When you know how much you should be sleeping, it can help you to figure out if your sleep routine works. Babies normally sleep for most of the day. They need about sixteen hours. Teenagers require about nine hours a day and adults require seven to eight hours a day.
Once you’ve completed these five easy steps below, you should be able to fall asleep in the next one hundred and twenty seconds:
Lie face up in bed and relax your facial muscles including your tongue, jaw and the muscles around your eyes. If you realize you have a frown, focus on releasing the area in the center of your forehead. Your forehead should be absolutely smooth. It might sound strange, but really relax your eye sockets by letting them go limp.
Drop your shoulders as low as possible. This will also help you stretch and release the tension in your neck. Relax your upper and lower arm on one side, and then try it with the other arm. If you’re having trouble relaxing your arms, try turning them a little.
Breathe out and relax your chest.
Relax your legs. Release the tension from your thighs first, and then let the relaxation travel down to your calves, then focus on your feet and ankles.
Now that the muscles in your body are relaxed, it’s time to clear your mind completely. Envision the following images to help clear your thoughts and block out any distraction image:
a) Imagine yourself lying in a canoe, on a calm lake with nothing but a clear blue sky above you.
b) Remove distractions like computers, TVs and cell phones and head to bed when you feel the first sign of tiredness.
