Wow thank you again. She's really amazing. Just yesterday the day before yesterday I listen to her advice. No coffee after 3:00 pm. Omg so true I crashed I felt like I was going through withdrawal I was waking up with sweating & freezing. It's all from all this coffee. Today I feel tired little more & kind of nervous like shaky but I understand. No more. I'm already on medication because I have medical problems & coffe I guess wasn't helping. 4 kids crazy husband omg so I'm trying. Thank you ❤❤❤
@NurseSarahJeffries no thank you so much. I dill with a lot I have ptsd, adhd, really bad enexoyety and panic attacks 😢 I been on medication which is for adgd I'm on adderall for seizure & panic attacks I'm on benzos, I'm also on ptsd madisan prazosin I my misspell & I have really bad decese "Cachexia " which is so so painful 😒 😔 so I'm going through a lot & went through recovery 6 years clean from addiction but also I'm still on all this medication because it's a lot. So when I listen to you wow you just such Angel. It's hard for people to understand & specially what kind a decese I have & the other stuff. But your advice is amazing & even though I have to do whatever I can but your advice helping a lot thank you so very much. And yes I love to share my story I don't have like social media because I can't dill with it mentally I only love to watch you now & simple stuff because every little thing it's like a trigger so I try to only see positive ❤️ thank you for letting me share & you amazing. Yes you can share my story because out of all videos on shorts yours really help. And it's natural thank you 😊 🙏
It’s over 100• F here in the day and close to 80 at night. It would cost a fortune to cool my bedroom down to 65. I sweat all night long. My bedroom is probably 80 at its coolest all night. 2 fans!
Wow, this video is a game-changer! I had no idea that keeping the room cooler and sticking to a consistent sleep schedule could make such a difference. Can't wait to try the Navy technique tonight-thanks for the clear instructions!
I love ❤️ her & thank you since 2 moths ago I listen & continue at least almost every day to do those instruction it helps specially I go through a lot so thank you. ❤❤❤
Hi nurse Jeffries,i really want to thank you.I was reaching the point of desperation with my struggles with sleep.Now I'm finally able to fall off to sleep,with the help of your techniques.The only problem I'm having now is holding on to that sleep, especially during the daytime,I loose my sleep so quickly.Any advice?
The thoughts that are keeping you awake are coming from your subconscious mind. Sometimes they are obvious things you are stressing over. But sometimes they are subsurface, so they can't be identified. Either way, you can shut them down by gently talking to your subconscious mind. In a slow, very relaxed manner start saying in your mind, "Stop, stop, stop". View it like it's a soothing mantra. That alone will relieve some or all of the underlying stress. Just keep going with it. This temporarily overrides the thoughts coming from your subconscious mind and eventually convinces it that you don't want those thoughts. After a few minutes, see if you can then fall asleep. If not then start doing it again. Some people can get to sleep by merely counting upwards (in their mind) in a slow, relaxed manner. Repeating any phrase will temporarily override your subconscious thoughts.
These are all great tips! When I go to bed I already fall asleep in under 2 minutes and sleep 4 hours but Can you make a video for waking up in the middle of the night in high level pain?
Love the advice on sleep! And also, like you mentioned in the comment section, listening to white noise may help improve sleep quality. Personally, I like to listen to nature sounds like rain and thunder, and gentle flowing water sounds from a brook. I haven't tried the particular breathing technique you mentioned so I'm gonna give that a go! Thanks and subscribed!
@@NurseSarahJeffries Breathing techniques are much more effective for me when kept simple; I inhale for 4 seconds and exhale for 4 seconds. Thank you once again for the wonderful tips!
❤thank you. I really try to do all this things except I need to stop coffe after 2 or 3:00 pm. I get bad anexoyty panic attacks 😞 so It's hard. But I'm trying thank you 😊 🙏 for your advice

