i get warm and snuggly nothing worse if youre an ice cube in bed,i watch tv for a while then usually doze off not gory horror or fruity tv though

I take Kalms!

A little bag of lavender made by my grandma always does the trick for me, whether it’s because it’s from my grandma or the effects fo the natural lavender, I find it is effective.

Fresh Bedding! It always helps me sleep. and a Nice bubble bath before.

the no screen thing – I actually have no screens in my bed room now i even leave the phone outside of my room (there is a shelf outside next to my bedroom door) I invested in an old school battery operated alarm clock and it has made a massive difference – I am not the best sleeper but with the phone on the room id be checking messages, emails, fb etc everytime i woke up. Now I just go back to sleep so I am getting more sleep and back to sleep quicker too

i think keeping the electronics to a minimum is a wise tip x

I spray lavender on my pillow each night x

Keep your room free of any technology x

I use lavender spray

Try to unwind in bed rather than use devices and watch TV.

Reading before bed helps to relax me

Nice relaxing hot bath

I defintely need to try the routine, I always feel like I have a million and one things to do and stay up far too late doing things that arent that important, I need to plan my day (and nights) much better and not stress out if for whatever reason plans have to change as they do

I don’t really have any tips that you haven’t mentioned. But I will say that the ‘Electronic free zone’ is a very useful tip. It really does make a difference if you avoid bright screens.

routine and no heat in bedroom

i always keep a pen and paper next to the bed to write things down so im not worrying to remember

Drink a caffeine free drink before bed time and listen to some relaxing music.

I keep my worry diary next to my bed and write anything down in there to keep things off my mind. I also have a sleep mask which helps me xx

I suffered from insomnia before I fell pregnant with my little girl, I was always just fobbed off with Zoplicone! I find that writing a to do list for the next day and clearing my mind really helps me. Also the no screen time xx

i like to read as it helps me to sleep at night

I use a lavender bed linen spray and use low lighting (incl my phone) and hour before bed and no caffeine after 7pm.

I use a lavender spray on my pillows before I go to bed each night

i eat a banana b4 bed warm milk bath everything i try everything

I find that putting all my worries onto paper before I go to bed helps me sleep and I can work on the solutions in the morning.

i LOVE Lavendar pillow spray to help sleep well, not 100% sure it really works but happy to try anything!

I use badge sleep time balm to help relax me after a busy day, even my partner loves it! This is the perfect prize

Ditch the devices at least an hour before bedtime

great tips, i’ve none of my own but will be trying to find time to have a bath with Lots of bubbles, lots of lavender and relax

lavender oil on puls points just before bed always helps me relax

hot bath and a read before bed

Read until you literally can’t keep your eyes open any more.

Will try having a caffeine free drink in the evening. I find listening to the radio on a timer helps me fall asleep. This is the only tech I have in my bedroom, mobile phones etc downstairs.

I’d love to try a Lumie, I might give Kalms a go though

A hot shower, clean bed and good book always works for me.

I try to clear my head completely of any busy thoughts! Have a cup of horlicks and a relaxing bath before bed x

A regular sleep routine to stick to.

i wish i had good tips for sleeping but i dont. i struggle with sleep and have done for years. to many babies one after the other so was about 10 years of waking up through the night with babies and its left my normal sleep pattern this way and i hate it

I will take the advice of a warm bath, definitely good for relaxing and I suggest reading in bed – it definitely gets you ready for a snooze.

Keep a pad and pen on your bedside table to get those night time niggles off your mind,

Will try to chill before bedtime, no coffee, no computer, no phone, just pure relaxation

I try to clear my head completely of any busy thoughts! focus on meditation pre sleep – failing that I have some meditation tracks on in the background!

Turn out the light and close your eyes lol put some music on too slow music soon get you nodding off

A nice hot bubble bath, into warm pjs then into bed with a book.

i get to sleep quickly by imagining myself by a frozen pond in a snowy clearing in a forest, it helps clear my mind of all the other mundane stuff i think about

Just a nice mug of Horlicks does me.

I always spray my Lavendar Night Mist and try and read before bed. I usually get to sleep okay but I tend to wake up through the night a lot

Bath, pjs and relax before bedtime

I will be trying Kalms to see if they help me sleep

I have just bought a new bed, hopefully this will help me sleep better

A dark room and comfortable pillows.

