First of all, circulation may be an issue that causes the room to remain stuffy. Open a window to let in some air so that the sleeping area is circulated properly. With proper circulation, fumes and odors are removed and there will be less to deal with before sleeping. Dust and pollen are removed from the air as well. Leaving the door or window open for an hour should give the environment enough time to clean up some of the air inside the facility and allow a good night's rest. The pillows and blankets will be properly aired, as well as the rest of the room. Clean pillows and blankets reduce the possibilities of anxiety.
Another way to fall asleep is to wash your hands and brush your teeth before you go to sleep. If you practice proper hygiene, sleep comes and stays every night. Water is a very soothing element. The gentle sound of the waterfall has the same effect on a person as a lullaby in some cases. Another way to fall asleep is to chant and meditate. An hour of meditation decreases aggravation significantly. Recordings of group chants also help to enjoy a deep soothing sleep.
Deep slumber also involves daytime activities. A healthy and active lifestyle goes a long way to contributing towards a more restful and soporific slumber. Excercise in the morning, if possible, and try to circulate as much blood throughout the cardiovascular system, as possible. Breathe deeply, and also maintain vigor. If possible, consistent involvement in team sports and aerobics also go a long way towards sleeping better each and every night.
Maintain a regular sleep schedule. Do not attempt to sleep for a few hours a day. I would recommend at least 8 to 9 hours of sleep per day. Clear your mind before going to sleep and wake up refreshed and clear. Anyone that can get to sleep at least a few days throughout the week can concentrate on emulating their own daily habits throughout those days that they find the most rewarding, in regards to the amount of energy they recover after sleeping. Simply do the same things that allow you to sleep well, and you shall sleep well all throughout your life.
