Checklist for Curing Insomnia Naturally...
- I sleep on a firm mattress that supports my bodyweight fully.
I do not sink into the bed, nor do I have trouble getting out of the bed when I need to.
- Before bed, I always take a warm bath to relax myself and relieve stress.
- I make sure I do NOT watch TV or read 30 minutes before bed, as I know it will stimulate my mind and keep me from falling asleep as quickly as I would like.
- I write down all my problems & bothers on a piece of paper and leave them there before I go to bed.
This way, my problems and bothers won't prevent me from getting the sleep I need.
- I keep my bed for a place of sleep.
I don't watch TV or read while in my bed, nor do I plan my daily activities while in bed.
As soon as I get into bed, it's sleeping time, period.
- If I choose to have a snack before bed, I make sure it has the amino acid L-trypthopan; chicken, turkey, cottage cheese, cashews, etc.
- I always go to bed around the same time each night, as this ensures that my body will be programmed to know exactly when I need to go to sleep.
- I sleep in an environment that is dark and well ventilated.
If I am ever afraid of the dark, I use a night light with a timer.
- If I feel I am too tense and need to relax before bed, I drink some herbal tea or a glass of warm milk.
- I NEVER EVER take naps during the day, as I know this will prevent me from getting the sleep I need at night.
If you need to, write the above information down or print it out.
By following this checklist, you will be on a sure road to curing insomnia naturally.
Do you have to do everything on this list? No, not necessarily; but the more you do, the better your chances are of naturally curing insomnia.