Fresh bed linen and reading a book before I go to sleep helps me switch off, it’s getting up that’s the problem on dark mornings been thinking of getting a lumie clock.

i give up putting my kids back to their beds after the 50th time i just crash in their room instad and 9 times out of 10 they are the nights i sleep the best….maybe its the fact im not listening to my partner snooring the whole night away or maybe it because the kids single beds are more comfortable than my bed

Use a lavender spray in the bedroom, its calming and aids sleep

For me I couldn’t sleep without ear plugs. They really are brilliant for cutting out annoying ambient noise / traffic / neighbors / partner snoring etc.

I really don’t know, I’ve tried everything to be honest and still don’t sleep well! I will try every tip on this blog that i haven’t already tried!

I don’t have caffeine after 4pm, I don’t even own a smartphone so don’t use tech before bed, but I still have trouble getting to sleep. I use earplugs to try to block out my husband’s snoring, but I often resort to giving him a shove to try to get him to change position. Conversely, in the morning I have real difficulty waking up, and often don’t hear the alarm.

Do let us all know how you get on with the Lumie after a while trying it, won’t you. I’d be very interested to know.

I like to get all comfy in bed, snuggle down and read for an hour before sleep.

Camomile tea before bed and lavendar oil on my pillow

Camomile tea before bed and lavendar oil on my pillow

I’m really awful when it comes to checking social media before going to sleep so I think I will try and turn off any electronics before I go to bed. I also haven’t tried Kalms so as a last resort I would like to try them. Thank you for the tips!

I’d love to try a Lumie light.

I think to have clean bedding, plenty of air circulating by opening a window and complete darkness, that’s the only way I get to sleep easier, I don’t really get time to have a bath before bed but wish I did

I have to read before I fall asleep that works wells for me and a cool room and no late coffee

a warm bath and milky drinks and tech free evening

I always go to bed 20 minutes before I want to sleep and do not use my phone etc. just lie there and try to be mindful 🙂

Like to keep my bedroom quite cool and very dark!

I don’t drink any tea after about 4 as it keeps me awake and I’m always up for the loo!

Reading seems to encourage my sleepiness! but I’m useless at the no tech routine.. I try to use a ‘sleep playlist’ of mellow songs on an iPod for when my mind is restless too.

have a bath before bed relaxes me

No caffeine before bed and have a nice warm drink

I’m really having trouble sleeping at the moment, so will be trying some of these kalms to help me sleep naturally, I’ve always been put off by the idea of sleeping tablets but these sound really natural.

Do away with tech before bed time, have a bath and a chance to unwind with a book, but not a gripping thriller!”

I have always suffered with sleep problems – mainly not getting enough but I have tried almost everything ie, Relaxing bath, Hot chocolate, No Tv, No phone or laptop in bed but nope I just can’t stay asleep for longer than 3 ish hours and it actually takes me 3 or 4 hours to drop off! I would give anything for a good nights sleep!

I dont sleep very well but for others there is not looking at screen for 2hours before bed and I’ve heard eating a banana just before bed helps you drop off

I put on Enya’s music on a timer, it is so soothing and calming it helps to get me off to sleep

Meditation works wonders for me when I can’t get to sleep. If I’m having a really bad night I’ll also pop a few drops of lavender oil on my pillow too 🙂

The best way for me to prepare for bed is to have a lovely hot bubble bath with a good book, nothing relaxes more removes any stresses from the day

I think spending time winding down is the best thing. I cant just go to bed without first having a sit down and time to relax! Also the tip about setting a bed time and wake up time is a good idea but I work shifts so its really difficult for me. I would give this a try though if it was practical for me.

I would love to try the Lumie bodyclock – it would be a great way to wake up

I put on a lavender scented wax melt.

I have a sleep spray that I spray on my pillow just before I go to bed

I find a really dull book about carpentry helps

I don’t have caffeine after midday, and always have a chamomile tea in the evenings. Really helps. x

READING A BOOK ALWAYS HELPS

I have had sleep problems since I was 11 years old so I’m used to getting very little sleep but eventually it catches up with me. On the nights when I really really need some sleep I take a hot bubble bath before bed, spray lavender sleep spray on my pillow, and dab a little lavender sleep balm on wrists. I close my blackout blinds and take Kalms One a Night.

Might try lavender.

find reading in bed for half an hour or so helps me relax and drop off

get off the computer or phone an hour before sleep. read or listen to audiobooks

Reading a book before bed.

