I've really been having a hard time going to sleep lately, so I thought I'd look to my pandas for advice!

I have trouble sleeping a lot too! Here are a few tips I found help: - A warm cup of chamomile tea before bed - White noise (my favorite is soft rain, but I also love waves) - A comfort blanket - Sleeping with a blanket under me instead of just the sheet...it feels more like a hug. - Positive thoughts or reading something comfortable so that you don't sleep on an anxious thought topic. Stargazing also helps with this. - Flipping my mattress over every few weeks. For some reason my body will get tired of how it feels and will stay awake. And then when I flip it over, I can sleep again. - Having a plan for if I wake up in the middle of the night. Instead of lying there counting the minutes until my alarm goes off, I try to enjoy the silence and read or make up little fairy stories or something. - There are also natural sleep pills you can take. My mom gets them at the local health-food store and they help a lot without actually being a "drug." They also usually wear off in a few hours, so it doesn't affect getting up. Hope some/one of these helps!

    Camomile tea (sometimes), reading, getting off devices/tv at least 30 mins before (I wish I could do that more often), making up scenarios in my head.
