8 easy tips to fall asleep in less than 10 minutes:
1) Exercise
Research shows exercise decreases insomnia.
Moderate exercise increases slow-wave (deep) sleep.
Exercising too late in the evening can keep you awake.
Exercise during the first half of the day for best results.

3) Put away your clock
Don’t keep a clock within eyesight of your bed.
Looking at the clock can cause “sleep anxiety.”
This is a psychological condition where we worry about not falling asleep.
Seeing how long you’ve been awake will likely keep you awake even longer.

4) Take a hot shower or bath
Your body temperature drops after a hot shower or bath.
This has a similar effect to turning down your thermostat.
A lower body temperature tells your system “it’s time to sleep.”
The hot water also relaxes your mind, muscles, and nervous system.

5) Get sunlight in the morning
Direct morning sunlight sets off a timer in your system.
Melatonin (the sleep hormone) gets released 12-16 hours later.
This makes your sleep/wake cycle more consistent.
Get 15 minutes of direct sunlight each morning.

7) Avoid caffeine late in the day
It takes up to 12 hours for your system to fully process caffeine.
Watch out for sneaky caffeine sources such as:
• Teas
• Sodas
• Chocolate
Even decaf coffee has trace amounts of caffeine.
Stop caffeine at least 12 hours before bed.