No caffeine x

i spray my pillow with lavender spray and ensure my room isnt too hot or cold

I’m going to try writing things down – and not looking at my phone in bed!

no phone or tv on

Turn off your laptop/phone about half an hour before bed. I like to read then.

Routine, no electrical items at least an hour before bed.

No phone or Ipad before bedtime so can wind down properly

I will be trying the tip to write things down 🙂 hopefully that will really help me!

A nice soak in the bath can help, although having a one year old who has started waking in the night means we are not sleeping through at the moment.

Relax before bed by reading. Turn off the light and listen to some gentle music before drifting off

I keep a notebook and pen by the bed, as jotting things down does seem to clear them from my mind.

fresh bedding

My top tips no TV or Phones, Ipads etc in the bedroom

I limit my caffeine intake, I know that if I have coffee after 2PM I will not be able to go to sleep!
Also drink only caffeine free tea, love Vanilla Redbush tea.

Sleeping in a cool room always helps me! Fresh bedding too 😉

Concentrating on breathing helps me

A Tempur pillow has helped me, as has reading for 20-mins before I switch the light out.

Leave the mobile phone off!

Nothing seems to help me sleep really. Sometimes putting a pillow over my head helps, I think its a warmth/security thing.

Just try not to get stressed , waking up has been one of my menopause problems

i like the idea of writing things down, that could help clear my mind a bit x

no naps in the afternoon. 🙂

A spot of lavender oil on the pillow, or a lavender cushion.

avoid naps, especially in the afternoon.

Don’t have a kip in the afternoon (my downfall). I do have a nice relaxing bath later though

Mine is no tv, tablets etc. in the bedroom! It really does help.

No caffeine before bed and have a relaxing warm bath.

If I am not feeling tired before bedtime I usually take the dog for a walk around the block in the cold weather. You’d think it would wake me up more but it does just the opposite. Maybe I’m a little odd?

Im going to try to go to bed at the same time every night, Im a terrible sleeper as my brain wont shut down

The Lumie looks amazing

keep warm

Warm bath

I’m going to try really REALLY hard to leave my phone downstairs. My excuse at the moment is that I need it as I set my morning alarm on it but I’m going to look at a different way of waking up, as its becoming a really bad habit to just quickly check it before sleeping. I hope this will eventually lead to a better nights sleep.

don’t have your bedroom too hot, is better for the room to be cool and under the duvet you soon warm up.

a hot bath a few hours before bed.

A warm milky drink an hour before bedtime and read a book which will take your mind off the day’s events and the “to do” list!

I read a book. It is surprising how quickly your eyes start to feel heavy and you drop off to sleep.

A comfortable pillow & some gentle rain music sends me off to sleep

Make sure you have the right matress and its not too old!

My top tip is try to go to bed before you’re really tired!

Warm bath, a book and a hot water bottle x

try to feel relaxed and stress free at bed time

Keep the bedroom slightly cooler than the rest of the house to sleep more comfortably.

No Caffeine after 7pm and a good paperback book to read

i have real trouble sleeping but wear an eye mask, ear plugs and have very thick curtains that block out all the light and find this helps!

Getting to sleep before hubby so I don’t hear his snoring

Top Tips, stay warm and don’t have noisy neighbours!

I have a special pillow for my neck that supports it and has improved my sleep quality no end. x

I am terrible at falling asleep as I can never seem to shut off, there is always something to think about. I think I may try your idea of always having a pen and notebook by my bed, see if it helps

I find a nice soak in a bubble bath followed by a hot milky drink relaxes the body and the mind helping me to fall asleep quite quickly.

I usually have a warm milky drink like horlicks another one is a warm bowl of custard works for me sounds odd I know

At the moent I take anti-histamines which are quite good at helping me to get off to sleep. I have known that a smell of lavender is also a good way to help

I always drink a goodnight tea or camomile before bed it helps me relax

Lavender bath/shower stuff, good idea, we don’t have any at the moment. Not sure it makes me feel more sleepy, but I do love it.

A nice relaxing bath and then curl up in bed with a good book to wind down x

I’ve tried all sorts for years, I think the only solution now is to wait for my children to become adults haha

before bed a long bath with candles and some lavender oil. lay off the caffeine in the day

I rub lavender oil on my temples and wrists – I sleep so much better when I do this!

I go tech free for at least an hour before bed and tend to do something that isn’t too stimulating like read a book.

i alays read before going to sleep/ it relaxes me and makes me tired

I swear by Elemis Temple Balm – I just rub a small amount on my temples before going to bed and I sleep so well. If I wake during the night I just rub a little but more in and am soon sleeping like a baby.

