I have found that disconnecting from any stimulus(T.V., IPad,Rock), the last two hours before bed helps. I’ll try to read for that last two hours. I’ve also noticed that I should not go to bed until I’m actually nodding off. This seems to help rather than going to bed at a specific time every night. Have I had a few lapses? Sure, but I try not to let it bother me and I start the next nights rest, positive. This is in addition to following Martin’s “Effective Sleep Strategies”, that I copied and placed on my bulletin board by my desk.

Thanks for sharing! Taking time to unwind before going to bed can be so helpful — and the activities we do as bedtime approaches will vary from person to person since what one person might find stimulating and unhelpful, someone else might find relaxing!

Not going to bed until you feel sleepy for sleep can certainly make it easier to fall asleep when you first get into bed — as I like to say, the clock doesn’t know when you’re sleepy!

I appreciate you pointing out that you still have difficult nights from time to time because they are a part of life and part of the human experience! Nobody has a perfect night of sleep every single night — ultimately it’s how we react to any difficult nights that often determines how long they stick around for. The less we react, the faster they tend to disappear!
