Insomnia...?

Thursday, November 1, 2007
My friend ever told me that I'm one of the most happiest people in the world, because I can sleep anytime and anywhere (in the train, metromini, classroom or whatsoever :P).. As an insomniac himself, he found that sleep deprivation makes him drowsy and unable to concentrate.. The importance of sleep per se can be seen here.

Enuff said... Last nite, I cannot sleep..^^ I know I've shouldn't worry about it coz (Thank God) it doesn't occur often... But the thing is, when I cannot sleep, I tend to think about so many things.. Or is it backward..? I think about so many things.., so that I still stay awake..? :P
Then I remembered some stuffs that could be handy to assist me to get my sleeping beauty back... Counting sheep not included (it doesn't work for me.. :P)

  1. Pray and Zikir.. My mom told me that instead of thinking some unimportant stuffs, I should pray to God and do Zikir.. It could be another good deed for the end for the day, right... :)
  2. Milk.. Drinking a glass of warm milk will sooth our nervous system.. Can be substituted by chamomile tea though.., for those of you who avoid dairy products..
  3. Fragrance.. Like an aromatherapy.. It's relaxing.. I usually put my favorite perfume of the day in my pillow.. Last nite, I used oceanus by Body Shop.. Smells good.. -for me-.. Hmmm...
  4. Music.. Listening to the soft music sometimes could lull me to sleep.. I've heard there are special cassettes made for this purpose.. However, lately I listened to Sholawat by Ungu... Visualizing Pasha..-nah- I'm kidding.. ;) I just love the tunes.. Don't forget to set the sleep mode on -saves energy..:P-
  5. Film.. Watching a booring movie -with sleep mode on- could also lull me to bed. However, this method may not be suitable for some people..
  6. Book.. Some might say that reading a book will stimulate our brain; as a result, we may still awake.. However.., I usually read a booring book (such as text book^^) for a start... (this method rarely been used :P)

Well, there are many other ways to help us to get to sleep, these tips, for example. Or maybe you have your own method.. Whatever it is..., hope you all have a pleasant sleep.. :)
