How to Get a Good Night's Sleep.

1.Watch what you drink. Drinking caffeine, which is found in coffee, tea, and chocolate, can cause you to lie in bed wide awake. Alcohol, while it makes you sleepy, can keep you from having a continuous, restful sleep. Drinking too much of anything can make you wake up during the night to go to the bathroom.

2.Exercise during the day. Frequent exercise can lead to restful sleep during the night. Be careful not to exercise too close to bedtime, or you could end up with too much energy when you least need it.

3.Do something relaxing to get you ready for a good night's sleep. Take a warm bubble bath or read a book. Meditation, relaxation techniques or prayer can be effective.

4.Watch what you eat. Avoid heavy meals, and have your last meal several hours before your bedtime.

5.Go to bed at the same time every night, and get up at the same time every morning. Having a consistent sleep schedule will help you get to sleep at night.

6.Use your bed only for having sex and sleeping. Don't watch TV, read books or eat in bed.
