If you have been having trouble in falling asleep and you probably have tried all the solutions in your how to sleep book, maybe you it is about time you consider other suggestions. Here are some more helpful tips in order to have a good sleep.
1. Do Deep Breathing Exercises -Good blood and thus, oxygen circulation is an important factor for one to have a good quality sleep. That’s why usually people with breathing difficulties have sleeping difficulties as well, even disorders. Sleeping ailments like sleep apnea and insomnia are just few of the many to mention kinds of sleeping disorders. In order to maintain a good blood and oxygen circulation you also need to have proper deep breathing. This can be done by doing a particular set of exercises. For instance, try breathing in deeply and hold it in for four to five counts, as you watch your tummy rises like getting inflated with the air you just breath. Keep it in long enough until you finally feel like you can’t take it anymore. Then let go(exhale) the air as natural as possible but try prolonging it for like about four to five counts as well. Normally, this would enhance your breathing and give you optimum relaxation later.
2. Best Mattress in the Mind -while it is true that to see is to believe, to feel also qualifies as a standard to you believing that something is for real. Apply this in your trouble falling asleep issues. Visualize the best comfort bed you have ever seen or imagine. Imagine the wonderful comfort it will offer you then gradually feel it and believe the feeling. All the softness you would ever need to free yourself from the heavy weight of stress and tension that laden your system. As you indulge deeper into that feeling or rest foresee as well your sleep as it is about to come. Then eventually, you will now then fall asleep.
3. Quit the Sheep Count -so most people think that by counting sleep they will eventually knock themselves down to sleep. But unfortunately, this is not necessarily true. Because when you count, you also perform a form of mental exercise that would basically keep your mind awake. When you are awake, there is a lesser potential to achieve a state of relaxation. So instead of counting sheep, you could just practically think of them as whole, probably a group of sheep on a grass meadow eating grass. But don’t count them okay? There are also other examples that could work too. Like imagining the wind breeze or the swaying of the tree leaves along with it.
If none of these works, you could consult your doctor to check into your condition.