Thanks for the tips Sarah. Although i have a unique problem. I get pain on the side I sleep, like my left leg if i sleep on the left side, or left arm, left outer ear... i wake up n turn the other side until i feel pain that side, like in 2- 3 hours... doctors i have seen have no clue... any lead or remedy is appreciated. Thank you.
@@NurseSarahJeffries it's a coir mattress with some foam, not soft or hard... I have tried changing mattress. I have a clotting disorder n I am on thinner (Xarelto) from a few years. Also have varicose veins. I have asked both hematologist n vascular specialist, they both straight dismissed it's related to that. I feel numbness or soreness, sometimes it continues after waking up also.
@@munikoti84 oh yeah with that medication theres a few things to think about from educational stand point; 1. **Sleep Position**: Try alternating your sleep positions. If you usually sleep on one side, mix it up by sleeping on your back or stomach. This can help distribute pressure more evenly and might prevent soreness. 2. **Mattress Topper**: Even though you've changed mattresses, consider adding a high-quality mattress topper with memory foam or latex. This can provide extra cushioning and support. 3. **Body Pillow**: Use a body pillow to help maintain a comfortable position and reduce pressure on specific areas. It can also assist with spinal alignment and reduce strain. 4. **Pillow Adjustments**: Make sure you're using a pillow that supports proper neck alignment. Placing a pillow between your knees can also help align your hips and reduce strain on your lower back and legs when sleeping on your side. 5. **Gentle Stretching and Exercise**: Incorporate gentle stretching exercises before bed and after waking up. This can help improve circulation and reduce muscle stiffness. Low-impact exercises like yoga or swimming can also strengthen muscles and improve overall circulation. 6. **Compression Stockings**: compression stockings during the day can help manage varicose veins and improve overall blood flow. - ask your doc about them. 7. **Hydration**: Stay well-hydrated. Proper hydration can improve blood flow and reduce muscle cramping. 8. **Heat Therapy**: A warm compress or a heating pad on sore areas before bed. This can help relax muscles and improve circulation. 9. **Consultation with a Physical Therapist**: Consider seeing a physical therapist. They can assess your posture and movement patterns and provide tailored exercises and recommendations to alleviate your discomfort. 10. **Review of Medications**: Although your hematologist and vascular specialist have dismissed a connection, it might still be beneficial to review your medications with them again to ensure there are no side effects contributing to your symptoms. --- I hope these suggestions help you find some relief!
@@NurseSarahJeffries Thank you so much for writing! I do use compression stockings and I generally stay active - walk, cycle, do yoga. I will definitely look into all the points you mentioned and try incorporating them. Thanks again!
Hi Sarah. I finally got diagnosed with fibromyalgia, almost after 15 years after the first symptoms appeared. When I look back, it started right with first thrombosis episode.
Thanks for your nice suggestions. I use to take slipping pills, but sometimes at night when i try many such things without taking a pill or wanna give up pills, it continuously strikes me and at the end, just for mental satisfaction, i take it to bring my tension down. Could be a great help if you can tell me a way forward how to think positively about sleeping without taking a pill.
I'm guilty of the food , cafine and alcohol before bed. I did cut out the beer for a wile m I guess I have some more cutting to do. Thanks for the great info.
If you can’t fall asleep it is still better to stay in bed. Getting up just reinforces a bad habit and just lying in bed is beneficial to the body even if you don’t sleep. Another important point is that early sleep is more restful and rejuvenating than later sleep even if you manage to get the same amount of actual sleep, so get into bed early in the evening rather than staying up late. How is that NHS working for everyone over in Britishstan?
@matktapley7571 Fact: everyone is different, all suggestions are helpful to get to understand what best applies to you. Nifty, eh? What's with the condescending question at the end of your comment?
Hi doctor please help me. I usually tend to play football intensely from 21:00 to 22:30. Despite of not using my phone and doing easily stretching exercise to cool down after playing football, I'm struggling to falling to deep sleep. Please give me advice. If you guys have like this problem or solution to that, please share your experiences, I apprecitate it.
Hi there! first of all im a nurse specialist - not a doc (much better ha) Playing football late at night can definitely make it harder to fall into a deep sleep, and you're not alone in this! Here's why and what you can do to improve your sleep quality: 1️⃣ Exercise Timing: Intense activity close to bedtime can keep your body temperature and adrenaline levels elevated, which may interfere with sleep. If possible, try shifting your football sessions earlier in the evening. 2️⃣ Relaxation Techniques: You're already cooling down with stretches, which is great! Add in some deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation to help lower your heart rate and signal to your body that it's time to rest. 3️⃣ Post-Exercise Routine: After football, try taking a warm, soothing shower or bath, this can help your body and muscles relax, making it easier to fall asleep. 4️⃣ Nutrition: Avoid heavy meals, caffeine, or sugary drinks late at night as these can disrupt your sleep cycle. Opt for something light if you're hungry after playing. If these tips don’t help, feel free to share more details about your routine, and we’ll figure it out together. Also, to everyone else reading this-have you faced similar issues? Drop your experiences and solutions below! Let’s help each other out. 😊
White noise can also help people to fall asleep. The noise masks disruptive sounds and creates a calming environment. It promotes faster sleep onset, and deeper rest, and can be soothing for babies.
This was all the problems I was facing to go to sleep, your video miss, came like a magic bullet, I'm doing good last couple days, also also I love the accent, are you from the UK???
I went o the gym today at 2PM and took pre workout. Now it’s 2AM at night and I can’t sleep. People say don’t take it too close before bed time but that’s almost 12 hours gap between in. I don’t know what should I do I can’t sleep
What is the quantity of caffeine or guaranine? With most pre-workouts I'd be awake with heart palpitations all night unless taken before a 10:00 am workout, or earlier.
Whenever i sleep at 10 pm or at 10 pm,i usually Wake up after two hours of sleep and can't get back.please help me if you can.in hte morning i have migraine.
it has been 40 + hours of me trying to sleep i just cant fall asleep no matter what i try, im tired, im sleepy too but when i get into bed i would lie there fro hours and just cant sleep.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m really sorry to hear you’re going through this. Not being able to sleep for such a long time can be incredibly frustrating and exhausting. It sounds like your body is feeling the need for sleep, but something might be preventing it from settling into a restful state. Here are a few things that may help: 1. Relaxation Techniques: Try calming methods like deep breathing, meditation, or progressive muscle relaxation. These can help ease tension and signal your body that it’s time to sleep. 2. Sleep Environment: Make sure your room is dark, quiet, and cool. Even small changes like reducing light or noise can make a big difference. 3. Avoid Stimulants: Caffeine, certain medications, and even stress hormones can keep you wired. Try avoiding these, especially before bedtime. 4. Get Out of Bed: If you’re lying awake for a long time, sometimes it’s better to get out of bed, do a quiet activity (like reading or listening to calming music), and then try again once you’re feeling more relaxed. If this persists, please consider reaching out to a healthcare professional, as prolonged sleeplessness can have underlying causes that need attention. I hope you find some rest soon!
Naps are the worse. If I am tired, it takes an hour or two to fall asleep. If I give in to taking a nap, it makes me feel worse…. I don’t understand why people think they help.
It maybe better to say : depends on individual environment ( if you feel too hot , make it cooler when one ready to sleep; if you feel too cold make it warmer when you get ready to sleep).
If I tell you do not think about the banana 🍌, first you imagine the banana and then you have to remove that image from your brain. It is better to directly put in your brain an image that brings tranquility to you.
I'm a student and also I'm working ! My sleep hours is b/n 11:00pm-4:00 am ..but i can also take a nap if i want ( but i dont know if its good ) ..but nowadays im feeling sleepy during z morning hours ...i would love to hear if u got any advice for me but I do have about 2 hours free during mid day, should I use z's hours to compensate my sleep ...tnks ...i just got introduced to u tdy
Are you able to sleep earlier - that 4am wake up must be tough! If not then catching up with a nap if you need to - make sure it’s not too late in the day
I drink green tee with a few pieces of chocolate before bed and sleep like a baby. 😊 Relaxation videos on Acidalia Planitia Channel also is a huge help.
@@NurseSarahJeffries , there's caffeine in green tea. So, sipping green tea before bed could help you if you're struggling with your sleep. That's because L-theanine is found in green tea! This is an amino acid with a number of great properties. It helps you relax and reduces anxiety, which will be a huge benefit if you struggle to sleep each night.
Are you doing any of these things before bed? How is your sleep?

