does anyone have any tips for actually falling asleep? I've always had a hard time with that, it takes me an hour of slipping into my thoughts to sleep. |

Just try to let your thoughts flow, don't become too activly involved in them yet don't try and stop them from taking place. If you feel restless it can help to just stay very still, resist turning over. Often times you will find that when you just stay still you begin to get comfortable in your position. Turning over is like scratching an itch, it will just make it itch worse in some cases. If too much light is in the room make sure you keep your eyes shut. |

I wanna be the very best
Like no one ever was
To lucid dream is my real test
To control them is my cause
I feel your pain. |

What I usually do, is simply take a few deep breaths right before I want to fall asleep, just to get comfortable. Then, I close my eyes, and think about nothing. Now, after about 2 minutes, thoughts start appearing spontaneously in my mind, and at one point or another, I subconsciously begin to follow these plot lines. Next thing I know, when I'm following the little black girl to the Garden of Eden, I'm fast asleep. The point is, when you let your subconscious mind take over, you loose focus on reality and your body (along with your mind) shuts down completely, allowing you to go to sleep. |

it might be dangerous to physical health, but ive actually exhausted myself for a couple of days before actually falling asleep, this way, i can snap right into a sleep state, while focused on the dream. but i wouldnt recommend it if you have a demanding schedule, like school or work. |

Ive done this a lot too.. Ive noticed that if I stay up all night, the next night when I go to sleep, or even take a 1-2 hr nap, I will dream... When ever I try to do a WILD, I get pushed right into a LD. ...it is VERY difficult to actually stay awake, but the time it takes to WILD is like a fraction of that of how long it would take a regular one... |

I find that just doing a load of pushups right before bed only tires your muscles. To be tired as in sleepy tired, you need to exhaust everything. That means being more active for longer during the day. Doing say 100 pushups spread out across the day will tire you out much better than 100 crammed in before bed time. |

Eat a heavy meal although thats probably not healthy before bed, but u could learn to meditate, it would help u relax and drift off to sleep. namaste. |

"when you fall unconscious, what your mind expresses is a dream.
When you are aware, what your mind expresses is creativity. It creates your life.
When you are in a higher state of consciousness, it not only creates the life of whatever you want, but also on whom ever you want". -LifeBlissFoundation
Really hot baths, (Not healthy though) will tire you out. But don't use them too much, they strain your heart. |
