[quote=Anonymous]I spent several years in my late 30’s and early 40’s sleeping like crap… fall asleep okay but wake up and never ever could get back to sleep. 
Stopped drinking almost entirely. Anything more than one glass of wine every couple weeks destroys my sleep. I noticed this within a month of not drinking and i wasn’t a big drinker, just average. 
Cardio exercise, ideally outside so there’s some sunshine involved.
No caffeine after noon, although this seems very individual. I am fine with my morning coffee, but i used to be able to drink coffee all day long… no longer. 
Good sleep hygiene.  I try to stay off my phone for the last couple hrs before bedtime and i read on a kindle paperwhite. 
When i do wake up - and now it’s mostly bc DH is snoring - if i don’t immediately fall back asleep i quickly get up and move to the spare bedroom, where i either read again, or listen to a sleep story.  99% of the time i fall back asleep very very quickly. 
I also take good sleep much more seriously. It’s important to me and should also be importance to anyone who doesn’t want me to kill them lol. [/quote]
