Steps To Cure Insomnia

Fact Checked

Stick To Regular Hours

Create A Relaxing Sleeping Atmosphere

  • Your bedroom must be reserved for relaxation and sleep. Keep it as silent and dark as you can. It should also not be too hot or too cold
  • Temperature, illumination and noise should be managed so that the bedroom atmosphere is a tranquil as possible.

  • It’s difficult to get sleep on a mattress that’s too soft or too hard, or a bed that’s too small or old.
  • If you have a dog or cat that sleeps in the bedroom with you, think about moving him/her to another location if they make a noise at night.

Exercise Frequently

  • Exercising on a consistent basis, such as walking, can assist by relieving some of the strain built up through the course of the day.
  • Make certain that you don’t do energetic exercises near to bedtime as it might keep you awake.

Drink Less Caffeine

  • Reduce the amount of stimulants such as tea or coffee, particularly in the night time. They hinder the sleep process, and they stop you from getting a peaceful rest.

Overindulging Should Be Avoided

  • Too much alcohol or food, particularly at night, can disturb your sleep routine. Alcohol might help you go to sleep at first, but it will interrupt your sleep through the course of the night.

Avoid Smoking

  • Smoking is not good if you trying to get a good night’s rest. It takes longer for smokers to fall asleep, they wake up more frequently, and they regularly have a more interrupted sleep.

Relax Before Bedtime

  • Listen to relaxing music, take a bath or do some mild yoga to ease the mind and body. Your GP might be able to suggest a helpful relaxation CD.
