What To Do When You Can't Sleep
Many people find it hard to sleep at night. They lie in bed and look at the clock, but sleep doesn't come. This is very normal, but it isn't very nice when you need to wake up early the next day.
The first important thing is to have a quiet bedroom. Turn off your phone and computer one hour before you want to sleep. The blue light from these devices tells your brain it is still day time. Keep your bedroom a bit cold, because it's harder to sleep when you are too warm.
What you eat and drink is also important. Try not to drink tea or coffee after 4 o'clock. Some people think a glass of warm milk helps them sleep better. Don't eat a big meal late at night because your body needs time to digest food.
Exercise helps you sleep better, but not too late in the day. A walk after lunch is perfect. Some people like to do quiet exercises like yoga in the evening. This helps them feel calm before bed.
If you still can't sleep after 30 minutes, don't stay in bed. Get up and read a book or listen to quiet music. When you feel tired, go back to bed. Remember - everybody has problems sleeping sometimes, so don't worry too much about it.
