Tip 37, for 7/23/08

I had a request for some sleep related tips... Since they're short I figure I'll do a couple per post

1. You cannot consciously make yourself fall asleep, thinking about waiting for your body to fall asleep usually has the opposite of the intended effect. Therefore, distract your brain if you're having trouble falling asleep. Read a book, listen to quiet music or watch TV (baseball is my favorite to nap to in the summer).

2. Don't let yourself sleep in too much or take long naps. As with bowel movements, your body likes your sleep habits to be very regular. Don't fight this if you can help it.
