Prescription drugs may help with symptoms, but they don't address the underlying cause of your sleep problem.
Natural Remedies for Insomnia
Even during my years of insomnia and sleep problems, I chose to try natural remedies for my insomnia. Often it will be a combination of lifestyle choices involving stress reduction, more exercise, a healthy diet, and improved relationships to get the results you are looking for. Here are some of the things I found helpful:
Exercise and Sleep
Working as a registered nurse with a long commute, I left home at 6:30 AM and would get home between 6:30 and 8:00 PM. This didn't leave much time for exercise. My job entailed sitting at a desk using a computer and a telephone. Unfortunately, this scenario is true for many of you as well. People sit in their cars for a long ride to work, sit in front of a computer all day and then sit in the car for a nasty commute home. Find out what kind of exercise you need, how long you should exercise and when to exercise.
