So...what I think is helping me fall back to sleep at night is reading complicated mysteries. And...if they are based in little towns outside of London...I fall asleep even faster! I never realized how complicated it is to actually fall asleep. I swear I am awake and sleepless but Den insists that I have been asleep with the TV on! I guess I can't really doubt him! But I do think that staying in bed when I wake up helps...so hopefully I am sleeping more than I think I am. If I wake up I just grab my Kindle and read my complicated mystery. It works for me now.
Anyway...the books...complicated mysteries...they are all that I want to read right now...whether they are in England or not.
Here are some new favorites!
I just read an article about how to fall asleep and stay asleep...camomile tea loaded with honey is supposed to put you to sleep like a baby! Cherry Juice is supposed to work, too, and just regular milk. I will probably try them all.
Nighty Night!

ReplyDeleteWhat is it about her work?
DeleteI think I probably sleep more than it feels like too, but it's so frustrating. I hate to drink too much before I go to bed because then I have to get up at night.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean....but for some odd reason I sleep the best in the early morning hours...
DeleteI'm glad you are finding books that make you fall asleep....lol.
ReplyDeleteHope you are enjoying them, too. I've been eyeing Home.
They are really good, too!
DeleteLet us know if any of the sleep remedies work. I think the complicated mysteries would work for me as well, ha.
ReplyDeleteI may have found the solution!

ReplyDeleteI'm glad you've found a method that helps, Patty, and that has you reading at the same time. I read about certain drink mixtures but I always have to get up and pee if I drink right before bed so that doesn't work for me unfortunately. I am trying to get into bed about an hour and a half before 8:30 so I can relax my brain with some reading.
ReplyDeleteYour method is one that I am using, too, but I want to try camomile tea plus honey!
