You’re tired, you go to bed but you just can’t go to sleep. Many of you who are reading this will know exactly where I’m coming from; it’s one of the singularly most infuriating experiences that we have to go through.

As each minute and hours ticks by with still no sign of sleep, we start to worry about it, which puts sleep even further out of our grasp. Then, the ultimate insult, the dark, night sky begins to lighten. So we are faced with a very long day ahead functioning on auto pilot thanks to another sleepless night.

Is there anything else we can try to stop these long, sleepless nights? We’ve already tried every remedy going, surely there’s something out there that can help us?

I try not to take any kind of drug to get me to sleep, but if you are finding that your sleeplessness is lasting for a few nights in a row and you are dead on your feet, try something like Simply Sleep. This product has good reviews and really seems to help to bring on the sleep that refuses to come naturally.

Try taking a book up to bed to read, this always makes me feel sleepy and before long I can’t focus on the words anymore and my eyelids feel as if they have weights attached to them.

An extra bit of advice concerning this is to read the most unappealing book you can find. A factual or instructional book normally does the trick. But if for some unknown reason I don’t fall asleep through sheer boredom, I might have learn a new fact that could come in handy some time.

The main point of this exercise is distraction. As you are focusing fully on your book, you aren’t thinking about sleep. This takes me nicely to my last method.

Once you’re in bed and snuggled into your sleep position, don’t try to empty your mind. If you do, the fact that you can’t get to sleep will flood your mind and the anxiety circle begins again. Focus on something completely random, thinking of anything except sleep is the one thing that induces it. Imagine yourself somewhere different, or think of pleasant memories, before you know it it’s morning, and this strange but true method has worked brilliantly.
