Frequently asked questions

Exercise Regularly

Is it just me or does it seem as if exercise cures everything? Exercise regularly, but make sure you do not do it too close to your bedtime. Your health affects the quality of your sleep. Some exercises that work great include walking, running, fencing or even yoga. It is important to get oxygen and move the body around. This will definitely help you cure insomnia.

Write down Your Worries

Write down Your Worries Are you having problems sleeping at night? I like to keep a pad of paper by my bed and write by thoughts and worries down. By doing this, I will no longer have to think about them in bed. This will give me lots of time to deal with them tomorrow when I wake up. How does this sound?

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

would it be too weird to say I really don't like sleeping? I only sleep because it's necessary. I usually breathe in from one nostril and breathe out from another while holding the other closed. It somewhat helps. Cold makes me falls a sleep. On worse sleeping cases I wet my hair, pat water on my arms and legs and then come to bed for the warm feeling.

Very nice post indeed. Many very useful tips. I know some people need noise to fall asleep and others have to have total silence. Sleep is extremely important for the rest of your health..I have been there before, and after numerous tests and a trip to ER, it turned out that I was suffering from sleep deprivation. Lack of restful sleep can really mess up your Circadian Rhythm.

Hi I've had problems ever since I was a baby. It takes me at least 3 hours every night to fall asleep unless I'm extremely tired. My mom thinks its because I have the television on when I sleep but even when I don't I can't fall asleep for hours. I asked my mom if I could talk to my doctor but she doesn't think it's a problem. I've used all of your tips but nothing works. I'm constantly tired and almost always in a bad mood. I often have sleepless nights. Thoughts race in My head some are good some are bad. I just want to be able to sleep normaly. Please, I need some tips. I'm desperate to get normal sleep. Do you think I should consult my doctor? I would really appreciate some help! Thanks so much

Thanks, I've been having trouble getting to sleep (used to being up all the time). Yesterday I was tossing and turning in bed for 2 hours before finally drifting off! horrible ):
