same time every day. Don't take frequent or long naps,
especially after 3 PM.
Avoid stimulating substances such as caffeine, nicotine and
alcohol.
Exercise and stay active during the day, but don't exercise close
to bedtime.
Make your bedroom a sanctuary: quiet, dark, cool and comfor-
table.
Don't watch television, do your work, or eat in bed.
If you can't fall asleep quickly, don't force yourself. Get out of
bed and listen to soft music, take a relaxing bath, or read
a book until you're tired.
Try to resolve all outstanding conflicts before bedtime.
Don't try to "catch up" with sleep later on the weekends.
See a doctor if the problem persists to check for health
problems like sleep apnea.
Don't rely on sleeping pills for an extended period of time.
