Get off the couch. Regular exercise promotes healthy sleep—and weight loss, stress reduction, blood sugar management, and the list goes on. But allow at least 4 hours between exercise and going to bed as it will rev up your metabolism, making falling asleep harder.
• Step away from the computer, and the TV. It’s not easy to turn off the tech, but you need to be calm to get a good night’s sleep. Late-night TV watching and surfing the web will stimulate you.
• Pick a bed time (and a wake up time) and stick to it. Going to sleep at different times every night—10:00 p.m. one night and 1:00 a.m. the next—disrupts optimal sleep. Try to go to sleep at around the same time every night, even on the weekends. And wake up around the same time every day (with not more than an hour’s difference on the weekends).
• Have a nap, but not after 3 p.m. Evening naps will make it harder for you to get to sleep at night.
• Beware of big meals late at night. If you’re having a big meal, be sure to eat it at least 3 hours before going to bed. Indigestion or heartburn could keep you awake.
• Keep your cool. Too hot, or too noisy, not dark enough, an uncomfortable bed, or not the right covers or pillow—all these can prevent a good night’s sleep. Solve these problems if you have them.
• Skip alcohol or caffeine, or have them at least 3 hours before bedtime. Caffeine will stimulate you, and while alcohol can help you fall asleep, it may cause you to wake up later and stop you from getting back to sleep or having a good night’s sleep.
• Relax, and let go of stress. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends beginning rituals that help you relax each night before bed such as a warm bath, light snack, or a few minutes of reading. And try to get rid of or deal with things that make you worry. In a recent Consumer Reports National Research Center survey, stress was a top cause of sleeplessness.

Someone close to me sent me this email, and I can certainly say in this current time of life whether or not you are a religious person it tells a really powerful and useful story that we can all learn from. Enjoy.
One day a young lady was driving along with her father. They came upon a storm. The young lady asked her father what should she do, he said “keep driving”.
Cars began to pull over to the side, the storm was getting worse. ”What should I do”, the young lady asked, “keep driving” her father replied. Up a few feet she noticed eighteen wheelers were pulling over also. She told her dad, “I must pull over, I can barely see ahead. It is terrible out here, everyone is pulling over.” Her father told her not to give up, just keep driving.
Now the storm was terrible, but she never stopped driving and soon she could see a little clearer. After a couple of miles, she was on dry land and the sun was out. Her father said, “now pull over and get out.” She said “but why now?” He said “get out, look back at all the people who gave up and are still in the storm. You never gave up and now your storm is over.”
I thought this was a testimony for anyone of you that are going through something. Just because everyone else, even the ones who appear to be the largest and strongest give up. You don’t have to, because if you keep on going, up ahead your storm will soon be over and the sun will shine upon your face again.
Never give up, because GOD will never give up on them. He has the last say.
You are blessed beyond anything you can ask or imagine. Just put your trust and hope in God.
