| Scroll DCUM?? I tidied up the kitchen and then had a snack. After another hour of trying to sleep, I read my kindle in bed for a while. I usually don’t like to do anything because hat seems to make it worse, but also laying in bed unable to sleep is pretty awful. |

I get out of bed and start working. Eventually you’ll get so physically tired that you’ll go to sleep. |

| I meditate. Insomnia for me is when my brain won’t stop thinking, and meditation is where I practice separating myself from my thoughts behind and resting in a quiet place. I’ve done this enough now that I can start meditating and be asleep in a few minutes. |

+1. If I can’t sleep, I don’t. I just get up and start my day. There’s always so much on my to do list that getting up at 3 am doesn’t matter. There are also 24 hour grocery stores, etc so I get errands like that out of the way. |

| I eat something. It resets something, and I can usually sleep after. |
