Tips to get to sleep/ natural sleep remedies?

Try contrast showers!
Have a shower before bed and right before your finished run 30sec cold followed by 30sec hot. Do this for 8 reps.
This increases vasodialation. Just started to learn hydrotherapy in the massage therapy coarse I'm enrolled in.

Tried this for the first time a couple nights ago and when I went to bed, I was out within a few mins.
 
Also try going for a massage. I always find tripperpoints and adhesions (knots) on clients.
A good relaxation or swedish massage really helps decrease muscle tone and increase circulation.
You could probably find a college that runs student clinics for cheap if your on a budget.
My college is $20/h massage for public while the students are getting intership hours towards there diploma.

Worth a shot!
Cheers.
 
Melaton.n...keep taking it, it won't work right away...took me about one week. It works, just be consistant
 
Pick up running as a hobby, it will definetly stress your body and make your body fall into sleep naturally. Whether it be exercise or working around the house, try to run all your gas out for the day. Also look into your diet.
 
Ya, I take 3mg of melatonin and sleep for 2 hours then wake up then am awake for a hour b4 I'm able to fall asleep for maybe another hour or 2. After that no sleep. Been going every night for 2 weeks. :( sucks

There are plenty of options for u. Just need to try and be consistant. 3d's rec above, sex, is a great tool for.sleep. my wife loves it too, except when its not w.her.
 
Not to burst the sleeping bubble, but be careful with melatonin. In basic pharmacology they teach that a lot of it is placebo effect because most people are stressed, and they think they have a sleeping problem based off of their hormones, but in reality it is the stress. Melatonin actually is rendered ineffective if you are taking it daily, and actually can cause damage to natural melatonin hormone production because the body adapts to a new 'sleepy time influence.'

If you have a lot of stress, anxiety, etc, then consider seeing a doctor, because melatonin is very potent and can disrupt sleep even moreso. Actually, if taken in doses larger than 1mg, a portion of it will remain unsynthesized even into the morning, causing you to feel even more tired and groggy throughout the day.

So, go to your doc and get a saliva test to find out if your pineal gland is operating properly. If it isn't, then you actually have a legit sleeping problem. If it is working properly, then try yoga or have sex to relax before bed.
 
I take between 12-18mg of melatonin a night..
Still sleep fkkn terrible and never wanna get up even if my schedule allows a 9 or 10 hour night of sleep
