- Put on relaxing music — quietly, as everyone else is sleeping, remember? My daughter can only fall asleep with her ear plugs in, listening to music as she tries to fall asleep.
- Read a book. Preferably a boring one.
- Make sure you’ve taken your medications. If I miss my evening dose, I am almost always guaranteed to battle the restless leg syndrome monster, and that guarantees me at least an hour and a half of not being able to sleep.
- There are a plethora of sleeping aids on the drugstore shelf. Some sleeplessness patients recommend one instead of the other. It comes down to what works best for you, if they’re helpful at all. It’s a good idea to run it by your doctor before adding more drug substances to your mixture of medicinal cocktails.
- Essential oils are the rage, and there is actually a mixture for sleeping that my daughter-in-law introduced to me that is rubbed on the feet. Her oil rep made a mixture for her, so you’d have to contact a doTerra rep or someone who knows essential oils to get a formula that works for you.
- Many people are going for other remedies that I cannot recommend, given that I haven’t tried them (and don’t intend to). They swear by their effectiveness (including medical marijuana).
- Melatonin seems to be a very popular natural sleep aid. I have tried it per a doctor’s recommendation, but even a half dose (pill) leaves me groggy the entire next day. (I am extremely sensitive to all medications.)
- A technique I have found that works is: As I lie in bed (and oddly enough, I can only fall asleep in one position), I intentionally make my body relax and then I begin to pray. It works 100 percent of the time.
