What should boys do if they can't sleep at night?

For younger men, their sleeping conditions should be very good. Generally, they can achieve deep sleep as soon as they touch the pillow. It is just because their body mechanism is in a vigorous growth, so at night, they can enter a resting state more quickly. However, boys occasionally suffer from insomnia. So what should boys do if they can't sleep at night?

Reasons why men can't sleep

Men rarely suffer from insomnia when they are young. However, as men age, especially after the age of 30, their physical abilities begin to decline. Water and waste products tend to accumulate in the body, so the body becomes cold, making it difficult to fall asleep and waking up from sleep.

A survey shows that most people who often have trouble sleeping have the following 9 bad habits.

1. Watching computers, mobile phones or TV before going to bed, receiving strong light stimulation;

2. Going to places with strong lighting late at night;

3. Stay at home most of the time during the day;

4. Basically avoid sun exposure during the day;

5. Frequently anxious and worried;

6. Irregular life and work;

7. Rarely move the body;

8. When taking a shower, just take a quick shower and that’s it;

9. Feet get cold easily.

You may want to check whether you have the above bad habits. In fact, bathing before going to bed is very effective. The body temperature will drop during sleep, so raising the temperature before taking a bath can help you fall asleep smoothly.

In cold weather, if you want to keep your head warm, you can use a hot water bottle to warm your feet. Electric blankets can also warm your body, but over-reliance on them will lower your body temperature, so they should only be used in very cold weather.

In addition, it is also important to get enough sun in the morning and during the day to let the body's rhythm follow nature. The so-called body rhythm refers to the phenomenon that the body and brain are awake in the morning, active during the day, and rest at night. Therefore, the importance of developing a regular living habit is self-evident.

Effective ways to treat insomnia

I believe many people have experienced lying down in bed and tossing and turning for hours without being able to fall asleep. In more serious cases, they may suffer from insomnia all night. This is very depressing, and it is not only bad for our health, but also affects our mood.

I was also particularly troubled by this. After my own attempts and continuous search for ways to help me fall asleep, I have summarized a few sleeping methods that I think are better and would like to share them with you, hoping to help you fall asleep as quickly as possible.

1. Self-association method

Imagine a beautiful scene before going to bed. Don't let your mind wander when you lie down. Close your eyes and imagine a vast universe in your mind (or you can choose something you like). There is nothing in this universe, only countless shining stars. You feel that these stars are so beautiful when you look at them. Just look at them slowly.

Then you fell asleep without realizing it.

2. Food to help you sleep

Hot milk, lily, millet, etc. You can drink a cup of hot milk before going to bed. Don't drink coffee, green tea, etc., which can excite the brain.
