How to Sleep Better at Night

1 Comment

If you’re having trouble sleeping at night, you’re probably feeling frustrated and aggravated. Figuring out how to sleep better at night isn’t always easy. It can take a lot of time to figure out what the problem is and how to fix it. But there are many things you can try that really don’t take much time or money. And you might just hit upon the one thing that can really help you get better sleep at night.

Something you can try if all of the standard things aren’t working is to play music at night or play recordings that are things like rainstorms or sounds of the rain forests. These types of soothing sounds often help people drift off to sleep. Because there are no words to listen to you don’t concentrate as hard and so your mind isn’t quite as engaged with these types of natural sounds as they would be with music.

If you prefer music, choose something soothing with a very lilting melody rather than something that builds a lot of tension. And try to avoid lyrics because those do make you pay attention which can halt your efforts at falling asleep. Learning how to get better sleep of course means you need to experiment and you might find that a certain song, even one with lyrics, helps you fall asleep. These are just suggestions that tend to work for most people. You need to figure out what’s best for you.

If the soothing sounds don’t seem to help, maybe too much noise is the problem. Ear plugs that mold to the shape of your ear are a good option as long as you don’t have ear problems that they could exacerbate. You might also invest in a sleep mask or room darkening shades to make your room darker and more comforting to help you sleep better.

    It would be best to consider the activities that we are doing everyday. I think we have to make sure we get proper exercise as well, 20 minutes everyday will do, cardio exercise will do best too. I was having trouble sleeping before, but after reading an article about ways to eliminate sleeping troubles, it really helped me a lot. I’d like to share the article i have came across with – http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2010/10/02/secrets-to-a-good-night-sleep.aspx
