Relaxation Idea

[Led]

I got this idea while taking a hot shower. A hot bath or even a hot shower feels pretty relaxing to me. so, I think It might help you relax if you take a quick hot shower or bath before heading back to bed. What do you guys think The Imeddiate downside that came to my mind is that runnning the water might wake someone else up.

My first thought was that it would wake me up. Perhaps warm milk?

umm...no...when you wake back up just walk around for a bit with the lights on...do some push ups...a lil exersize...and that go back to bed...i was going in and out of my dream like crazy. try it!

Pytis, I'm unsure how raising your metabolism would be helpful. ---- I use a bath to relax prior to going to sleep (just like right this very instant! The miracles of modern technology - communicating with the world from your bathtub...) - and will oft-times end-up falling asleep and sleeping for several hours in the bath. Although getting up and running a bath will wake me, the counter is that I sleep a lot deeper each time I do. Some scented candles, some complimentary bath oils, and a very quiet jaccuzzi tub. Ahhh! The _only_ thing better is tossing in a 19" LCD wired to a linux box under the vanity and a waterproof usb keyboard.

You spelled Led Zeppelin wrong, Rosco. Work on them pushups Rosco!

If you turn the lights on and do some excersize in the middle of the night, you can go right to bed afterwards and do well with LDing. I know because I tried it instead of immediately dismissing his idea because I'm too full of myself to take advice on an advice forum.