I find that running around and tiring myself out works for me, and then I read a bit, and don’t have a problem getting to sleep.

Have a nice hot bath, make sure your bedding is nice and fresh, nice fresh pjs and to make sure the room is dark, also going to bed and waking up at the same time and having a routine helps. I am out like a light!

Relaxation CD or tape helps to relax you . I suffer anxiety disorder so use a deep relaxation one plus some lavender oil on pillow and pulse points

Much as I’m tempted to do the opposite, I avoid alcohol if I can’t risk a sleepless night. Any alcoholic amount, and especially red wine, is guaranteed to wake me up after about 2 hours sleep.

I do tend to have a long soak in the bath before bed. The best thing for me is to not use any of my tech in the bed. Either that or put a movie on, I always fall asleep when watching a movie lol

Play a word game. But can’t sleep if the kids are ill

I use a lavendar pillow mist for both myself & my son & it really seems to help us drop off 🙂

Have a bath and clean sheets and ban the phone from the bedroom it works! Unfortunately, I am on medication so still have good and bad nights x

Close your PC/Laptop/Tablet well before going to bed, and listen to some soothing music.

I have don’t have good sleep habits (illness) but clean fresh sheets and a good book always make me feel good and sometimes sleep really well.

Counting backwards from 1 hundred in 3’s really helps.

I read before bed, it relaxes me xx

Progressive muscle relaxation once in bed

It’s cutting back on the tea drinking and switching off my tablet that I always struggle with.

Definitely to put electronics down and try and relax! Easier said than done!

Warm bath and a book at bedtime

I like a warm bath before bed which I find helps me to sleep

I’m going to be trying take a relaxing bath

I always have a soothing camomile tea before bed and also use a lavender essential oil which i dab on and it helps me to relax .I like the sound of the herbal Kalms.

My top sleep tips are: 1. Wind down before bed by having bath. 2. Don’t drink caffeine before bed. 3. Sprinkle some lavender essential oil on your pillow.

I do a 10 minute mindfulness exercise with a free app called ‘Headspace’, it really settles and relaxes me before turning off my light. I’m really finding mindfulness to be a great help in my life.

Love the idea of a hot chocolate, can just imagine being in bed, all snuggly and warm, sipping a hot chocolate only downside is I would have to get out to brush my teeth which would probably wake me up again..lol

Deep relaxation CD helps it relaxes your muscles also few drops essential lavender oil on pillow

I wil lbe trying out the different tog level Duvets tip – sounds good to me!

I like a few drops of Lavender Essential Oil on my pillow!

I like a few drops pf Lavender Essential Oil on my pillow.

I love ❤️ lavender oil and chammomile tea ☕️

Don’t look at your phone when you’ve gotten into bed. Have some tech free time before getting into bed.

A few drops of Lavender essential oil on my pillow helps me drift off to sleep and I will be trying Kalms night now x

A calming lavender diffuser in the bedroom helps. Also a nice warm bath and a mug of hot chocolate. Feeling tired thinking about it.

Nothing beats fresh air and fresh bedding

I read in bed every night till I’m tired x

I have so much trouble sleeping, I have a bath and use a spray on my pillowcase but it dosent really make much difference. I really need to stop using my tablet at night!

Our bedroom is a designated chill zone, it works

Hot chocolate and count sheep

I omit the caffeine but still have the screens.

I sleep like a baby, but my husband could do with trying some of these 🙂

I do about an hour of competitions, that helps me sleep

Try to avoid TV or computer/Tablet phone for 20 mins before bed, lights out and easy listening music not too loud to drift off too

I nearly always read for about 45 mins before going to bed and avoid being on computer too late too

Normally a nice warm bubble bath works but being 29 weeks pregnant, fat, in pain and fed, i am finding it very difficult to sleep at the moment!!!

I would say put all screens away after 6. I should follow my own advice. No caffeine after 6 either x

I would say put all screens away after 6. I should follow my own advice. No caffeine after 6 either x

I’ll be trying to ban electronics – often I wake up because one of our phones vibrates or flashes!

I don’t think you can beat a hot milky drink before bedtime.Horlicks is my favourite but I also like drinking chocolate and cocoa.

I read before bed, have no phones in the bedroom then if I’m struggling imagine myself on a beach in the Caribbean. I keep lying awake for hours though so it’s not working!

