Want to sleep better tonight?

For those pervs, its not a porn commercial. I just thought to share something. As a university student, I had my share of sleepless nights (which was not tooo long ago). But as I matured and learning from adverse effects I suffered because of those late nights, I began to realize that to have a great healthy long life - you do need to sleep. Yup, I still sleep 5 hours of though (bad me!)

 Be here are few things that do work for me when I do get a chance to sleep.

1) Get yourself in a routine: Most of you know that I did miss my 8:30 classes in University (haha, good times). And now I get up bright and early at 5 am for my workout. So, if I can do it, you all can. The basic idea is to get yourself into a routine. Try going to bed early one night - maybe you will toss and turn for the most night and have the worst morning after. However, the following day you’ll be so tired from bad sleep the night before you’ll sleep like a baby. Boom! you did it.

2) Limit food intake before you goto bed: When you lie down to sleep, the stomach acids level out, making heartburn and indigestion more likely to occur. If you are like me, and absolutely need something to eat - have a small portion of cereal, or protein shake. Keep fats low to min at night!

3) Herbal stuff: Some herbal teas can help you relax and make you fall asleep. Chamoline is a herb that basically slows down your nervous system and gives your body/brain time to relax.

4) Power naps - This was great in university. However, don’t nap more than 20 mins - anything longer than that would cuz more damage than help!. By damage I mean you’ll feel more tired..

So, yeah here’s my first post to how to sleep like a baby.
