What can I do to fall asleep faster?

I think what made me sleep better is when I am more active and busy during the day. When I make myself tired from the day I tend not to stay up late thinking.

There are many ways by which you can fall asleep faster,you can surf it in Google.But you have to remind yourself the main cause why you have difficulty falling asleep or why you want to fall asleep faster. Try to ignore over-thinking and close your eyes and try to sleep :)

Some ways to help you sleep faster are: - Drinking warm drinks (make sure it's decaf!) - Listening to music - Having a nice phone call before bed - Cuddling or stroking a pet - Exercising before bed - Reading - Doing something boring - Close your eyes and count in your head - Write in a journal

Sometimes listening to relaxing music or reading a book may help you to wind down. It really depends on what is relaxing to you. Freeing the mind or at least trying to can also help. By this I mean not allowing the nagging or intrusive thoughts of today to carry over into the next day!

Read! Do sudoku! Crosswords! Color! (my favorite) Getting away from a bright screen, like your cell phone, helps your body realize that it is time for sleep. Lower your lights and take time to relax.

If you read before you go to bed it calms your mind. I tend to be more comfortable when there is complete darkness, but some prefer a night light. Try to not think about all the things you have to do the next day.

You can try writing your thoughts down before going to sleep, it helps in clearing your mind and to some extent it also helps with over thinking. Apart from this some of the common things that can be done is to not drink coffee before going to bed, try not to use your bed fro anything but sleeping, stay away from blue light before going to sleep. You can even try listening to soothing music or anything according to your taste that can help you to relax.

Focus on your breathing and all of the sensations associated with it (sound of breathing, feeling of air passing through nostrils and throat, the rhythm of your breaths).

To fall asleep faster for me as having insomnia I am prescribed medicine to help me sleep. I also sometimes would read a book or listen to music to help me fall asleep a little a faster.

Build a night time routine, exhaust yourself physically by going to the gym, meditate, journal, draw, do anything that takes your mind off of things. Dim your room & limit access to monitors/ devices.
