Meditation
I am finding meditation to be a very useful tool when I can not fall asleep. What keeps me up is not having enough time in the day to get everything I want to, done. So as I lay in bed, knowing I need to get rest so I can be at my best in the morning, I start with deep belly breathes. I place one hand on my tummy and one on my chest. I make sure the hand on the stomach is the only one moving. Then as I lay there nice and warm under the covers I picture myslf on a nice warm beach just relaxing feeling the warm sun, and I let the feeling of just being at the beach take over me. I then focus on nothing but the dark my eyelids create........and I am asleep.

You are right! Deep belly breathing is, sometimes, the only way I can fall asleep. It's amazing, when I wake up I remember almost immediately that the breathing technique worked and I am refreshed mentally if not completely physically. :) Great info to share with those who will really listen.
