5 easy ways to fall asleep faster

From time to time we all happen the night when sleep does not work. What to do in such moments? Use the following effective tips!

1. Breathing exercise

Breathe the air for 4 seconds, hold breath for 7 seconds and then exhale for 8 seconds. This breathing technique allows you to change the heart rate and lower the pressure, and this, in turn, increases the feeling of sleepiness.

2. Getting out of bed

Get up out of bed and try to do something, like solving a crossword puzzle, knitting, drinking tea, or preparing the wardrobe for the next day. Wait until until you feel sleepy.

3. Paper and pencil

If Intrusive thoughts don't leave you alone, put them on a sheet of paper. Write everything that's bothering you – it will help to quiet the excitement. Just do not use a phone or a computer as the gadgets only increase the anxiety, but paper and pencil, on the contrary, calm.

4. A warm bath

Take a warm bath. As soon as you exit the room, your body temperature will fall sharply. And this reduction causes drowsiness by slowing heart rate, digestion and other metabolic processes.

5. Socks

To change your body temperature and fluctuations in the balance between warmth and coolness, you can put socks. They expand the blood vessels and contribute to a more intense blood flow, which ensures an optimal temperature for sleep.published
