Develop and describe a long-term plan for improving sleep habits.

Gradually go to bed 15 minutes earlier each night. Begin doing some kind of physical activity an 45 minutes to an hour before bed each night. Activities such as going for a run, going for a swim in your pool, doing a series of short cardio workouts, or even something as simple as going for a walk around the neighborhood. This assures that your post-exercise drop in body temperatures promotes tiredness. This can also help decrease things that keep you awake at night like anxiety or arousal.
