Sleep Peacefully, and Have Good Dreams at the Same Time

Do you struggle with dreams, or sleep? Here is how to sleep peacefully, with good dreams.

Steps

 * 1)  Eat dinner at least 3 hours before bed. If you eat food right before bed, you will be full of energy and won't be able to sleep properly.
 * 2)  If you feel hungry before bed, have a banana or a slice of wholemeal toast with a thin spread of low fat spread.
 * 3)  Have a lovely bath. Tip a little perfume or lavender oil, and some bubble bath into the warm, but not hot water, to relax yourself.
 * 4)  Don't do homework or heavy exercise right before bed. Your head will be swimming with energy after these and will not want to sleep.
 * 5)  Have a hot chocolate or hot milk before bed to relax you and soothe you from all bad thoughts.
 * 6)  Make sure the room is not to hot or cold. These will keep you awake. Or, if you cannot change the temperature, make sure you have lots of different sheets and blankets and a duvet on your bed so you can fling on or off a layer if you need to.
 * 7)  If you are worrying about something, imagine this. You are taking the worry, screwing it up, putting it in a box, locking the box and wrapping chains around the box. Then put it in a cupboard, lock the cupboard, and throw the cupboard into a skip.
 * 8)  When in bed, think about clouds and fairies and lovely things as you lie there with your eyes closed.
 * 9)  Keep your head on a comfortable pillow or two. If your head isn't supported, it may give you a neck ache and nightmares.
 * 10)  Keep a cold drink by your bedside table. If you get to hot, or wake up after a night mare, you will want something cool and refreshing to help  calm you down. Water and milk are best.

Tips

 * Don't eat chocolate or sweets before bed as they will keep you awake.
