Get a good nights sleep

1. Have a routine you go through one hour before your target bed time every night. This might include showering and other pampering, reading, etc2. Turn off all electronics, including your cell phone, at least 2 hours before bed. This may mean investing in an alarm clock, which can be bought for a couple of dollars from the local junk shop.3. Remove electronics from the bedroom like t.v’s and computers.4. Try a relaxation or meditation CD/DVD. Try trade me for some cheapies. Also great to help distress after work and tune into home life.5. Stress monkey? Invest in some herbal based stress relief tablets or sleep aid tablets that contain no chemical base. St. Johns wort is highly recommended.6. If there is something worrying you, guilting, or angering you and keeping you awake, while you lie there come up with a good solution to the problem. Problem solving the anxiety will often send you off to sleep. Focus on being specific, when, where, why, who, what, how.7. Listen to your body, if you need more sleep, then adjust accordingly.
