Step 1: Lie face up in bed and relax your facial muscles.
Step 2: Drop your shoulders as low as possible. This will also help you stretch and release the tension in your neck. Then relax your upper and lower arm on one side and then try it with the other arm. At the end, include your hands and fingers.
Step 3: Breathe out and relax your chest. Feel your lungs fill up with air.
Step 4: Relax your legs and then focus on your feet and ankles.
Step 5: Now that the muscles in your body are relaxed. It’s time to clear your mind completely. Imagine yourself lying in a canoe on a calm lake with nothing but a clear blue sky above you. This technique will help you get to sleep faster and for longer.