Buy a cute little chug and cuddle up to them they’re so calming, soothing and always there ( I may be biased with chugs 🙂 ) also don’t drink to much caffeine

My top tip is training your pets not to sleep in your bed from the beginning.

My top tip was mentioned in your post, I love a big bubbly bath to relax me! I’ll use lavender scented bubbles and take a decaf cuppa in with me, by the time I’m out, dry & dressed I’m nodding!

I don’t have any top tips other than don’t play with your phone whilst in bed as they stimulate your mind & likely to keep you awake longer,any other tips to help me sleep would be very appreciated

I always make sure my bedroom is at the right temperature not too hot and not too cold, I have a winter duvet and a summer one 🙂
I don’t watch tv in my bed anymore and have found this to be a huge help on getting a good nights sleep also I tend to read a book instead of browsing through my phone 😉

I buy lavender bubble bath and when I’m struggling to get to sleep I will have a nice warm bath and have a cup of hot milk before I go to bed.

I try to ‘clear’ my mind as much as possible. Get clothes and work/school bags ready the night before. Try to avoid using iPad etc an hour before bed (easier said than done).

Iv’e been using lavendar spray on my pillows hich is suposed to help sleep, but being an insomniac I still suffer from hardly any sleep 🙁

I wish I had advice! I sleep terribly. I will try some of these pointers though. Especially taking to to relax before bed and sticking to a routine

I read a bit before I try to go to sleep, if my mind won’t switch off I think of each part of my body ie big toe, 2nd toe, third toe etc works every time

I cant sleep without my TV on and now my kids are the same, i need all the help i can get. If anyone has any suggestions ill be greatfull. People have tryed to help in the past but nothing seems to work.x

I’ll definitely be taking a book to bed, as soon as my 15 week old daughter nods off I’m wide awake & struggle to nod off! Hopefully reading a few pages will gently help me 😉

A hot bath , a good book , fresh bed linen and kicking the other half into the spare room always guarantees me a decent nights sleep ha ha. Fab giveaway. Would love to be your lucky winner. Fingers crossed x

Reading before going to sleep and being tech free at least one hour before going to bed.

Definitely a hot bath, clean freash pjs, clean bedding & lavender pillow spray Zzzz

I always read before bed to relax which helps me sleep.

I find having a bath to relax before bed helps, fab comments will be tryingx

I have a warm bubble bath and avoid any caffeine after 4 ⛤

Having a nice long relaxing bath before bed

Avoid caffeine and alcohol for an hour before bedtime

I think the electronic free zone is really important

I really believe that getting the temperature right in your sleeping area is key to enjoying a good night’s sleep…but ofcourse that differs from person to person so you have to find out your optimum level.

I really enjoy spooky stuff on YouTube and the only time I can enjoy watching it is when the kids are in bed so it doenst scare them. As a result it keeps me awake when I go to bed shortly after.I need to stop this!!!

I drink Pukka nighttime tea, have a bath with bathsalts and lavender oil and put some olbas oil on my pillow.

My husband and I are really bad and cannot sleep without the TV on, we really need to break this habit!

i go to sleep cuddling my son, its easier for us both to sleep that way. Then i wake up earlier than him in the morning.

I try and stick to a routine so that I go to bed at the same time and get up at the same time everyday. Usually this works but sometimes I might get a spell when I don’t sleep so well so might have to try some of your other suggestions

i find lavender tea really helps me to relax before bed when i dont have it i find it harder to get to sleep

Definitely going to try going tech free! I can’t remember the last time I slept properly!

I read to get to sleep, it never fails, always asleep within 10 minutes (it takes me months to finish a book!)

I’ll be attempting an electronic free zone! I have a bad habit of taking my phone to bed with me and scrolling through Facebook, Twitter etc before bed.

I have a habit of writing a do list for the following day before I go to bed. It seems to help to clear my head of any worries.

I swear by banana tea one hour before going to bed. It works a treat!

clean sheets, clean pj’s, write a to do list for the next day about an hour before, and if possible no tech next to the bed xx light a nice smelly candle and read for a bit x

Don’t worry as you lay in bed about things that you cannot change.

Reading before bed – usually about half an hour. Oh and switching off all technology!

Dont go on your phone just before bed x

I keep the bedroom window ajar as I hate it when the room gets too hot and stuffy 🙂

Get into the routine of early to bed early to rise, works for me.

