These 4 weird tricks will help you fall asleep faster

3. Glass of water

A lot of people avoid drinking water before they go to sleep because they’re afraid they’ll have to get out of bed to pee in the middle of the night. Yet you can really benefit from drinking a glass of water before bed, as well as one just after you’ve woken up. You dehydrate quite a bit during the night, which causes your brain to shrink. Because of that, you wake up feeling more sleepy. By drinking a glass of water before bed you’ll prevent dehydration. That way, blood and oxygen will continue going up to your brain, which helps you to sleep better and wake up more refreshed.

4. A tidy room
