Hey you. There may be plenty of reasons for this. Are you making sure the general environment is comfortable? Is there an underlying cause keeping you from sleeping? Are you generally thinking or stressing too much? Iâd suggest we find a way for you to dive deeper into the root through introspection/therapy. Until then, here are some things you can try:
Sleeping in a room with the temperature 2 to 3 degrees colder than the body temperature, thatâs why studies show youâll fall asleep in a room thatâs too cold than in a room thatâs too hot.
Regularity is the most important solution, regularity in sleep. Go to be at the same time, get up at the same time, no matter weekend, weekday.
Screen usage and even other light - Screen usage delays melatonin release by 3 hours. And even just switch off most bright lights and dim it down 1.5 hours before going to bed. Itâs called MIDnight because it was how we were designed to sleep, with 12âoâclock as our natural middle of the night according to biological rhythms. Now midnight is our time to check our Insta/emails one last time...
Meditate and Yoga.
Good physical exercise in your day.
Hereâs a personal exercise I do for myself - I call it the compassion exercise when I meditate. I basically contemplate on all the incidents in the day where I felt something negative for myself or for others, even if I just build a negative judgement of them...and then try and find their root, understand and empathise with them, maybe contemplate on what they might have been through, and then let go of any negativity from my head and in this release is liberation! I can go to be with a calm, clear, positive mind!
And oh, just a hot bath also has shown good sleep as a result in a few studies.