I will definitely be trying out your tip of writing down all the things that come into your head. Really interesting blog with some good ideas thanks xx

Keep your bedroom technology free

I like to read a chapter or two of a book to help me get to sleep at night.

Snuggles always help me sleep, avoid too much phone / tablet use before bed

Hubby in spare bed so i don’t hear the snoring. A nice pillow and warm quilt

Have a routine – it will make your sleep pattern much easier

No phone policy once in bed and reading – always helps to send me to sleep more easily!

i really struggling getting to sleep at the moment and waking up is twice as hard, just to have that motivation in the morning. I may have to start trying to stop using any form of technology before bed.

Used to have no trouble sleeping but wake quite frequently in the night now must try some of your advice

Have a relaxing bath before bed and do not use your phone or tablet in bed as that can make you more awake – the thing I think is most important is to try not to worry about it as that can make you less likely to fall asleep

I’m afraid I don’t have any top tips because I’m such a terrible sleeper. Defininely not a morning person and I really struggle to get up, especially in winter so this would be ace.

Go to bed before you fall asleep in front of the TV

I read myself to sleep. I know electronics are not a good idea at bedtime but I find reading on my Kindle really helps to settle me and make me sleepy x

A nice hot bath with some lavender oil just brfore bed

i try to read a bit before bed and keep my room clean and tidy so its a relaxing space

My tip is to spray lavender spray on your pillow… never fails for me! Thank you!
I need a good tip for actually being able to get up in the morning without feeling like I have had no sleep though… I am so not a morning person! This hamper looks brilliant! 🙂

set a regular bedtime

Well I’m the world’s worst, the tv is on until I go to bed, the computer is on with me working on it till bedtime and as for coffee I have to have at least one anytime up to an hour before bed. I have to get myself tired, I mean brain tired.
When I do go to bed, because of my spinal problems, I have to sleep lying on my belly, in a dark room & in a lovely warm bed. When I turn over while asleep then I wake up, I have to get out of bed and have a walk around before settling down in my sleeping position again. I will have to try the lavender oil on the pillow.

I have to have to radio on all night, I can’t sleep without it on.

A scented candle, cup of cocoa and relaxing music and no kids ,,,perfect recipe for a relaxing sleep

I make sure i have a comfortable duvet and pillows then make sure the room isn’t to warm or cold

leaving off gadgets and turning off the tv would be a great idea for me

A warm, lavender bath before bed seems to help me.

Have a half an hour before bed free from phones and tv, and just relax with a book or listen to some music. It helps me get to sleep!

Get an early night and set a regular bedtime. Works for me.

Putting a little lavender essence on the pillowcase, to help get a good nights sleep

To take time to switch of from things before you atempt to sleep

lavender on the illow and no gadgets before bed

Sleep alone, always get a good nights sleep just not as much as I’d like lol

No phones/laptops just before bed.

I dont use any technology in the bedroom no tv either and the same goes with my youngest, We also use black out blinds and dont eat late at night.

Keep the room nice and dark.

I’m going to try Kalms Night, I already take a natural remedy to help me sleep but it doesn’t always help.

I have had insomnia since I was a child and struggle on and off continuously! If I had any tips that work I would gladly share them! What I find helps is trying to quieten my mind either by reading or listening to meditations on my ipod. Kalms are also very goo x

I like a warm bed but a cool bedroom, and the darker the better.

My main problem is too many things crowding my mind when I should be getting to sleep so I’ve started imagining a board rubber wiping a blackboard to clear everything. Odd, but it works for me.

I read in bed before I go to sleep

I’m going to try and and set more of a routine

I find working from my feet upwards i try and relax every muscle bit by bit, i also do deep breathing and ensure i am comfortable

I find that meditating for 10 minutes at the end of the day, really relaxes me and helps to clear my head, before I settle down to sleep.

I spend some time in bed before wanting to go to sleep – definitely relaxes me. I watch some TV and I often fall asleep watching something.

Leave off the gadgets and electronics before bed!

I am a good sleeper but my husband and daughter are both terrible. I am going to see if I can get them both to do some or all of the things above to see if that helps. I have given my daughter an eye mask and ear plugs as she seems very sensitive to noise around her. That seems to help a bit too.

Have a wind down period before bed with no screens, perhaps read a book or relax in other ways.

