2. Read a book 📖 Meander your way through a favorite book to help power down from a hectic day.

5. Meditate 🙏🏻 Clearing your mind allows you to drift off to sleep.

6. Hide the light 💡 Electronics, alarm clocks, street lamps - all of these can prevent deep sleep. Cover up anything that's contributing to light pollution.

7. Take a warm shower 💦 A warm bath or shower can soothe muscles; It's also great if you're suffering from a cold or allergies.

8. Exercise 🏃🏼 Expend your energy for the day with exercise, and you'll be ready to drift off to sleep as soon as you hit the hay.

9. Eat an earlier dinner 🍴 Going to sleep with a full stomach can make lying down uncomfortable. Go with an earlier, lighter dinner.