Can you make a short video that only teach the military sleep method so some viewers can just save it and watch it every night to practice it?
I’m up and have school it is 3:00 AM
1:48 am for me brother
The relaxation technique is similar to what has been used in yoga and the Robert Monroe Institute to teach OBEs (out of body experiences).
What about pinch nerve of the neck not knowing which cervical pillow/roll can help,and no professional bother to help fitting the right one ??!!
My sleep coach advised to get up at the same time every day but only to go to bed when tired, this is not necessarily the same time every day.

Thank you so much 😀
I went o the gym today at 2PM and took pre workout. Now it’s 2AM at night and I can’t sleep. People say don’t take it too close before bed time but that’s almost 12 hours gap between in. I don’t know what should I do I can’t sleep
Stop using stimulants
What exactly is in the pre workout?
What is the quantity of caffeine or guaranine? With most pre-workouts I'd be awake with heart palpitations all night unless taken before a 10:00 am workout, or earlier.
The blue light glasses don't seem to be available.
im waiting to re-stock.
I have school and I am up watching videos how o sleep faster 💤 and I have school at 9:00
What or don't feel sleeping at night or morning
Whenever i sleep at 10 pm or at 10 pm,i usually Wake up after two hours of sleep and can't get back.please help me if you can.in hte morning i have migraine.
If my last drink is at 8:30 and go to bed at midnight does this interfere with my sleep? Also does taking sleep pills make you lose weight?
why would they, as they are designed to help you sleep? You might be getting sleeping tablets mixed up with weight loss injections..
short answer ..yes...it helps you to sleep through dinner....the more you sleep the less you can feed your fat ass...hope this helps
Wow when I first saw u I thought u were Sonya Walger., I got lost for a second. sorry, great tips, will try
😊 thank you
Thats the sleep yoga (yoga nindra) practiced by ancient yogis
I drink a pop called Pepsi Zero an hour before bed: yes it has caffeine, but it relaxes me. (for what it is worth).
I am ready it's my fìr

