does counting sheep help u fall asleep? what helps u fall asleeep?

Answer 1

I think you are supposed to be bored to sleep. Relaxing helps you to fall asleep. Try breathing in to a count of five, and out to a count of 10. After five minutes, you'll either be bored enough or relaxed enough to go to sleep.

Answer 2

I just count-not sheep, just numbers. It's so boring that I get sleepy but it takes enough of my attention to keep me from thinking about other things. Sometimes I imagine counting and endless number of steps down a hill-this will help if you need to visualize something-again, it's boring but it keeps you focused.

Answer 3

I start at 1000 and count backwards it takes your mind off the day
