Tips to help you sleep
- Don't chase sleep. Don't go to bed early or sleep late. Don't nap.
- Don't go to be until you're sleepy. Sleepiness is when your eyes are drooping.
- Don't stay in bed unless you're asleep.
- Establish consistent daily routines and bedtime routines.
- Recognise when you sleep best, then stick with it.
- Don't tell yourself you won't be able to sleep. Instead, say that a bad night of sleep is okay.
- Keep a journal. Write down all the things you don't want to forget.
- If you start to ruminate in bed, think about the things you're grateful for.
- Listen to someone else's voice, like an unexciting audiobook.
