Sleep Tip
If you struggle to fall asleep or you wake up in the middle of the night, try a preslumber snack about an hour before bedtime. Make sure it has a mix of carbs and protein, so a small bowl of cereal, a whole wheat sandwich or a thin slice of plain cream cheese cake will do [I said "or", not "and", lol].
Some people drink alcohol to help them fall asleep, that is not bad, but experts don't recommend it because it can sometimes wake you up later with what they call "rebound arousal." Drinking caffeine free herbal tea or a warm glass of milk would be a lot better.

Tea is a nice thing also, a warm drink helps relax the body. I do this when I have insomnia.
Hey there, Liza! I read Joel's post few days ago but I forgot to drop by. So . . . . . Belated Happy Birthday! ;o)
And happy blogging too ;o)
Kala ko pwede yung "and", that would be nice! I myself try reading, and I have this habit of clipping my nails every night (kahit pudpud na).
Hey, belated Happy Birthday!
hmmm...I like the cheesecake idea, yum!
wow this is nice tip.I prefer milk as I like it so much.thanks for sharing it here.
dropped an ec here too.
I have a terrible time getting to sleep--thanks for the tip, I'll try a snack tonight.
Liz, thank you for stopping by my blog to say hell'o and leave a nice comment about my aprons. Always nice to have friends stop by. I enjoy your blogs as well.
Hi Liza,
I don't want to sound irreverent but reading the Bible before I go to sleep lulls me to sleep. That is why I do my Bible reading in the morning right after I wake up, when I'm wide awake. It's not a tip for those who can't fall asleep at night. Don't quote me on this. He, he, he, *lol*
Thanks for the post. God bless.
I absolutely love herbal tea before I go to bed! It really does help me sleep!
Good tips! Especially now many can't sleep well due to hectic working life..
great tip! but in my case, i still have to wake up at night because my kids would ask for milk...
i drink tea before i sleep though . . .
have a great day!
I think I would benefit going to tea... I have been eating ice cream. LOL It works but probably not the best right before bed!
I have found that when I can't sleep or wakeup way too early. If I rub the bottom of my feet with sesame oil it often helps. Great Blog
