How to fall asleep fast? Everyone sometimes gets into a situation where falling asleep becomes really difficult. If you have anxiety or if you're stressed before an important event, falling asleep and staying asleep might be a problem. And it can be even more difficult to fall asleep before midnight when you used to stay up late. But there are some techniques that can help.

Did you know, for example, that the blue glow from the phone screen blocks the hormone melatonin, which reminds your body when it's time to sleep by making you feel tired? Stop using your phone at least an hour before bedtime. If you need to calm down your nerves to get some good rest, try to write your thoughts in a diary for 5 minutes before bedtime. These and some other methods will help you slide into the dream world of Morpheus.
