How In The World Can I Get Better Sleep?

[Secret22]

I find my self waking up constantly through out the night and feel exhausted every morning and through out the day. What are some tips and ideas that you think will help me actually sleep through the night?

Maintain a good night routine. Stay away from heavy foods 2 hours before bed. Make sure when you exercise you do so at least 4 hours before bed, this gives your body time to slow down and not still have your blood pumping. A hot shower before bed can help as well. I would also talk to your doctor about this. There maybe more to.

Good tips :)

Make your bed for sleeping only. Take EVERYTHING out and away from your room. No tv, no cell phone, no ipod, no reading books, no eating, no lounging in/on your bed. ONLY SLEEPING. By doing this you'll create a better connection between your brain and sleepy time.

Thank you!

You might actually have a medical condition. I would suggest telling your doctor and having him refer you for a sleep study.

Ill try that too :)

A new mattress will do wonders if you get the right one for your preference. (I. e. hard or soft)

Turn off your cell phone and computer and do not touch them for a week

exercise 2 hours before you plan to go to bed.

[Marstalk]

That is to close to bed time.

my doctor told me 2 hours before.

[Marstalk]

Huh mine told me no later than 4 hours before bed.

@Marstalk well, I hate most doctors but this is the first good one I've had in years. I'm going to go with what mine says. (:
