How to Get Better Sleep! | Ingrid Nilsen

[@the.gr8danes]

When you're a university student and you DREAM of being able to have nights like this and not drooling over your study notes falling asleep at your desk... lol.

[@lmfaoxLEAH]

Agreed! I am a full time undergrad student and work 30 hours a week but always prioritize sleep.

[@CarinaandZara]

SO TRUE!

[@jaychi1729]

just wait until you're out of college, you'll wish you were back in school

[@HaDealio]

Jay Chi good one lol I was gonna say just wait until your a parent if ur planning to have kids then u wish u were back in college and wonder y u ever complained

[@TheCrunchyMom1]

HaDealio not necessarily true. I am a single parent graduating college in May with a 4 year old. Parenting was way easier when I wasn't going to college for the first 6 months of my sons life... it's not helpful to anyone to say that you have it harder than them. Parenting is hard, college is hard. End of story

[@summersunsets13]

this is exactly the night routine my therapist recommended to me (anxiety and depression). no screens for 1-1.5 hours. relaxing activities (reading, showering, bathing). and valerian tea ☕️❤

[@maylily25]

I'm an eye mask wearer too! I love the light pressure over your eyes. It communicates to my brain that it's time for sleep. A lot of people think it funny or weird when I mention it to them, but I discovered the eye mask magic five years ago and I still love it.

[@abigailrae4118]

See my problem is when I have tea before bed, I have to pee like 30 minutes after I fall asleep. Like how do people do that

[@emalee2027]

XD

[@kyeoptawerk93ah]

same problem! i don't know how people are able to do it either

[@heyyitssj]

Abigail Rae i am literally the same way lol

[@sorrisidiniall8075]

i think it's because thats not a normal tea with theine, but a kind of chamomile tea or infusion or something like that

[@MissSeaworld8]

hahah not a problem :P

[@SamanthaNikoletta]

I know your video focuses on things to do right before bed to help get better sleep, but just wanted to throw out a few ideas for people in the comments about what they can do during the day to get better sleep. i used to have chronic insomnia and these little things that my doctor suggested really helped me :) 1) no caffeine after 3pm 2) exercise in the morning instead of at night 3) use your bed ONLY for sleep and sex - no more eating/netflix in bed. the last one was the hardest for me because i used to do EVERYTHING in bed... homework, netflix, reading, talking on the phone, eating, you name it - but forcing myself to make my bed each morning and not get back in until bed really helped the most!! xx

[@crystaldong9670]

Just what I needed it the most! I haven't had a lot of sleep because of exams lately

[@moonflower7640]

This morning, I went to bed at 5:30 am.. Spring Break just ended a week ago and I still cannot seem to ease into going to bed at 10 or 11.. I'll keep these tips in mind before bedtime!

[@freefalling91]

"Difficult Women" is one of my favorite books right now! The stories.... I don't have words for them but I feel that everyone should read this book!

[@VivienneGucwa]

I found this video so soothing to watch. I am also an eye mask person and swear by the pressure on the eyelids. I can't sleep without it now.

[@audragracen]

Sleepy time extra tea has changed the way I sleep! Starting this school year I couldn't sleep and wouldn't be in a deep sleep. When I began using sleepy time extra I feel like I'm fully asleep and rested :)

[@EvieLouiseHudson]

YOU OWN MY FAVORITE BOOK! All the Bright Places is the most amazing book I've ever read.

[@shelbysimcha5867]

The things that help me the most are gentle asmr videos (lol), soft relaxing music, that same exact tea, or just laying in bed with the lights off trying not to think of anything at all..letting my mind be clear and empty. Great video :)))

[@EvieMasterton]

You always seem to make videos that I need. I've recently been really struggling with sleep, something I've never experience in my life before. I never used to have issued falling or staying asleep and recently I have so much anxiety about it. I've developed regular vivid nightmares that are honestly terrifying. They haunt me in my day to day life and I always remember their every detail. I also have started waking up in the night which I never used to do. I think I'm lacking in magnesium so maybe this is the key! Also already looking up diffusers as soon as you mentioned the lavender smell. Thank you!

[@keshaellis7070]

Loved this Ingrid i struggle so much with sleeping. Love you girl! x

[@littledoe1617]

In the middle of exams and exhausted 😩 needed this!

[@MGerrity]

Thanks for the lovely tips, Ingrid! I also think scents are super important in a bedtime routine -- one of my favorite things to do is spray my pillow/sheets with lavender linen spray before going to bed, it's so soothing!

[@madyshae7890]

Thanks for giving us a quality, non sponsored or incentive driven video

[@Luch]

Since I have so many troubles getting asleep I found your video try helping and it was so soothing to watch. I'm subscribed to all of those playlists now, that's so cool thank you !

