Go to bed and wake up at same time every night Sleep for 7-8 hours No alcohol before bed 9. No coffee 6 hours before bedtime If you can’t fall asleep within 30 minutes, get out of bed and read in dim (incandescent) light until drowsy Take hot bath 20 minutes before bedtime Address any nasal congestion (air purifier for allergies, breathe right strips, nasal saline irrigation) Allergy-proof your bedroom (no rugs/carpeting, allergy sheets, and bedding, HEPA filter) Brush your teeth and wash your face Eat a high-fat meal 3-4 hours before bedtime. Consider the Keto or Carnivore diet with lots more saturated fat and proteins Exercise outdoors in the sunlight Get lots of sun exposure for vitamin D and near-infrared light for mitochondrial melatonin and its anti-oxidant properties Check to make sure your vitamin D level is above 60, and supplement as needed, along with K2-MK7 Do meditation/relaxation/stretching/deep breathing exercises to lower your stress levels Make sure you checked off all 20 items on this list so far Lie down in bed Don’t stress about not doing everything on this list, or not being able to fall asleep.
