What to do and not to do to sleep well

So many of us know what we should do to get a good night's sleep but either we don't do it, or if we do, and it doesn't work, we give up. But don't give up so quickly. 

Here's a reminder of the do's and the don'ts. Bring them to mind for a good night's sleep.

DO NOT EAT CLOSE TO BEDTIME.

DO MEDITATE OR PUT SOME RELAXING MUSIC ON BEFORE BEDTIME.

DO NOT KEEP LIGHTS OFF WHILE SLEEPING.

DO WIND DOWN TWO HOURS BEFORE BEDTIME--DO NOT DO ANYTHING THAT WILL STIMULATE MIND CHATTER.

DO NOT DRINK COFFEE OR ANYTHING WITH CAFFEINE.

DO CREATE A NIGHTIME RITUAL--HAVING A FEW ACTIVITIES THAT YOU DO ALL THE TIME CAN HAVE A CALMING EFFECT.

DON'T START A DIFFICULT CONVERSATION BEFORE BED, SAVE IT FOR TOMORROW. 

DO TAKE A HOT BATH WITH LAVENDER OIL OR SHOWER BEFORE GETTING INTO BED.

DON'T TALLY UP EVERYTHING THAT WENT WRONG DURING THE DAY.