[@anyafergusonrnningen549]

Your videos always make me calm tbh! They always make me relaxed, because they make me happy, and make me forget everything that has been stressing me out. Lots of love xx

[@josephinedoyle4304]

I find this video so comforting and relaxing!! I'm definitely going to try those Spotify playlists!

[@jencasey316]

I love that your eye mask is also from an airline! I dont use mine at home but last year I had a 2 hour each way commute that meant I had to be on the train REALLY early so I used the one I got on an Air France flight to block out the lights (and always sat in the quiet car with nature sounds and/or relaxation music on my headphones) to sleep the whole way into the city (I didnt worry about oversleeping and missing my stop cause it was the end of the line so the conductors would wake anyone up who didnt get up themselves). I also use it on vacation if the hotel curtains dont block out all the light or if I need to take an overnight bus or train somewhere (or just to sleep in the car if I'm not driving).

[@alyssaspencer2869]

Love this! I suffer from terrible night sleep... have my whole life! & I feel like I've heard everything under the sun about tips for sleep but I love the magnesium idea & the exact play list you used I'm going to try out! Such a calming video 👏🏼

[@15EmilyThomas]

I love when ingrid gets all cozy with her videos

[@abbypineau6925]

I LOVE ALL THE BRIGHT PLACES!!!

[@kassanova2874]

Ugh why are you the just the cutest person on KZbin 😩❤️

[@debbiemilne7747]

all the bright places is such a good book!

[@Juvenalpinedastaysfit]

Omg !!! My favorite playlist on Spotify. Also some of my favorite books.

[@iloveyou58121]

I love you and your videos Ingrid! You're so inspiring. You should write a book!

[@DLM7576]

Wishing you sleepy dust and sweet dreams, Ingrid! 😴🌌🌝

[@amyfilice2983]

I have to wear an eye mask to sleep. I initially used it to block out light before we purchased thick curtains. Fast forward 6 years later, I cannot sleep without one. 🖤 Huge fan of diffusing essential oils to make my house smell amazing. 🖤 Love making hot tea before bed. I'm a big fan of the "Nighty Night" blend by the brand "Traditional Medicinals." For something warmer and slightly thicker, I love Lauren Conrad's bed time drink recipe from her website. ☕️

[@JanaKF]

is anyone else watching this because they can't fall asleep?

[@shelbysimcha5867]

I always watch youtube when I can't sleep too lol

[@mirunadima6990]

me lol

[@missarwen37]

I like very much your video quite smoothly, very relaxing, i could look at them for hours 😊

[@allalisalma3237]

Jana Kristina omg i was going down the comments just to write this xd its midnight in our country !

[@AmandaSoapFan]

Same here about to go to bed again. Saw this earlier. Been watching Ingrid for 7 yrs since we are almost the same age 👩🏻‍💻

[@SirisLife]

Watching this right before bed, and it was so nice and calming!💕

[@starsdaisuki]

love that you were watching Grey's.

[@jordyn_bloom]

Love love love the book All the bright places!!! ❤

[@MalloryMileham]

I've been wanting to try out a diffuser--looks so peaceful!

[@abilatham6753]

omg all the bright places is my fav book ever!

[@NaturElleDIY]

Hii Ingrid ! Love lighting a candle before sleeping , it's so cosy ;) BISOUS !

[@abbyegan-green1140]

I really love her videos. they make me feel relaxed x

[@nadinekhoo2844]

Loved this video. I feel calmer just from watching it

[@AngelaCruzTube]

I'm loving this video for the doggie cameo! I used to have a Pomeranian myself and they're so cute. No wonder Sleepytime tea makes me feel sleepy, I didn't realize it has Valerian root in it!!! Love this video so much 💕

[@theaudiobookaficionado]

it's also important to note that valerian can have bad reactions with certain medications so if you are on regular meds, double check that they are okay to take with those special sleep aid teas!

[@CrazySuzy89]

Your voice calms me 😍

[@makeup4life97]

Yay! My Saturday is made!!!!

[@qingng_]

I'm here early ilysm Ingrid you inspired me to cut my hair short you are so professional and I think that your really clean and so cool thanks for all your amazing videos I'm so glad I'm your subscriber!

[@arjumandbano121]

This is such a warm and cozy video I don't know if that makes sense but yea

[@kvnthmpsn5273]

[@tahminabegum7065]

Thanks for this video it was sooo helpful Ingrid and you are literally goals, love ya!!! I love how Therapeutic this was and these Hacks was amazing honestly and I can't wait to see more amazing content from you

[@ModernMolliee]

I recently got Naturally Calm, I'm totally going to try adding it to Sleepy Time tea! Great suggestion!

[@tessmcleod1995]

Omg love this video! I always find it so hard to fall asleep! For sure going to try some of these! Thanks Ingrid xx

[@IndieRokGirl]

All The Bright Places!!!!

