I use deep breathing exercises to relax before sleep. I sleep well at night, and if I wake, I read. My husband says he sleeps well because he has a pure heart and a clear conscience.... He trained himself to sleep any time he could while he was in the army. All people are different.
dh was a marine.. he can sleep anywhere... in fact, if he is horizontal.. he is asleep..

i resorted to hrt for the hot flashes..lowest possible dose, & only take every other day... makes the flashes bearable...reduces the risks involved in taking them..
also, i take melatonin (sp?) everynite.. makes a huge difference. i sleep thru the night... i hadn't done that in years.
