Sleep Hygiene: How to Train your Mind to Fall Asleep Fast & All Night!

[@rw9019]

1. The room set up for only two things, sleep and sex. 2. No electronics, no blue light, no cell phones, no work. 3. Air quality; best temp 62 to 68 degrees, fresh air, maybe humidifier where appropriate, air purifier or fan. 4. "Snake Plant" produces the most oxygen at night. 5 & 6 ? 7 Keep room dark. Use red night light.

[@heathertate4385]

I'm so glad I stumbled upon you guys and love the SleepOvation I bought on your recommendation! I am only 35 but have had various aches and pains I have turned to you guys for because I do a lot of carrying and lifting with my 8 year old severely disabled child. You guys have been so helpful! Maybe you could do a video on ways we caregivers can protect our bodies and common issues we face? Just an idea 🙂 Thanks again!

This stuff works for those that have gone off course a bit with their sleep. Real insomnia is far more difficult to cure. I was born with it and can distinctly remember staying awake much of the night at the age of 4 and am now over 60 and it has never improved, in fact I could have invented most of these rules, cause if broken, even sleeping pills wont work. The expression " sleep hygiene" was devised as a catch-all put down for health professionals to use to get patients out of the office as well as pinning the blame on the patients weak personality as they presume it to be.

[@spaceorc1397]

I've had insomnia my entire life too. It's rough

[@treemerryweather]

My watch chimes at 10 which tells me it's bed time; today i got my first computer glasses and now i can SEE all that blue when i look over the rims of the glasses. I use an air purifier next to the bed and it contributes to the white noise. All i need is a new bed...

[@Species710]

Please research any plant if you have pets. I have a "cast iron" aka "milky way" plant. It's tough, as I often don't do well with houseplants, and it's safe for cats. Placed in a north window, which happens to be my bedroom.

Get the book How to Grow Fresh Air. I had a houseplant business & this book was a super guidance. Put more than One Snake plant in your bedroom. A Peace Lily is another easy plant to have. The book breaks down all house plants and what they rid your environment of. Remember everything is off gassing. Mobile homes really need plants!!!

[@khadijahambris2597]

Theses tips does always work 👏🏽🧘🏽‍♀️

[@tnijoo5109]

The studies on plants cleaning toxic fumes/ VOCs out of the air required thousands of plants to show an effect. Hose plants can help with carbon dioxide and mood. Fang shut experts advise against having plants in bedrooms.

I listen to talk show radio at low volume it takes my mind off other things and I fall asleep easily. I'm using my cell phone that gives me a lot of content to chose from I like to listen to on KZbin instead of being forced by the programing of any radio show on station.

#1: Feng shui says the same thing about the decor of the bedroom. It has the same advice about the use of the bedroom: sleep and s*x. And it also says not to have electronic equipment in the room.

[@jb6712]

You do know that the silly and very teenage-ish thing of blocking one letter from the word "sex" does not make it any less of itself, correct? It's not an improper word, nor is it a "sin" to use it in describing what a bedroom is for. Just saying, in case you haven't yet learned that it's all right to be adult enough to use proper words in their correct context.

[@susanmercurio1060]

@@jb6712 : Thanks for your correction. I think that I'm getting more prudish as I get older. Certainly when I was in my 20s, I wouldn't have minded saying "sex" and damn the torpedoes! But I've gone through a series of bullying to cut me down, and it must be affecting me.

I saw the plant and in my family, it's called the 'Mother-in-law's Tongue' plant. I might have to go get one!

Beware of plant toxicity if you have pets or young children. Do your research and/or put the plant where it can’t be reached....especially the Jasmine plant.

I put a flashlight next to my bed so I can find my way to the bathroom in the middle of the night. A tiny flashlight works well. And just get some red tape and put it over your clock: the kind that poor people use to cover the brake light on their car if it gets busted.

I keep the blue light turned off all the time. It's much more restfull. I don't drink caffeine, and still have trouble sleeping. I have to keep the phone on the night stand for emergencies, and alarm... and if I can't go to sleep, after a while (hrs.) I get on the phone and watch something mindless. Then I go to sleep, but it's 4/5 oclock in the morning. My day is turned upside down. Mornings are horrible, no matter how much sleep I get. Still trying to do better.

[@nalomelikukui8134]

Every morning when you get out of bed, say outloud, " Today is going to be a great day."

[@susanmercurio1060]

I have severe insomnia too. It might be genetic. Try reading when you turn off your phone. If you're not into reading, start small. If you are, go ahead. That helps me get to sleep, and I can get away from the blue light.

My husband loves having the ceiling fan on all the time and I don't like it. 😞

[@shannongillespie4564]

I had no idea about that benefit of the snake plant. I just got one a month ago for my bedroom. I guess I'm on the right track! Almost always have a fan on, humidifier and also just got an air purifier a month ago. That was to try and be proactive with allergies. The electronic stuff is tricky for me. I love having the TV on or my phone on. I feel anxious in dead silence. I'm an over thinker. The electronics distract me so my mind can relax. At least that's how I feel. If either turns off I'll wake up. 🤷🏾‍♀️ I have set my phone to 2 night modes. 1st turns blue light off at 8p. At 10p it goes into do not disturb mode and gray scale (no color) until 5a. Unless I dismiss it. It's a new feature on my phone. I've only dismissed it twice since setting it up 3 weeks now. Oh and my Hyperthyroidism gives me chills occasionally so even though the fan is on it rarely is directed on me. Now heat is what I like. Thank you for these tips.

[@susanmercurio1060]

Try white noise instead of the electronics.
