Sleeping Difficulties

How do I get a good night’s sleep ?

Many women suffer from insomnia due to the physical changes and the accompanying excitement. What you could do is get plenty of exercise, but not just before you sleep. Develop a bed time routine of activities that help you to relax. Like reading, soothing music and a warm bath. Have a light snack of whole grain biscuits and milk or fruit and cheese just before retiring. 

Your bedroom should be comfortable, airy and inviting. Stand as little as possible during the day, because it increases night-time urination, and don’t drink too much water after 4 p.m. Also avoid tea, coffee & colas after midday as these are known to interfere with sleep. As far as possible, do not nap for long during the day. 

Most importantly relax & clear your mind of all tensions and worries. This is your time to be indulged.
