Treatment of Insomnia

Once you and your doctor have ruled out any medical problems that may be causing your insomnia, you might try self-care methods. “Good sleep hygiene” refers to practices you can follow to help ensure adequate, quality sleep.

Stick to a regular bedtime schedule. Try to get out of bed at the same time each morning, even if it’s a weekend or holiday.

Avoid napping during the day.

Avoid stressful activities and vigorous exercise for two hours before going to bed. Do exercise regularly, but earlier in the day.

Before going to bed, try relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing, yoga, or meditation.

Make sure your bedroom is dark, quiet, and cool. Use earplugs or eye shades if needed.
