Health / Easy Steps To Sleep With Ease When You Find It Difficult To by niqqaclaimz(m): 7:24am On Apr 27, 2018 |
I did decided to share my new article again with you guys and todays topic is about how to sleep with ease when you find it difficult. If you find it difficult to sleep a times,then I bet this article is meant for you. So read on Sleep is essential and necessary to every human being. The body needs sleep to grow. Sleep does refresh and energies the body. For example ;Before you go to bed you may be feeling so weak and exhausted,then you go to sleep and wake feeling energized and strong,that’s what sleep can do to the body.But not everybody find it easy to sleep and that’s why I made this article, to show what you should do and shouldn’t do to get a good sleep. Number 1 on the list is “distraction” Distraction- To get a good night sleep,you have to eliminate all form of distraction around you. Distraction will keep your mind wandering which makes it difficult for you to get a good sleep. If the eye are open,definitely it will keep picturing and sending scenes to the brain to process and when your brain is at work,you can’t sleep. Your brain needs to shut down all processing for you to sleep.Such distraction could be;Intractraction of people in the room or outside,leaving the room bulb on,loud music etc. Distractions of any kind should be eliminated to get a good sleep. Eating heavy meal for dinner- Eating heavy meal during dinner could be bad as it tends to make you uncomfortable,making it difficult for you to sleep. This case might not be the same with everyone. Some people get uncomfortable if they eat heavy meal and some get sleepy after a heavy meal So this piece is for those who get uncomfortable after a heavy meal and find it difficult to sleep. During noon time,if you planned to sleep after having a meal, then you shouldn’t go too heavy with the meal,try eating little and when you wake if you feel hungry you can eat again.But if at night,is best to have fruits and water because they are light food you can have and they are very easy to digest.So switch your diet up. READ ALSO;HOW TO SLEEP LIKE A BABY Worrying you haven’t slept yet- This is a big turn off to sleep.You shouldn’t worry about not sleeping yet. Try taking it off your mind,including any other worries you have in mind. To get started with this try going to the bathroom and bath with a cool water,get out, feel good and get back to bed.I bet this is a sure deal, So give it a try. Watching tv or scanning through your phone in bed- Watching the television or scanning through your phone could be another reason you find it hard to sleep immediately you get into bed. You might ask,what’s wrong with watching television or going through your phone before sleep??. Let’s assume you are watching late night news from the television and you are updated on the latest happening.You literally just put you mind to work,as your brain will keep processing the information and scenes it just saw and heard. Due to this,you will experience difficult in sleeping. it is advisable to get away from your gadgets an hour before going to the bed so as to get a good sleep. So if you’re a victim of this act then you should try switching off your gadgets 1 hour before bed. Slow down your breath- When you get into bed and you are experiencing difficulties to sleep then you should try to slow down your breath a bit. This exercise tends to get the body in the mood to sleep as it tends to make the body cool and keep the mind focused on breathing slowly. When doing this, try to keep your eyes close to keep the focus tight. Plays some music- Music can be an aid to situations like this. Music tends to calm the body and soul down. Some nice soft music can get you to sleep.If you have a music set or home theater, select your favorite cool music,get it playing, turn volume down a bit and get to bed and see how this turn out.

Lemme repharse a litle bit. Would you believe if i told you tomatoes is a citrus fruit?? Tomatoes is a red citrus fruit which is mistaken to be a vegetable. This fruit is found anywhere around the world and is used to prepare dish such as stew,jellof rice, salad,add to indomie to make it palatable. Due to the high acidity in tomatoes it can be stored or canned. Adult and children eat it while some prefer it in dish. Personal I did prefer it to dish but when I started to research on tomatoes and how beneficial it could be to human health, I found out that it’s nutrients are best utilized and beneficial to the body when eaten in it’s fresh state.So I had to switch things up by eating it in it’s fresh state. So here are the benefits of eating tomatoes Prevent and fight cancer- Tomatoes contains a substance called lycopene. This substance lycopene in tomatoes makes it red. The lycopene when in human system fights and ward off cancer. The good part about this is that it fights all type of cancer. Postrate cancer,stomach cancer name it,it prevent and fights it off. Lower’s risk of heart disease- Research and study has been made and it was found out that people who eat more of tomatoes tend to have lower risk of heart disease. Nutrients such as folate,vitamin B6 and niacin help to reduce cardiovascular disease. So it is essential you eat at least two fresh ball of tomatoes. Reduce depression- Study has shown that more intake of tomatoes help to reduce depression. Tomatoes contain this nutrients named folate. High concentration of folate in human system help reduce depression which tomatoes is rich in. Lower sugar level- Tomatoes contains an antioxidant named alpha-lipoic acid.This alpha-lipoic acid help turn glucose into energy.The ALA enhances the body ability to use it’s own insulin to lower sugar level in blood and also fights diabetes type 2. The Ala also reduce symptoms of neuropathy which causes nerve damage and is caused by diabetes. A good healthy skin- Tomatoes is rich in vitamin c which the collagen,the connective tissue in our skin which helps with firmness,supply and constant renewal which is vital for skin elasticity. So the collagen needs vitamin c to function well. Vitamin c protects the skin from sun damage,pollutants and harmful uv rays. Healthy hair- Do you experience hair damage as hair fall often and you don’t know how to go about it,tomatoes is a sure bet,a good remedy.Tomatoes would provide your scalp with the nutrition it needs to grow. How do you go about this; Just grind about 2-3 balls of tomatoes and apply the juice to your scalp and leave for 20 minutes the wash it with luke warm water. READ ALSO;HOME REMEDIES FOR DAMAGED HAIR Improve your eye health- Vitamin A is essential for a bright healthy sight. Low level of vitamin A in the body will lead to your eyes having hard time to detect light and send visual information to the brain. So having a cup of tomatoes which is 2-3 ball of tomatoes contains around 700mcg-900mcg of vitamin A. So it is essential you have this everyday as it helps eye vision to be sharp and healthy and being able to detect light and send visual information to the brain. Control cholesterol level- Vitamin B as well as potassium help lower cholesterol level which usually goes high as a result of unbalanced meal which is high in sugar and unhealthy fat which can lead to heart disease.
