How to Fall Asleep Easier
By-Tay
All kinds of things can keep you awake. Ask a parent to help figure out what keeps you up and what to do about it. Your doctor may have some helpful tips too. Being active for at least 30 minutes a day (long before bed) can improve your sleep. Having a nightly routine can also help. Keep a constant bedtime and turn off electronics (games, phone, TV, computer) an hour beforehand. Dress before bed, brush your teeth, and wash up. Then listen to quiet, calm music or read something relaxing.
I find a weighted blanket helps. Also a sleepy time guided meditation is helpful. There are lots of them on YouTube.
