idk if any of these will work for you bc tbh, i'm a bit blesssed in the sleep dpt. i usually dont have problems but here's some things i'll do if i am not drifting quickly.
The "Full Body" - start at your toes and completely relax them. Work your way up from toes to the tip of your head (I never make it all the way). You have to really be mindful about whether or not each body part is truly and fully relaxed.
The "Just Rest" - don't put any pressure on yourself to fall asleep. Remind yourself that even laying there, eyes closed, is rest and is good for your body.
The Day Dream - my usual method. Start to imagine a fun scenario. I mean really get into it and the details. I usually end up transitioning into a dream from here.
gonna try this but also wanted to throw out my go-to lately (recent matcha convert)
1tsp ippodo horai matcha
eyeballed 170°F hot water, whisk
one lil squeeze of honey
almond milk over ice
froth up 1/2-3/4 a box of (strawberry/taro/banana) flavored milk
top almond milk w/ your flavored milk froth, top w your matcha over all that
mix & enjoy asf
Doechii's swamp sessions have all been brilliant & now I'm enthusiastically anticipating the drop of her mix tape Alligator Bites Never Heal at the end of August
Kali Uchis' Orqueidas deluxe album is out and Como Debe Ser is just gorgeous
Joey Valence & Brae have brought silly, fun, bright punk hip-hop back and I'm loving the entirety of their No Hands album. Must listen if you're a Beastie Boys fan.
Flo Milli's Tiny Desk put me on to her music. This performance suits her style and voice so wonderfully.
Charli XCX's Brat doesn't need introduction or an explanation
