Make your room totally dark (Not even night light), run cold water over feet or soak and leave them uncovered (To keep cool).

Hot bath and dim light.  Stay away from sexy women.  They tend to keep you awake.

I heard of more people lately who can't sleep . What's up with that ?  Is it something going around ? ;-)

Anyway, have a radio in your bed, and listen to talk shows or oldies, or country, or classical music. You'll soon grow sleepy. If that doesn't work, take two Tylenols. It makes a lot of people sleepy. I does me.

1. Regular Sleep & Wake Schedule
2. Soothing Bedtime Routine
3. Eat correctly Before Bedtime - Finish eating a minimum of 2-3 hours before your family bedtime. Eating or drinking an excessive amount of may make you less comfortable when settling down for bed.
4. Get some exercise regularly - Exercise regularly. It is advisable to complete your workout a minimum of a few hours before bedtime. Generally, exercising regularly makes it easier to go to sleep and contributes to sounder sleep.
5. Avoid Caffeine - Avoid caffeine (e.g. coffee, tea, sodas, chocolate) close to bedtime. It may keep you awake. Caffeine is really a stimulant, which means it may produce an alerting effect.
6. Say 'NO' to Nicotine! - Avoid nicotine (e.g. cigarettes, cigarettes and tobacco products). Used close to bedtime, it can result in poor sleep. Nicotine is another stimulant. Smoking before going to sleep makes it more difficult to go to sleep.
7. Hold Off around the Alcohol - Avoid alcohol near to bedtime. Although many people consider alcohol as a sedative, it really disrupts sleep, causing nighttime awakenings. Consuming alcohol results in a night of less restful sleep.

Hope these pointers help some people!
