Title: How do you soothe yourself to sleep
Post by: Dino-Mario on May 11, 2015, 10:54:17 PM
So, do you have or perform something that helps you doze off when nighttime comes and it's resting time? For me, I always sleep with my faithful dino plushies by my side, a TLW T. Rex and a Stegosaurus. When I sleep with them, I never have nightmares and rest peacefully. Sometimes I tend to read a little before going to bed.

I have to have something to listen to or else my mind runs a mile a minute and I can't get to sleep.

Same for me. I hardly ever go to sleep without listening to some (usually calm) music. Sometimes my mind just wouldn't shut up. I must say that I tend to fall asleep easier if I wait until I'm really tired which is usually too late but... at least I do manage to fall asleep rather quick.

I am always thinking of stories when getting to sleep. I think I never get as good ideas as in the semi conscious state shortly before falling asleep or shortly before waking up (phases in which I can to some degree control my dreams with a huge unforeseen and random element to keep it different from thinking of stories during awake times).

I exercise meditation and prayer usually.  Seems to help😉.
