Enchant the bed itself to encourage sleep. It also helps to never use your bed for anything except sleep.
My electromagnetic barrier i made to try to defend against spirits also runs constantly while i sleep. The only thing i know it prevents is wireless signals, but that shuts up my cell phone real quick.
Change your protection. You could be causing your own problem. Candle light and a chamomile mint tea before bed might be relaxing enough to let you rest. Hope this helps. Blessed Be...
no, you are exposed to a more intense magnetic pull if you have magnets near you... It doesn't have any adverse effects on your body.
It does block wireless signals, and theoretically lower your exposure to natural radiation, but that's not really notable, because the amount you are hit with daily is so low it may as well be not present. I'm not really crazy enough to put it up as a shield against an x-ray device or something... Yet.
I know it may work for some but warm milk has never worked for me.
I find that stretching, relaxing, and then I find something that normally bores me and do that and it usually knocks me right out. lol You know stuff like housework :P lol and try listening to music that puts you to sleep while doing it.
Ok but seriously how often does this happen? If not that much then it is probably nothing, but if it happens a lot then I would find out the cause instead of just trying to treat the symptom.
Sorry for any misspelled words, I'm a tad tired. :)
some things you could try for help with insomnia
valerian tincture you can order it at www.baldwins.co.uk/
a mugwort/lavender pillow ( baldwins also sells the herbs) to sleep with
warm milk with just a little bit of freshly grated nutmeg
sit with a blue candle and relax and know/feel that you will sleep
warm lavender bath, commercial Kneipp lavender bathsalts works also
the hour before bedtime you should wind down the mind so no pc etc
no electronics in the bedroom and no mobile phone on your nightstand,( you could at least try this )
bowl of salted water under your bed
visualization techniques aimed at sleep, Practical Guide to Creative Visualization Philips & Denning , not specifically for sleep but you can adjust it
read about your book loss due to fire....could be a worry that causes the insomnia....
Lavender essential oil in a diffuser is great for this purpose. Some people also respond well to eucalyptus or menthol scents. Get a diffuser (the type with a tea light candle below and use real essential oils up top in water), and see how that works for you. Combine with relaxing music to aid in getting yourself ready to drift off.
A very common choice is of course melatonin -but before you take these (or any herbals,) check with your doctor to make sure it's okay; and as with any meds, call your pharmacist to make sure there aren't any drug interactions you may have or need to be aware of. (you'll need to tell the pharmacist every medication/herbal that you take currently.) There may also be some homeopathic things that can help with falling asleep- I'd make a call to your local health food store and ask them what they have that might help too.
Now something a bit more simple is this: if it has something to do with someone who makes noises at night and disturbs your sleep I recommend you to go to the hunting/fishing section at a Walmart or wherever and get some of those inner-ear plugs used for shooting/hunting. Then go to the bedding section and get one of those not-shaped/formed (you'll want the regular fluffy type instead) memory-foam pillows. At night, stick the plugs in (which just kind of make the noise seem to be a lower decibel but you can still hear it), then put the fat, fluffy memory-foam pillow over your head & ears. (if you sleep on your side- if not, start trying to fall asleep that way, once you get to sleep, if you shift onto your back, the noise probably won't wake you at that point.)

You could do what I do and try a working meditation (work your body into exhaustion, and focus on your intent, being sleep in this case). As you work your body, you must stay focused on this intent. Ways of working your body include, but are not limited to: jogging in place, practicing martial arts in an open area, push-ups, among other things.
A few things I have done is readjust your bed so that the head of your bed is facing North/feet facing South orientation. Second best is head to South/feet to North, then head to west.. the worst is head facing East. It has to do with the energy and magnetic flow of the Earth. It gets you in sync with the flow.
Make a sleep/bedtime pillow. I would include herbs that have calming, anti-stress and good smelling properties. You can put it on the inside of your pillow case or sow it to the inside of the pillow.
I find that I fall asleep MUCH faster/better if I get in a comfortable position where I can have one of the palms of my hand pressed againgst my forehead/third eye. This is the one that helps me the most by far... it calms my mind ALOT for some reason.
I also take the opportunity to meditate with headphones on playing meditation music or similar music and try to astral travel to talk to beings/energies for advice or ask them to help me sleep.
Have a fan or noise that is consistant that helps you sleep.
A few hours before bed smudge your room with white/ceremony sage.
I think the spell on your bed is a good idea too.
Turn your clock/alarm away from you so you can't look at it all the time.
I keep my room cool... studies show that since your body temp drops when you sleep, a cooler sleeping environment encourages your subconcious to kick your body/mind into sleep mode. I try to stay warmer until about 1/2 hour before its time to go to bed so there is a noticeable temp drop.
Read up on the different herbs that reduces stress, promotes relaxation and induces sleep and made your own custom teas. Write down the recipe for each one as soon as you make it and results the following day stating how well it helped you fall asleep, how you felt when you woke up' how it tasted, any side effects, etc. Soon you will hit on the tea for you. Tweak the tea for best results and taste. This is a multi purpose solution... It creates a subconscious routine to kick your mind/body into sleep mode, Takes your mind off from other things that might keep you up, warms you up just prior to sleep, and it is an activity that puts you in harmony with nature (using herbs). Soon, just preparing your tea will make you drowsy!
Those are some of the things that help me. I have struggled with sleep insomnia for a really long time. I prefer natural methods and herbs but once in a while I take sleeping pills if I have to be sure that I get goof sleep that night. You could try them for a night here and there or try them for a week to get you on the right sleep pattern but don't use them too often or it might make things worse if you try to sleep without them. Only use them as a last resort. OR... you could just read this long, boring reply every night! ;-)
Good luck to ya. Let me know if any of this helps.