I’m a terrible sleeper. I try not to look at my phone 30mins or so before I go to bed and read a book as it helps settle my mind

I have terrible sleep problems and I would use all the tips to try and get a good nights sleep. I cant remember the last time I woke up refreshed!

I always set the sleep timer on my tv and leave it on at a very low volume. I find the slight background noise distracts my over active mind when i’m trying to drift off.

I really enjoy ASMR videos which use binaural triggers to relax you, often simulating things such as haircuts, massages and facials 🙂

mum has sworn by kalms for 10+ years

To use a proper alarm clock and not your phone. No phone or tv in the bedroom.

I try to stay off my phone and ipad for at least an hour before going to bed but it is difficult xx

I always have the window open in all weathers, can not sleep in a stuffy room.

I find making sure I do enough in the day to wear myself off at night then I sleep better, but do not eat or exercise at least 2-4 hours before bed and it needs to be fairly dark for me to sleep properly.

i always have a hot wilk drink 30 mins before bed and then play gentle soft music to get me off to sleep

Get a husband who doesn’t snore and if thats not an option wear earplugs. I’ll be making it an electronic free zone.

Try to get into a regular pattern of going to bed at the same time and getting up at the same time whether I’m tired or not.

For me if I go to bed too early then I don’t sleep well. So even if the clock says it is bedtime if I don’t feel tired then I stay up a bit longer and sleep better.

Oh I’m terrible for doing all the wrong things! I drink waaaayyy too much coffee, and I’m never off my phone at night and have the TV on in the background! I hate the feeling though when I wake up every morning feeling even more exhausted! Totally need to change my bedtime routine! Xoxo

I have a “chillout” calming playlist on Spotify, which tends to help me nod off if I’m having trouble sleeping. Its very relaxing! 🙂

I will definitely be trying the Kalms one a night tablets, A tip from me is lavender bed spray I always spray a squirt on my pillow every night so soothing!

i always try not to have my phone to hand as that really distracts me from sleep also get some proper lavender oil add a few drops to a hanky or tissue and place it on your pillow it really works xx

No screens or gadgets 2 hours before bed and no caffeine after lunch. 🙂

I am an extreme insomniac and am lucky to get 1-2 hours a night. I have tried everything but nothing works for me. My tips are blackout curtains, no screen time after four pm, control caffeine intake and try to accept your insomnia and not panic about how you might feel the next day. I like the warm bubbly lavender idea the best.

I sleep best with the window open! I love the room full of fresh air. Sadly it was closed last night and I have woken with a chronic headache today! arghhhh!

I always dab lavender oil on my pillows

Maintain a reasonable room temperature and reduce caffeine intake.

sounds of the ocean playing gently in the background

Keep the bedroom dark, cool and free from gadgets

try and clear your mind and stop thinking about stuff thats happen in the day

I’m a terrible sleeper. I do find Kalms help sometimes. I wake far too early or far too late and would love to try a Lumie to see if it would help.

Keep your bedroom technology dree!

My sleep tips are to try to go to sleep and get up at the same time everyday, get as much natural sunlight as possible, move vigorously during the day – don’t sit for more than an hour, limit caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, and big meals at night, take time for relaxing activities before sleep and create a calm and restful sleep environment,

Never look at technology in the half hour before you go to bed. That’s my tip!

I am a terrible sleeper…it takes me soooo long to fall asleep. My only advice is to keep really active during the day and get a good bedroom/pillow spray

I invested in a good quality mattress – great decision as it has made a huge difference.

Not to do anything to energetic, a few hours before going to bed, otherwise you will not be relaxed enough.

I am VERY guilty of using my electronics at bedtime … and like you I spend a lot of time in my bedroom due to my conditions …. I need to start switching off a little earlier and calming myself down … I also love a coffee …I do find if I drink one anytime after 3pm .. I find it even harder to sleep … so finding something more soothing would be much more preferable at bedtime … kalms I cant take unfortunately as they react with my prescription meds .. but I know how good they are as hubby has used them. So all in all I have realised a lot of what you suggest applies to me … so onward with a new routine at bedtime for me … time to switch off my laptop being as its 11.20 pm lol xxx

I really need to stop watching YouTube videos on my phone in bed as I know it is ruining my sleep…
I do like a hot chocolate before bed 🙂 x

Went on a CBT and mindfulness course and learnt lots tech is a no no as is caffeine
Biggest for me is learning to let go of the day !

I already do the bath bit but going tech free is so difficult! I should definitely try to limit the caffeine though.
