How to sleep well................

Maintain a regular wake time all the time.
Try to go to bed only when you are drowsy.
If you are not drowsy and unable to fall asleep after about 20 minutes, leave your bedroom and engage in a quiet activity elsewhere. Do not sleep outside your bedroom. Return to bed when, and only when, you are sleepy. Repeat this process throughout the night as often as necessary.
Use your bedroom only for sleep, sex, and times of illness.
Avoid napping during the day.
Establish relaxing rituals before sleep. Examples: reading, warm bath, or a light bedtime snack.

Mild regular exercise at least four hours prior to bedtime.
A regular schedule for meals, medications, chores, and other activities help keep your inner clock running smoothly.
Avoid large meals before bedtime.
Avoid caffeine within six hours of bedtime.
Avoid the use of nicotine close to bedtime or during the night.
Sleeping pills should be used sparingly.
When taking sleeping pills, do not drink alcohol.
