If you are having difficulty calming your mind and relaxing into sleep, lay down on your bed and get comfortable. Then close your eyes and place a cold damp cloth on your forehead for 20 minutes. You can listen to music while you do this or enjoy imagining a favourite place. When I worked in a sleep disorder clinic this practice was very popular. If you wish, read a couple of pages from an inspirational book. Take a deep breath and sink into your comfortable bed.
