Struggling to Sleep? Try These Tips! 💤

Updated: Nov 15, 2024

Here are a few brain-based strategies from our program to help you get the restful nights you deserve:


  1. Create a “Worry Break” 📝 – Set aside 10 minutes during the day to jot down any worries. This helps your mind relax at night, knowing you've already given your concerns attention.


  2. Practice Progressive Muscle Relaxation 💪 – Gently tense and release each muscle group from head to toe before bed. This signals your body that it's time to unwind.


  3. Categorize Your Thoughts 🧠 – When your mind won’t stop racing, try “categorizing/compartmentalizing” each thought (like “work,” “family”) to help distance yourself and calm your mental chatter.


  4. Turn Your Bedroom into a Sleep Sanctuary 🛏️ – Keep your room cool, dark, and quiet. Create an environment that invites rest, free from screens and distractions.
