Scientific Steps To Fall Back To Sleep If You’ve Awakened In The Middle Of The Night
Do you ever wake up a couple of hours before your alarm goes off, and then have trouble getting back to sleep? Here are some ideas that can help you get back to your snoozing!
1. Keep your cell phone away. You don’t want to see the light that comes from the phone.
2. Don’t look at the clock. It makes you set new deadlines. Just go back to sleep and allow your alarm to do its job.
3. Just get up. If you have awakened, your body may just need to get out of bed and do something to help wind down again.
4. Relaxation techniques. Try doing some deep breathing.
5. Just lean on what you know relaxes you. This is a personal thing. For some, it could be the beach and the waves, for some it could be thinking of family. Whatever it is can get your mind off of whatever might keep you awake and allows you to return to sleeping.
