if you have bad insomnia then my advice is, never buy "sleep well with Coby Zvickler" I put it on and after the initial laughter, I was scared by the voice of a man who sounded like Brian off Ideal telling me he was going to "make me relax by cocooning me in a safe place where I couldn't be disturbed or harmed"
My actual good advice, and this is from someone who works shifts and quite often is in bed by 7 in order to fulfill his recommended eu quota of beauty sleep, is as follows. Do you have a tv and DVD/VHS player in your bedroom (I'm pretty sure I saw one through the window, next to those nice lilac pjs I saw hanging up) failing that some kind of audio player? Do you have a DVD or similar of something you've watched over and over again?for me it's Dylan Moran, Monster. Pop it on at a volume that's loud enough to hear comfortably, but no so loud it keeps you awake. Get yourself comfy, close your eyes and listen to it. This will stop you thinking, all those thought and what ifs you have, the my god I'm gonna be tired in the morning thoughts, but because it's something you know well you won't concentrate or feel the need to pay full attention. It gets more effective you more familiar you are with what you are listening to.
Good idea, but my bedroom is technology free, and my pyjamas are grey and pink stripes this week btw.
I don't have such a problem getting to sleep at the moment, it's staying asleep that's the problem. The last two nights it's felt like I've only gotten about 2 or 3 hours of real sleep (which I've definitely had because I keep having dreams about The Hot Photographer) then the rest of the time I'm almost asleep..but not quite. Last Thursday I slept like a very asleep thing for 4.5 hours, then woke up, fully awake. Sucks big time.0 -

ahh pink and grey from a distance looks like lilac. And the same can be achieved if you wake up, just pop a much loved cassette or record on help you drift back off, and a ghetto blaster or record player isn't hard to pop in the room. If you like I'll send you a copy of the only record my band made ten years ago. My 12 inch was very popular around Wolverhampton and was in and out of the number 2 slot for weeks. Those days are long gone though0 -
