Answers:
First, try to get your sleeping habits set!. Sleep at the same time and get up at the same time every day, no matter what day of the week!. There are a few tips to get to sleep:
1!. Listen to soft music, and let your mind wander!.
2!. Lay on your back, palms facing up, legs shoulder length apart!. Starting from your fingertips, relax everyy single muscle in your body!. Work your way up your arm, your leg muscles, etc!. (Although lying on your back might be difficult for some people for breathing!. Lying on your side is best)
3!. If you find insomnia catching you every nigiht, consult a doctor!.
4!. Don't eat near your bedtime, especially chocolate, or caffeine!. A cup of milk is okay!.
Long answer!.!.!.But I hope I helped!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

INSOMNIA: Exercise, but not within 2 hours of bedtime!. Have a warm bath, or shower, an hour before bedtime, then a glass of very warm milk, possibly with Horlicks, or one of the herbal teas, below, and use dimmer lighting!. Put your mind in a position where it wants to shut itself off, and sleep!. See insomnia treatments, in much more detail than can be included here, in section 3, at ezy build, below!. Use one of the relaxation methods, in bed, after lights out, on pages 2, 11, 2!.c, or 2!.i, but they can take some time to learn, (***progressive muscular relaxation excepted) so learn and become proficient in their use during the day!.

An alternative is to use the EFT, in section 53, and pages 2!.q, and 2!.o, saying to yourself: "Even though I currently have a sleep disorder, I deeply and completely accept myself!." (or choose your own wording) while you use the acupressure tapping!. Some more; quick, and easy to learn, are at http://www!.umm!.edu/sleep/relax_tech!.htm The progressive muscle relaxation, (most easily learned) guided imagery, and mindfulness breathing are known to be effective!.

Find out which works best for you, in the daylight hours, so you will be prepared, come bedtime!. For many people, a good idea is to develop a set "wind down" routine for the last hour before bedtime, so your subconscious mind learns that it is time to put thinking aside, and prepare for mindfulness, (awareness, without cogitation/purposeful thought) or the EFT, in preparation for sleep, but the idea with mindfulness is to not even think about sleeping: just drift off, naturally, during exercising those techniques!.

Avoid TV, computer, or anything exciting in this hour, although reading a BORING! book is a good idea!. I suggest that you try using the EMDR variant, below, prior to the mindfulness, or the progressive muscular relaxation, but after the EFT, if that method is chosen!. Experiment, to find which combination works best for you!.

In section 3: INSOMNIA: PAGE O - INSOMNIA: A COMPREHENSIVE POST a variant of Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing therapy is shown, which has been used successfully for those people suffering from insomnia, depression, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and anxiety!. It is easily learned, quick to use, yet can be very effective; although it is easy to be dismissive of such a seemingly unusual technique, give it a good tryout, for at least a few weeks, to see if it is effective in your case!. I learned it from a book by a published clinical psychologist, and now use it every night, and find it works well!.

Usually, I have a cup of chamomile herbal tea, an hour before bedtime, and employ many of the techniques in section 3!. Others may prefer Sleepytime, by Celestial Seasonings, Relax, Be Sleepy, or valerian root, from supermarket tea, or health food aisles!. Milk, or cream should not be used with herbal tea!. http://www!.ezy-build!.net!.nz/~shaneris RIGHT NOW: Try the PMR above ***Www@Answer-Health@Com

it is important to know how old are you and how long and How often this happens to you!. This is also important that what is going in your mind and body during the time that you are lying in bed and cannot sleep!. I talk about some more common ones!. About 10% of teenagers tends to have "Delayed Circadian Rhythm"!. It means that their brain tells them to go to bed late!.
Some people suffer from anxiety or depression!.
