Recommendation for more energy and more restful sleep

[Guest guest]

I have a problem getting to sleep at night and when i do get to sleep

I have a problem waking up and when I am awake I do not have any

energy . Any recommendations. I have tried going to sleep at earlier

hours but still not able to fall asleep for hours even tried to get up

earlier still no luck .

take 3mg of melatonin and drink a cup of decaf tea before going to bed. also,

don't just lay there til you fall asleep, read a book- nothing too thrilling,

poetry or short stories work well because they don't require long attention

spans to finish so you won't be glued to the book for hrs because you want to

finish it. my favorite to read for this time is the book of Psalms or Proverbs

in the Holy Bible.

 

much love in Christ,

what works for me is a gradual cold shower (the sudden cold shower is

too stressful) in the morning, as it seems to increase wakefulness and

energy, and a head-out hot shower or a hot bath 30 min before going to

bed. The hot shower or bath should make you sweat and must induce

fatigue, only in this case it seems to help to fall asleep. Basically

the idea is to use gradual cold showers as a stimulant/antidepressant

and hot showers as a sedative/hypnotic. Below are the references. Good

luck

If you take 500 mg of GABA and Tryptophan with the 1-3mg Melatonin one

hour before bed it usually does the trick

hi, once a time i was also insomniac and tried alternative therapies.

They recommend me for regular practice of 'Yoga'. 'Yoga' is basically

derived from Indian culture. Still today I am practicing this

regularly and getting the unbelievable result from it. Its not only

that I am no more insomniac now but also my concentration power and

tolerance power has increased. A few days ago I found

http://www.rvita.com. Here I found lots of information about

alternative therapies for many chronic diseases. Hope this will help.
