Dr. Neaman's favorite sleep and energy tip?
One of the most effective sleep tips is also very simple! When worry is keeping you awake, get out of bed and engage in "worry time." Set a timer for 15 minutes and write out (don't type!) all of your worries. This might mean you're writing down the same three or four worries over and over again. Don't try to solve the worry, just worry as hard as you can! When the 15 minutes is up, your brain is likely going to be tired of that content and you'll be able to get back in bed with a quieter mind.
