How can you help someone get to sleep? Naturally.?

Thursday, October 29th, 2009 by

Basically if someone’s having trouble sleeping and they don’t want to take any sleepng pills or anything like that what is a good idea to help someone get to sleep?

Warm milk, a warm bath, then a massage. If they don’t fall asleep, they will still get rest, so it’s ok.

    Well, you could knock them over the head with a hammer! Seriously, they may want to try taking Melatonin. Melatonin is what is produced naturally by the body to regulate out sleep/wake cycle. It’s not a sleeping pill. The person who can’t sleep should try this.

    Try Melatonin. It’s not a drug. It’s a hormone that occurs naturally in the brain. You can buy it over the counter in most any drug store. Try a half tablet at first. If that doesn’t help, take a whole one. Avoid caffeine, which includes most soft drinks.

    do you have trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep. do you even sleep at ngiht at all? i always had trouble getting to sleep and i did use the aid of pil every now and then, but i find that the best way to get sleep is to set up a very strict sleeping plan for yourself. do not watch tv or reading or do anything in your bed other than sleep. if confusing your brain and then it strats to associate your bed as a place of work and not a place of rest. try to go to bed at the same time every night and wake up at the same time every morning. this will help set your internal clock and your body will feel more rested from a routine.
    camomile tea is good to drink before bed too because it helps relax and put you to see naturally, if you can find a camomile bubble bath that’s even better, it will put you out pretty fast after a nice bath.
    eat a lite snack, nothing heavy, before bed and if you eat dairy you can try a warm glass of milk which is suppose to really work (i don’t eat dairy so i’ve never tried it)
    honestly, if none of this works you night have to see a doctor about it. you could try the herbal section at your local heath food store for anything else as a last resprt before sleeping pills.
    hope this helps

    Falling asleep naturally only occurs when the body is relaxed as well as the mind. Here are some natural "remedies":

    Create a very relaxing evening starting from right after dinner. Light candles (bright lights keep people awake so candlelight is more relaxing), play soft music and give a massage, back, leg, foot, whatever. Helping the muscles relax is an easy way to help someone get to sleep at any age.

    Prepare a WARM (NOT HOT) bath with bubbles and candles and soft music. Lying in a hot bath actually speeds up your heart rate and will make you feel more awake. The trick to using the bath to feel sleepy is to make it warm and comfortable so you can sink in immediately without feeling hot or cold, even if you like hot baths, they will not help you fall asleep. The candles and music, once again are to help your brain relax.

    Tell a story, something non-exciting, to get the person’s mind off the workday and into a "dreamy" sort of state. Describe beaches or other places where people just lay around relaxing.

    Warm milk may just be a psychological trigger that we associate with relaxing, but it can still work. Tea and other warm beverages (including hot chocolate) contain caffeine and this obviously is not what you want before bed.

    Make sure the person doesn’t go to bed until they are sleepy enough to fall asleep. When people go to bed before they are tired and "toss and turn" for hours trying to fall asleep, they can create an association with the bed and NOT sleeping which can actually trigger insomnia. Staying in one room that has a relaxing atmosphere until you feel sleepy is much better then going to bed when you are not tired.

    Basically removing any stress and helping the person stop worrying or thinking about external factors a few hours before bedtime as well as helping their bodies to physically relax is the best way to help them sleep.

    If you like music buy a cd of relaxing sounds(walmart) don’t go to sleep right after dinner unless it’s a very light dinner,if you shower right before you go to sleep use lavender scented shampoo or put a drop of lavender oil behind your ears,the scents of lavender relaxes you ,hope this helps.

    Good question for a big problem..

    Many people have trouble falling asleep and may not realize that they may be intolerant to caffeine and caffeine based products. You also may be consuming a lot of sugar which creates a mild high keeping you overactive and preventing sleep.

    You would be very surprised that many processed foods contain high sugar (fructose) and caffeine, its not just colas and coffee.

    Try the following:
    1) limit your sugar and caffeine intake after 2:00 pm.
    2) keep your room nice and cool at bedtime
    3) try counting things (sheep, cities or places)
    4) warm milk with NON SUGARED cereal
    5) warm "sleepy time" tea
    6) also clean fresh sheets can help also

    Some of the other responders had some great ideas too. You may want to go to http://www.webmd.com and type in insomnia. (you will also get some great answers)

    I also encounter sleep problems from time to time and with me it’s just a matter watching and changing my dietary habits and naturaly, breaking the cycle.

    It only took a few days.

    Good luck, hope this helps, happy sleeping …

    Insomnia (sleeplessness) is due to stress,
    dietary and medical problems. By making
    small lifestyle changes like having a fixed
    daily routine, relaxing and eating properly,
    insomnia can be cured. I found the information

    No, you don't have to do that. Your logo can be whatever you like it to be — Google's proper company name, for instance, has a corporate ending on it that does not appear in their logo.

    If someone else registers a DBA and tries to sue you, they will be unsuccessful for two reasons: 1) your filing date will be older than the DBA's filing date, proving that you had the name first, and 2) an LLC is registered with the state, while a DBA might not always be. LLCs kind of trump DBAs in situations like this.

    Hope this helps!

    well… Quake 1 originally only had IPX support, which wouldn't quite qualify as “online”. Quakeworld =/= Quake 1 from a technical standpoint. (As in, if you have a Q1 cd and just install that and don't go get ez-quake or netq or something, then yeah, you're not going to play “online”. Annnddd… Quake 2 is faster for forward movement, since it has actual strafe-jumping instead of the QW bunny hopping. See qdq for both 1 and 2 for an example. The gameplay (rockets esp) are way slow tho.

    Examples: Mass Effect 2, Fallout 3, Lost Planet 2 (though not too much), and Dawn of War 2. All of those games manage to be different from their predecessors. Mass Effect 2 has more emphasis on the action, Fallout 3 completely overhauled the series (for the worst), Lost Planet 2 adopted a L4D style of gameplay and dropped a features from the first, and Dawn of War 2 shifted the series from gradual base/army building to direct command on the battlefield.

    A dog that loses is immediately killed, usually by a bullet to the head. A dog that wins is kept alive to fight again. I honestly have never heard of an "electrocution bath" before. Maybe they do have them set up, I don't know. Perhaps you could explain more about it for those of us who don't know much about dog fighting. I only know the general stuff, nothing in depth.
