I've been having trouble sleeping lately. Last night I was up until 4am even though I was tired at 11 and ready to sleep.
Typically when I can't sleep, I just watch tv (try to watch something kind of boring) until I pass out. I'm just too tired to do anything productive. I know not the best way to get to sleep... but just a long term habit I guess.
What do you do?

I stay in bed, with the lights out and I meditate. The worse thing you can do is expose your body to any light in that situation.
If that doesn't work, I go to the guest room.

I usually go on my phone, and play solitaire.. The repetitiveness of the game usually puts me to sleep after a while!

Crossword puzzles. It makes my brain tired and my husband often finds me asleep with my tablet still in my hand.

@looch: ditto. Stay in bed and try to focus on breathing. When I can't sleep it's because my mind is running in circles. Once I stop thinking, my body can settle down.
