Are you tired until your head hits the pillow and then suddenly you can't stop thinking about everything you need to do the next day? Or maybe you fall asleep soundly but wake up in the middle of the night when your mind starts racing, making it impossible to fall back asleep? Get quality shuteye tonight by using a technique called ‘brain dumping,’ suggests Stacy Mobley, N.M.D., a naturopathic doctor with a private practice in Phoenix, Arizona.
Your action plan: Place a pen and paper next on your nightstand and once you're in bed, spend a few minutes writing down everything that is running through your head (no matter how silly it is) to sleep more soundly tonight.
