Deep and healthy sleep is an important part of a person's life, necessary to maintain physical health and normal psychological state. The problem with falling asleep often arises from overexertion and overexcitation of the nervous system.
An important component of a healthy sleep is a properly prepared sleeping place. A comfortable bed and fresh linens are essential attributes for a good rest. For some, even the color of the laundry can make a big difference. Warm pastel colors soothe the nervous system. In addition, the bedroom must be ventilated. Fresh air is great for falling asleep. For the same reason, short walks are recommended for 10-15 minutes half an hour before bedtime.
It is important that the body is at rest for at least two hours before bed. At this time, one should not engage in physical activity, eat food, or engage in any vigorous activity. All this can activate the work of the nervous system, which will be difficult to calm down later.
Alternatively, you can take a relaxing warm salt bath. Aromatic oils can be added to the water, which have a soothing effect. An hour before bedtime, you should drink herbal tea, such as mint or chamomile.
Very often, various thoughts, experiences accumulated during the day interfere with falling asleep. You must try to disconnect from them. You can switch to thoughts like "I will soon fall asleep, my thoughts are free, I am falling asleep …". Or you can focus on your breathing and listen to it. You can also dream about the future, if you do not know how to fall asleep quickly, this method can be very effective.
As you can see, there are a lot of methods, ordinary herbal tea will help someone, for someone this will not be enough, and a combination of several methods will be required at once. It may even take a little experimentation to get the best results.
