Ways to Deal with Your Insomnia and Get a Good Night’s Sleep

I participated in an Ambassador program on behalf of Influence Central for Pernix Therapeutics. I received a promotional item to thank me for my participation.

Do you remember awhile back I shared these tips to get a good night’s sleep? I’ve been using these tips, and wanted to share them with you too, so we could all catch up on some much needed rest. Dealing with the symptoms of insomnia stink, so any help I can get – I’ll take!

Some of these tips included signing off social media at least an hour before I head to bed. Using lavender to create a sense of calm, and reading a bit of my favorite books or magazines to help me doze off. These tips have been working wonders for me. Especially stopping the social media that one hour before bed!

 

4 Tips to Get a Restful Night’s Sleep

Since I’ve been getting that extra rest, I’ve noticed my mornings are running smoother and I’m not nearly as tired and run down in the afternoons. I don’t get up as often throughout the night either! Peaceful, peaceful sleep.

I know that these shut-eye strategies don’t work for everyone. Every person is different and sometimes, all of the natural remedies, tips and tricks just aren’t enough to help you manage your problems with getting a good night’s sleep. The really great news is that there are some effective treatment options that you can speak with your doctor about. I’ve never been a fan of sleep medications, but only because of the fear of becoming dependant on them. There’s one treatment, that has NO risk of abuse or physical dependence called SILENOR^®.

It works with the wake-promoting mechanism of the body’s natural sleep-wake cycle. What this means, is that it helps you stay asleep throughout the night and the early morning. Again, with no fear of abuse or dependence!

Just have a chat with your doctor about your symptoms, your routine and lifestyle and see what options are best for you. You can learn more about how to get a good night’s sleep at Wanttosleepmore.com!
