Try writing down all your thoughts right before bed. Empty your head. No phones an hour before. Turn on a sound machine. See how it goes! Good luck and sweet dreams 😓

For those who never feel fully rested in the morning: Apparently, there’s a lot of ways to breathe wrong and you’re doing them all while you sleep. Sometimes it’s because of you and other times it’s because of your environment or maybe it’s both but if you’re not getting enough air you will get low quality sleepā˜¹ļø. If you wake up feeling congested, a couple of things that really help me are a humidifier (love this one for travel also) and an air purifier (super quiet). For those who have a hard time falling asleep: - It feels like you either love melatonin or you hate it, I happen to love it. Finding your dosage is key tho and that might take some experimenting. I started too big and slept like a rock but felt super groggy waking up!! - this is annoying but going to bed at the same time every night is so helpful. I’m sorry!! I want to be too cool for school also but having a strict bedtime will change your life for the better For brains that won’t shut off: Ok here is my trick to falling asleep when my brain is too loud (patent pending): Step one: play a podcast or anything where people are speaking but set the volume low enough that you can’t quite hear what they’re saying Step two: make overthinking work in your favor by focusing on your train of thought and tuning out the podcast noise. I think this works because tuning out external sounds is something that happens naturally as you fall asleep. Ok hope that helps, sweet dreams! šŸ’‹

I had this same problem a few months ago. It was so bad I only had 1-2 hours of sleep for weeks. I had to completely reassess my ā€œsleeping hygieneā€. Below are things I tried and some you’ve probably heard before. Avoid being on your phone like 1-2 hours before bed. Something with the blue light or stimulation keeps you awake. Avoid caffeine before bed (would say like 4 hours before). Don’t eat a huge meal before bed. Create a relaxing bedroom environment. Make sure your pillow and bed is comfy. Turn off all the lights. Sleep with a humidifier and nose strip, helps with avoiding mouth breathing and gives me a good DEEP sleep. Wear a sleep mask, the total darkness helped lull me to sleep immediately. Comfortable sleeping clothes (if applicable) I usually wear cotton clothes to sleep or satin. A weighted blanket can also help. Magnesium drink/tea instead of melatonin can relax your muscles and put you to sleep.

"Hell Yes," Beck. It's that bass line and jaunty harmonica. He's got that drowsy voice and it's fun to hear him hit the hip hop with it.