it has been 40 + hours of me trying to sleep i just cant fall asleep no matter what i try, im tired, im sleepy too but when i get into bed i would lie there fro hours and just cant sleep.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m really sorry to hear you’re going through this. Not being able to sleep for such a long time can be incredibly frustrating and exhausting. It sounds like your body is feeling the need for sleep, but something might be preventing it from settling into a restful state.
Here are a few things that may help:
1. Relaxation Techniques: Try calming methods like deep breathing, meditation, or progressive muscle relaxation. These can help ease tension and signal your body that it’s time to sleep.
2. Sleep Environment: Make sure your room is dark, quiet, and cool. Even small changes like reducing light or noise can make a big difference.
3. Avoid Stimulants: Caffeine, certain medications, and even stress hormones can keep you wired. Try avoiding these, especially before bedtime.
4. Get Out of Bed: If you’re lying awake for a long time, sometimes it’s better to get out of bed, do a quiet activity (like reading or listening to calming music), and then try again once you’re feeling more relaxed.
If this persists, please consider reaching out to a healthcare professional, as prolonged sleeplessness can have underlying causes that need attention. I hope you find some rest soon!
1:11 lol like my comment if your wake and it night time were your at
It is 4:14
1:50
Tried ALL of these and can’t fall asleep at all! Not even for a few minutes. My doctor told me to take Unisom but it really didn’t help.
Melatonin Benadryl, Lunesta Ambien… Valerian root… There’s a ton of supplements on Amazon
I played this video and slept 🛐🏃
Naps are the worse. If I am tired, it takes an hour or two to fall asleep. If I give in to taking a nap, it makes me feel worse…. I don’t understand why people think they help.
They work wonder for some. I’ve worked shifts for years and I can take a quick 10 min cat nap if I needed and feel refreshed - but others….no way!!
If I am hungry before bed, there is no way I will fall asleep.
Not everyone feel comfortable with 65 degree F or 18 degree C. That is way too cold for me or most people living in South East Asia.
Even if it’s just a little cooler? - the body sleep better when the body and room is cooler
@@NurseSarahJeffries thanks. I do agree just a little cooler does help in falling asleep.
It maybe better to say : depends on individual environment ( if you feel too hot , make it cooler when one ready to sleep; if you feel too cold make it warmer when you get ready to sleep).
18c is wayyy too hot to sleep in. I live in England and the ideal sleeping temp is 10c.
No chance to reach 18 degree except in winter.
I start at my feet and work my way up... navy vet
Please use captions
Can u auto turn them on?
Do not say don't think, because the brain doesn't understand the no. Tell the brain to think about something calming
Not necessarily true. A meditative state is simply achieved with little practice.
Definitely takes practice. But yeah if you can’t think then that’ll work too
If I tell you do not think about the banana 🍌, first you imagine the banana and then you have to remove that image from your brain. It is better to directly put in your brain an image that brings tranquility to you.
I can't do it without checking the time
You can…. Put your phone in another room!
If i am cold i cant sleep i like to be warm so this wont work for me
So you never wake up from being hot?
I'm going to bed now. I'll let you know how far I got before falling asleep
3 nights and still haven't made it past 4:00

Not working for me. Went to bed at 11PM, followed all the advice in the video, but still awake 6 hours later.

Welcome!! 🤗
Are you able to sleep earlier - that 4am wake up must be tough! If not then catching up with a nap if you need to - make sure it’s not too late in the day

I drink green tee with a few pieces of chocolate before bed and sleep like a baby. 😊 Relaxation videos on Acidalia Planitia Channel also is a huge help.
Awesome 👏🏻 The caffeine in the choc doesn’t affect you?
@@NurseSarahJeffries , there's caffeine in green tea. So, sipping green tea before bed could help you if you're struggling with your sleep. That's because L-theanine is found in green tea! This is an amino acid with a number of great properties. It helps you relax and reduces anxiety, which will be a huge benefit if you struggle to sleep each night.
