Millions of individuals have sleeping problem. They find it tough to get to sleep and even harder to stay asleep. The result-they resort to taking sleeping pills. Sometime in a while a sleeping pill may be a good thought, but not all the time. Here is how to fall asleep and remain asleep without having to take sleeping pills.

We all know how essential sleep is. Sleeps professionals say that the adult body needs from 7-9 hours of sleep every night to function at its best. But because so various individuals have trouble with how to fall asleep they resort to taking sleeping pills. Over time sleeping pills can be very dangerous. They can become harmful to a person's body and worse, they can become highly addictive.

It doesn't take long for the body to adapt to a change. When someone begins taking sleeping pills to assist with sleep it isn't extensive and that becomes the ONLY style a person can get to sleep. When that happens you are addicted and addiction is never a good thing.

Here is some opinion on how to fall asleep and get an improved night's sleep on a usual cause without the use of pills.

Stress Related Insomnia

The worst night of the week for sleep is Sunday. That is because many individuals get stressing over having to go to work on Monday. Stress related anxiety over work related issues is the cause for the majority of sleepless nights. It can be the big presentation, or the paper that is due, or all of the work you are behind on, thoughts of any of a number of things can keep you awake.

When this happens the best thing to do is not to lie in bed continuing to stress over it. Get out of bed and do something to get these thoughts out of your mind.

Sit at a table or desk with a blank sheet of paper and write everything down that is going through your head. Don't worry about spelling or grammar; just pour your thoughts out on to a piece of paper. Let it all out. When you are done with you will be a small fatigued and your mind will know it doesn't have to be thinking of these things any longer because they are all down on paper. Your mind can discontinue racing and relax-and sleep will come as it obviously should.

Eat Dinner Early

The evening meal should be eaten a minimum of 3 hours before going to bed If you have a meal to soon before going to bed your body will have a troubled time relaxing because it will be working overtime to digest dinner. As well, you will be more prostrate to dyspepsia problems.

Let the Bedroom Be for Sleeping and Romance ONLY

You can condition your body to know that when it is on the bed there are only two things that happen there: sleeping or romance. That means no TV, no reading, no arguing or heavy discussions. This will take a couple of weeks, but keep at it and you can retrain your body. If you like to read before bed, start doing it in another room in a chair. When you start to feel tired put the book down and walk into your bedroom and go to bed.

Wake a Little Earlier

Start waking up a little earlier each day (one half hour to an hour earlier than you normally get up). Your body will become more tired a little earlier in the evening and sleep will come naturally.

Relax Your Body Before Bedtime

Finally, if you wish to do something enjoyable that will help you with how to fall asleep, do something that will relax your body before bedtime. Take a hot shower or restful bath. Remain away from tea, coffee or cocoa because they contain caffeine that will keep you awake.
