Masturbation always clears me out...hehe

Hold my head under water for at least 20 minutes. Epsom salts help.

Hot bubble bath, a couple glasses of wine, guided meditation, Cannabis, Ambien.

Side note: My son says just close your eyes and pretend you are sleeping and you'll just fall asleep. If only!!!

Pot

Shower. Masturbation. Joint. Beers. Whiskey.

Sometimes I mix up the order.

Weed helps. 🙂 maybe some grateful dead

I take a nap!

2

Turn of all electronic devices 30 minutes before going to bed. Electronics stimulate you and interfere with sleep.

Meditation. Yoga. Deep breathing. Exercise during the day. Read before bedtime.

Hiking is a transcendent, uplifting experience for me. It engages all of my senses. Most importantly, it calms my busy mind. I feel most centered and grounded in the mountains.

Relax my brain?

*Nervous chuckle

Or think about things like this: Jews slaughter and eat the Passover Lamb, why don't Christians do the same with the Easter Bunny?? Well, it would make Easter a lot more interesting....

2

ambien...otherwise i'll be thinking of a song and singing and singing it in my head for hours and hours and hours....i have excellent hearing so when i finally get to sleep - if i hear a noise i'll wake up and not be able to go back to sleep.

tibetan humming bowl tone while watching computer fractals.

That sounds really nice.?

@Emme That sounds like torture! Why not some throat-singing or, wait, I've got it - bagpipes!!!

@LIB75002 I like those too❣??

Mindfulness meditation

After many years of panic attacks, I have learned to always be relaxed with the odd diazepam too.

I take a nap

Meditation and short naps.

Sleep.

beach and coffee, either order, always read in bed, then I sleep.

The only thing that really works for me is football (I am not kidding) Is it September yet?..... Seriously, in my line of work, problems go with me when I go home, they pester me in my sleep (not all the time, of course), so when its football season and I am watching the game, for those four hours (give or take), my brain is completely disconnected from everything. Case in point, you have to find what is your "football" so your brain can take a break from time to time. Hope this helps.

Maybe I'm a bit 'off,' but my body has to inform my brain when I'm tired. I can't seem to shut my brain down most of the time, often laying awake in bed for more than an hour 'thinking things through.' They say you shouldn't exercise in the evening, but I find that a good workout between the hours of 8 to 11 will enable me to get the five or six hours of sleep I require. I don't do yoga, but I hear that's a good discipline to quiet the brain ... either that or a couple of martinis! 😉
