Have you ever wondered how you can really prevent insomnia? This is because insomnia is a terrible illness that deprives you of energy everyday if it is not prevented. This is why I have written today. I would like to show you a few helpful tips that you can use to prevent your insomnia once and for all. These are the helpful tips: • If you tend to wake between 3 and 5 am, you might be suffering from adrenal exhaustion and stress. • The pineal gland can be affected by electromagnetic fields, so avoid using your mobile phone in the evening. • Stop smoking. Nicotine is a stimulant and has been linked to many sleep problems. In one recent study, smokers were more likely to report problems falling and staying asleep compared to non-smokers. • Regular exercise aids sleep and if you have had a particularly stressful day, whereby you are making lots of adrenalin, I would suggest that you go for an evening walk to help use up the adrenalin or else you may lie awake for many hours when you tried to sleep! • Natural sunlight helps you to make serotonin and thus melatonin – which aids sleep. • Go to bed at a regular time each night. If you want to look younger, make it around 10pm as the two hours of sleep before midnight is truly anti-ageing. Our systems, particularly the adrenal glands, recharge and recover between 11am and 1am. • Don’t watch violent or thought-provoking TV and movies before bed, and don’t take work to bed. Read a novel that completely takes you mind away from the day’s events. • If anything is on your mind, write it down and deal with it in the morning. Keep a notepad by your bedside. • The darker the bedroom lighting, the more melatonin you will produce, which helps you to stay younger longer. • For people who need to work odd hours or women with young babies, try catnaps, or power naps as they are now called, which can be really refreshing. • If your feet are cold, it’s virtually impossible to sleep, so wear socks in bed or have a lot of water bottles to warm your feet. Thermoregulation – the body’s heat distribution system – is strongly linked to sleep cycles. Even lying down increases sleepiness by redistributing heat in the body. • Treat yourself to a massage using essential oils of lavender, marjoram, rosewood or sandalwood, add a few drops of any/or a combination of these oils to almond or jojoba oil and massage around your neck, back and shoulders to help relax your body and aid you in natural sleep. I hope that these tips are of use to you in helping you prevent your insomnia from acting again during the night.
