Insomnia sucks. Unfortunately, about 10 percent of Americans have it. Even those who don’t have nights when they are tossing and turning, wondering if they will ever get a good night’s rest. If you’re a mom, you have a hectic work schedule or you simply struggle with getting six or more hours of solid shut eye, you might wonder if you’ll EVER know that it’s like to be a bona fide sleeping beauty.

First up, if you’ve been sleeping less than five hours a night for more than a month (and you don’t have a newborn in the house), make an appointment to see your doctor. Sleep deprivation can affect your health, if you’re not careful. But if you’re simply looking for a few proven ways to fall asleep faster (and stay asleep once you do), no worries. We’ve got you covered.

About Shellie Reneé

Just a woman who digs all things relationships. HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS, that is. I've been writing (professionally) for close to 20 years, including having two books published. I'm also a marriage life coach and doula. Sometimes I speak to large audiences or do radio interviews, but usually I'm sitting in my favorite chair, surfin' the 'net and penning stuff that I wish I had read in my early 20s.

Listen, I don't have all the answers, not by a LOOOOONG shot. But whatever I can do to spare folks any heartbreak, bitterness or straight-up drama, I'll devote some keystrokes to doing. 

That's it...in a nutshell. For the most part. Kinda. ;)
