Insomnia
I'm looking for advice for insomnia. What has worked for you?
I'm going down on my medication that helps me to sleep, and am wanting to be able to get a hold of my insomnia.
Thanks heaps! Xo

@PlantLover Hey PlantLover I find a hot chocolate or two helps, hot/warm showers, eating something comforting before I go to bed, herbal supplements have helped me in the past. Not exercising lol.

Re: Insomnia
Thanks for the reply @Bunniekins !
Do you struggle to stay asleep too? Or It's more just falling asleep?

Re: Insomnia
@PlantLover Hey PlantLover now that I am drugged up to the eyeballs at least I can go to sleep.... it is the staying asleep that I find hard but after I get up and have a hot chocolate and something to eat PLUS a hot water bottle (forgot to mention that) I go back to sleep for a couple of hours which is great. I hope my tips have helped a bit. pea:)x

Re: Insomnia
Thanks so much! I'll try having a cup of tea/shower before bed. I also will try mindfulness/breathing exercises. Maybe some essential oils on my pillow.
I've also stopped using technology/eating in the bedroom. And trying to go to sleep at the same time every night.
