Splash it on

water droplets

Here’s a quick tip if you can’t sleep.  You know, you wake up with a headache or you’re just feeling restless, and you’re feeling hot.  You try and try, or you just try not to try, but you can’t get back to sleep.  The tip?  Try water.

No, don’t drink it.  Splash it on your skin – your legs, your arms, your stomach, wherever.  Nice cool water.  Not a gallon, just enough to get wet.  Seriously!  Splashing water onto your skin will cool off your skin, and will actually make it easier for you to get back to sleep.  You may even find that you can avoid the painkillers, or the warm milk (which after all might cause another trip in the night!).  Give it a try next time you wake up hot and restless.

Great suggestion! It’s not something that I’ve ever thought of, but it makes a lot of sense. Thanks for sharing it.

It’s worked for me (sometimes)! :)
