Studies have also said that those people become quite susceptible to insomnia/ tossing and turning when the eyes are exposed to back light before going to bed. Reading using PDA gadgets in a room with dim lighting can be a cause.

Also, using the right mattress is essential. If a mattress is too firm or too soft, the back can suffer. Look for a more supportive mattress that can also provide a cushiony level of comfort to the body.

Tried the melatonin, works really well … as a side note … i got my mother who was getting a need for sleeping tablets to take it instead and it worked wonders … quite proud of that actually. Be careful with the tea though … 2 reasons, peeing during the night and black tea is full of caffeine.

One addition to this list… AROMATHERAPY. It has been proven that diffusing several essential oils (or bathing in them before bedtime) can help promote a good night’s sleep.

First on the list would be true Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia.) An alternative would be Lavandin Super (Lavandin hybrid x Super.) Other good choices are Green Mandarine, Roman Chamomile, Sweet Marjoram.

A few drops in a warm bath, a drop or two on a tissue tucked into your pillowcase, or (luxury indeed!) a relaxing massage… any of these methods will contribute to deep relaxation.

Keep several spoons in the refrigerator and when you want to reduce puffy eyes, place one over each eye for a few minutes. Best to do it in nicely quiet and darkened room. You'll be surprised how it will relax you and and reduce the swelling around your eyes. Craig's last blog post..MD SkinCare: Beauty In, Toxins Out

also if you are travelling you should try blackout portable curtains – it helps if you have a steady routine of darkness to sleep even when you sleep in a strange room!

Take a warm bath or shower and try your hardest not to think of sleep – sort of meditate why you dont have to sleep and then wonders most of the time you are not putting pressure I have to sleeep I have to sleep you fall a sleep!

Or if all else fails invest in blackout curtains and try to sleep – you never knwo!

All great tips, but you should also start turning off the lights at least an hour before bedtime. Your body will then start producing its own melatonin and you will find that you will get to sleep much easier.

Especially the computer, I wrote a post about this http://kieferscorner.blogspot.com/2008/09/sleep-and-your-health.html
