\"CAN\u2019T<\/p>\n

DIM YOUR LIGHTS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lighting has a direct connection with your sleeping pattern. Bright lights keep the mind\/brain alert and wide awake so you do not feel asleep. When the lights are dimmed, the brain naturally gets a signal to calm down and it is like an indicating to the brain that it\u2019s time to sleep. If you are having a hard time falling asleep, try dimming your room lights.<\/p>\n

WARM MILK<\/strong><\/p>\n

Having a glass of warm milk is an age old remedy to fall asleep. Many people find the warmth soothing and relaxing, helping them unwind both physically and mentally.\u00a0Roughly 30 minutes before bed, start winding down. Turn off electronics, read a book, and heat up a glass of milk to a toasty warm, but still comfortable, temperature. Have the milk and you will be asleep in no time.<\/p>\n

HAVE FISH IN DINNER<\/strong><\/p>\n

Have you ever realised how sleepy you feel after having some tasty fish? I always slept in the noon when I had fish in lunch. \u00a0Fish are rich in tryptophan, a natural sedative, with shrimp, cod, tuna, and halibut having the highest levels.\u00a0\u00a0Most of the seafood especially tuna is high in vitamin B6, which your body needs to make melatonin and serotonin. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that promotes relaxation; melatonin is a hormone that promotes sleep. More: Foods that help you sleep >><\/a><\/p>\n

GHEE<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ghee is a well-known ayurvedic remedy to help you fall asleep peacefully. Add little ghee in warm milk or add some nutmeg powder in ghee and have a spoonful. Massaging the temples and naval with ghee before bedtime helps to balance the Vata by countering it\u2019s dry properties and alleviates Pitta because it\u2019s cool and sweet.

BANANA<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bananas are great sleep booster. They calm your entire body and prepare it to sleep. Take a banana half an hour before your bedtime. Bananas are rich in tryptophan, magnesium and potassium which are the essential sleep producing elements. When there is an increase in the magnesium level, the muscles automatically relax.

NUTMEG<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nutmeg is an age old ayurvedic remedy that helps you sleep better due to its sedative nature. \u00a0Just \u00bc tsp powdered nutmeg is enough. Mix the same in 1 cup of warm water and consume it before bed time.