[@l.leila.m]

4 am I'm watching this after a sleepless night and I'm definitely gonna try out these tips and create my own night routine bc I'm having problems falling asleep

[@DLM7576]

I would also recommend an acupressure mat, like Spoonk or Shakti. It's excellent at helping me wind down before sleep.

[@reaganleigh8640]

Thank you Ingrid, So much!! Lately I haven't been getting a lot of sleep and I'm maybe thinking it's because I dont have a consistent routine.. Your advice in all of you videos really help :)

[@jenniferschroen1778]

Loved this! I got an inexpensive sound machine, and its worked wonders. I also really like lavender pillow spray, as well as lavender hand cream (there is this new one from Bath and Bath Works which is DEFINE!). Sweet dreams!

[@LadyPeters]

loved this Ingrid! Added the Sleepytime Extra & Natural Calm to my amazon cart! thanks for all the tips!!

[@emilyb1311]

this made me so sleepy and also hype to go to bed because I LOVE BEDTIME.

[@mariasalgueromoran8866]

[@camprockstar101]

Really needed this today! Thanks for posting Ingrid!!

[@yeseniaojeda2715]

This looks so relaxing! 😴😴😴😴 I need a diffuser.

[@sarapatterson4910]

I love your channel everything is so helpful and useful. Thanks for always posting.

[@meagan1818]

This video was very soft, just so neat.

[@theserenewedroots]

I feel the same about the slight pressure on the eyes, I usually sleep with a little pillow on top of my head. Also a cool mist humidifier is awesome for a good night's sleep. I always seem to be hot at night or wake up feeling hot in the middle of the night.

[@stinalai]

so many soothing vibes loved this vid ingrid!

[@livlovesmakeup2356]

That sleepy time extra tea is the BOMB

[@Ammeta]

99% of y'all well just skip over this comment but the 1% who didn't hope i have a nice day and your beautiful inside and out no matter what anyone says ❤️😌❤️

[@lenameemarciano4068]

I stopped at 0'13 just to scream because you do have Blankets from Craig Thompson ! This book is amazing, worldwide (I'm french) ! So glad to see it in some other people's life ! Okay, clicking play again ! Love !

[@poposhina]

I'll definitely try your tips. Hope it will give me a better sleep.

[@PrinccessMo]

[@irene227]

[@karyfrancisco1383]

I bought Natural Calm based on the last video you had it in! It's really helped!

[@tahminabegum7065]

[@הדרשחם]

This video is so calming!! I love it Thanck you Ingrid

[@katetea2957]

I used to love videos like this before I had my now 1 year old daughter. Now stuff like this hilarious 😂 I miss sleep.

[@rainbowunicorn228]

Ingrid is everyone's bed time goals. Like please can I do this at night?

[@stephyclaws]

I listen to rain sounds too, I listen to them to drown out the sound of my tinnitus. for me the main things I need are my rain sounds and a pitch black room... black out blinds are a must 😀

[@lentzleah]

Ingrid you should check out Saje. Amazing oils to diffuse and THE perfect lavender infused sleep mask!!

[@tangerpan]

omg I have to agree with the JetBlue eye masks -- that was the first time I ever felt comfortable with an eye mask and I fell asleep like a baby.

[@AnishCapiche2607]

Thanks for this ❤️

[@veganpowercouple4486]

Like these non-sponsored videos!!

[@09hcoop]

I have recently discovered Valerian root tea before bed too. my favorite is Bedtime by Yogi.

[@KimmyCharise]

I loved this vid! 😊😴 I've found that a pre-sleep routine so important too. Also loving Pukka Nighttime tea 💕☕️💕 and This Works Deep Sleep pillow spray.

[@AmandaSoapFan]

Added this to my favourites list 😊 How is it that every time I'm not feeling my best or 100% your videos help make me feel better. 💜Thank you Ingrid for making similar videos to my own content. P.S. Our daily night time routine is exactly the same. So we do the same thing 👍🏻🇨🇦😋

[@SarahMarieNolan]

I just picked up Blankets from a local bookshop by me! What did you like about it, Ingrid? It's very different from my normal reading so I thought I'd give it a try.

[@isabellestein5058]

Love you Ingrid!!!💕💕💕

[@clarafiderio]

I NEEDED THIS!!! Thank you so much Ingrid💕 I love you xoxo

[@Mrillest1010]

I love this.

[@clairedownes582]

[@evermore2244]

[@WeightMedicinewithDrMeghanMD]

Great tips! Will have to recommend that "Night storms" playlist to my patients :)

[@abbyegan-green1140]

[@keziandrada]

Love this video! Simple and calming :)

[@hiraahmad9375]

[@TheCharmbandit]
