Trouble sleeping? I also have this. In fact, as I write this my boyfriend is sound asleep and I know I won't be sleeping for hours. If you haven't already do a bit of research about sleep hygiene. What works for me is making sure all lights are off and windows are covered so headlights won't bother me. Also setting a routine helps train your body as to when it is time to sleep. It's a good idea to try to go to sleep and wake up at a similar time each day. Making sure you have had a good roductive day especially with exercise helps me sleep better. I also use lavender and frankincense essential oils. Sometimes I take a not too hot shower to try to help my muscles relax. I also try to do a structured meditation where I close my eyes and try to visualize my body turning into a glowing liquid which is melting, starting with my feet and proceeding all the way to the top of my head. Sometimes with this visualization I flex the muscles before imagining them melting to use the let down from flexing the muscles to lock in a relaxed state. I'm sure you will find more tips online, I wish you good luck with getting sleep

Oh wow, you made such an effort to give me all those tips, that is very sweet of you!
I have this problem for such a long time & I have so much experience with it that I already tried everything and even published a post about it some days ago!
I also always had trouble with high blood pressure & I just love to sleep (this is one of the reasons I became self-employed hahaha, waking up to work for some person I don't care about ain't nuffin for me)! So I guess I really need to hire someone someday to kick my ass outta bed, I probably will kick his ass in return, sleep is just holy for me but I also know that my social life suffers when I don't wake up early!
I sometimes miss gym sessions too as my gym is not open 24/7.
I really have no clue how I can fix this, fact is I have no reason to wake up in time. I love my sleep, I can work when I want and I can also workout at home and I only meet the brothers of my gang twice per month.
I feel guilty now, as a leader I have to embrace discomfort and lead by example. Guess I have to pull an allnighter or gradually decrease the hours I am awake.
Anyway. this has to change starting today.
