1. Progressive muscle relaxation: Start by tensing and releasing each muscle group in the body from your toes all the way up to your forehead.
2. Mindfulness meditation: Focusing on the sensations of your breath can help center your mind, allowing you to drift more easily into sleep.
3. Guided imagery: Choose a calming scene to focus on and imagine in as much detail as possible.
4. Body scan meditation: Starting at your toes, gradually move up your body and focus on any sensations you may be feeling.
5. Yoga Nidra: A practice of systematic relaxation that involves listening to a guided meditation while lying down or seated in a comfortable position.
