How to Overcome Insomnia and Fall Asleep Quickly Without Sleeping Pills

God created rest by making us feel sleepy and tired, because our body's capacity is limited. When we feel sleepy and tired, we take a break by sleeping, so that after waking up, our body feels fresh again and we can return to our activities.

However, sometimes, whether it is because of a problem that is always on our mind or because we stay up too late, we find it very difficult to sleep. If we don't sleep, it will actually damage the organs in our body and in the end, it can cause several dangerous diseases.

To avoid this, we have to force ourselves to sleep. There are various ways to do it, but it's best not to depend on sleeping pills. Here are my tips on how to fall asleep quickly and get optimal sleep quality:

1. Turn Off the Bedroom Lights

Turn off the bedroom lights. If there is still a light on, even if it is dim, use a black eye mask to cover your eyes. Darkness will help your brain produce melatonin, the hormone that makes you sleepy.

2. Pray Before Sleeping

Pray before sleeping. This will calm your mind and make you feel more peaceful. When your mind is calm, it will be much easier to fall asleep.

3. Take a Deep Breath

Take a deep breath and exhale slowly through your mouth. Repeat this until you fall asleep. This breathing technique will relax your body and slow down your heart rate.

4. For Muslims, Do Dhikr with Istighfar

For Muslims, do dhikr with Istighfar. Say _Astaghfirullah_ repeatedly with a calm heart. This will not only bring you closer to God but also help your mind to stop thinking about your problems.

5. Massage the Outside of Your Thumbs

Massage the outside of your thumbs, on the upper side. Gently press and massage this area for a few minutes. This point is believed to help relax the nerves and make you feel sleepy faster.

I have practiced the method above, and the result is very optimal sleep quality. I fall asleep faster and wake up feeling fresh in the morning.

Your Mattress Also Affects Your Sleep

Your bed or mattress also greatly affects the quality of your sleep. Even if you do all the tips above, if your mattress is uncomfortable, you will still find it difficult to sleep well.

Here are the steps on how to buy a quality mattress:

1. Choose a mattress that is not too soft and not too hard.

2. Make sure the size fits your body and your bedroom.

3. Choose a material that does not make you feel hot at night.

4. Try lying on it for a few minutes before you buy it.

5. Choose a mattress from a trusted brand with a warranty.

Let's live healthy, so that we always stay healthy.
