of us experience this same problem and may lie in bed for 30 minutes to up to a couple of hours and this could obviously drive you loony!
These are some awfully simple and easy to effect pointers to help you to fall asleep faster.
Three awesome techniques to fall asleep quicker
1) Meditation
Something extremely simple you can do to fall asleep quicker is to meditate. When I say meditate I refer to you finding a nice quiet place for yourself and spend between 10-15 mins consciously permitting yourself to relax. In this time you should sit down in a comfy position, close your peepers and focus on your body. Target how your legs and arms feel, how your torso and head feels, focus on your breathing, feel your body and clear your consciousness of your uncontrolled thoughts. Attempt to slow everything down, feel your heart beat slow down as well as your breathing as you take big, deep breaths. This is a very relaxing exercise helping relax your body, making it easier for you to drift off to sleep. Listening to some quiet, relaxing music can also compliment this meditation.
2) Hot shower or Bath
Having a pleasant relaxing shower or bath could be the excellent way to end your day, and is an efficient way to drop off quicker. What occurs when you have a hot bath / shower is that your body temperature increases slightly, and then it drops a bit. This small drop is what will help you to sleep more deeply, as temperature is a key part of what makes you knackered. furthermore it helps you to relax and this of course helps you to drift off.
3) Light
Light is a significant element in getting to sleep. If your room has too much light in it then you’ll have difficulty getting to sleep. When your eyes are exposed to light your body produces certain hormones that make you wake up, and this is a genuine bad way to drop off to sleep faster as your body is now attempting to wake up. Ensure that your room is as dark as you can make it. This includes turning off the TV and PC, and covering up dribbling light from under doors and around curtains.
