stay away from sleep aides i am on them and they are addictive. Anyway sleep aides do not work for a lot of people actually i have heard of people staying awake for longer periods after taken a sleep aide. Just do not try to go to sleep. Lay in bed and meditate. Close your eyes and relax every bone or muscle in your body and think of each part of the body you are relaxing while doing that.

Meditate on the goodness of God, His many blessings on your life, and you will be in Heaven with Him for eternity.

In the Beginning God created heavens and earth.
God gives you air to breathe and sunshine to enjoy.
God gives you water to drink and food to eat.
God gives you a wonderful body and sound mind, to live.
God loves you, and you are precious to Him.
Son of God died on the Cross to save us from condemnation.
Jesus’ love is boundless and everlasting.
We have the hope of Heaven through Jesus.
Life therefore has fantastic and glorious future!
(Digestion of above can even prevent depression and suicidal thoughts.)

Insomnia (sleeplessness) is due to stress, dietary and medical
problems. By making small lifestyle changes like having a fixed
daily routine, relaxing and eating properly, insomnia can be
cured. I found the information at http://tinyurl.com/jfzpz useful
for getting sleep.

I have had problems sleeping also, what I found that was the problem was that I was exercising two hours before bed time...but when I switched it to five hours before bed I was out like a light. Also I have "Sleepy Time" tea right before bed.

Sleeping is a vital activity that you need to regulate in order to maintain good health. Without proper amounts of sleep, memory and motor skills can become impaired, and your body’s effectiveness towards battling illness can decrease. I’m sure you’re also familiar with the irritability you see in friends or co-workers who aren’t “morning people”.

Lack of sleep usually springs from a multitude of factors, from emotional stress, to poor sleeping, exercising, and dieting habits.

The key to improving your sleeping habits lies in knowing how many hours of sleep you need to feel refreshed and energized when you wake up. It’s also essential to have an environment that’s conducive to sleeping, with habits that’ll help you catch those Zs.

Sleepy Surroundings

Make sure your room or bed is fine-tuned for sleeping. That means shutting out sources of disturbance that could wake you. If your room tends to flood with light, wear a sleep mask.

Living near high-traffic roads? Wear earplugs. Also, make sure your bed is comfortable. Sleep on a proper mattress or pillow; mattresses that are too firm, saggy, or too old will cause pressure points that in turn promote tossing and turning.

Sleep Rituals

Be sure to wind down at least thirty minutes or an hour before your bedtime; do something relaxing and enjoyable, like read a book, drink some tea (caffeine-free), or listen to some soft music. Doing something excitable will only keep you up longer.

Sleep Only When You Need It

Sleep only when you feel sleepy; and if you’re not asleep within twenty minutes, try doing something dull until you’re tired again. Try to avoid watching television; exposing your eyes to too much bright light may trick your brain into thinking that it’s daytime, and time to wake up.

Beds are for Sleeping In

Try to use your bed solely for sleeping, as opposed to lying on it while watching television, reading, or any other activity (sex is the only exception to this rule). Using your bed to sleep in will help your body and your brain to draw a connection; bed equals sleep.

Consistency is Key

Go to bed at the same time every night, even on weekends; this will help your body know when it’s time to sleep, and will help to set your body’s chronometer. This is how people are able to sleep and wake up without using an alarm clock; their bodies know when to wake up, and when to sleep.

Light Snacking

Sometimes it helps to eat something before bedtime, because sleeping on an empty stomach isn’t always the best idea. A light snack is ideal, because a heavy meal will give you more energy, keeping you awake. Vouch for a warm glass of milk, or some turkey. Both contain tryptophan, a natural sleep inducer.

What to Avoid

Try to avoid caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol at least four to six hours before bedtime. These are all stimulants that hamper your efforts to fall asleep. Alcohol may seem to help you sometimes, but will actually interfere with your sleeping patterns. Chocolate is another thing to avoid; most chocolate will contain some form of caffeine. Also, don’t drink too much liquid; you don’t want to wake up in the middle of the night for a trip to the bathroom.

Take a Hot Shower/Bath

A warm shower or bath can be very relaxing; massage away the stresses of the day and come out feeling clean and refreshed. Also, while the warm water can raise your body temperature, it’s the drop in temperature afterwards that will help to induce sleep.

Exercising No-No

It’s a common misconception that exercising before you sleep will tire you out. In fact, exercising before bedtime will actually increase your metabolism, and have the opposite effect instead. If you must exercise, be sure to do so at least four hours before you typically go to sleep.

Write Your Stress Away

Stress is a major contributing factor of sleep depravation. Many people lie in bed at night, mulling over their worries. A good solution to this problem is to commit a specific time during the day (“worry time”) to think over the same worries. This way, you’ll be able to tell yourself to solve your problems the next day, instead of while you’re supposed to be asleep.

Another option is to write down the same stresses on a notepad, and then figure them out during the day. The more relaxed and stress free you are, the faster you’ll fall asleep.

____________________________
have a good sleep

Being well rested can improve your body’s overall health, and you’ll discover that you have more energy during the day. Sleeping is one of the most relaxing and recuperative things that you can do for your body. So once you're awake, you can seize the day!

Try to empty your mind of all thoughts and worries. That should help.
