11 years ago I was in the throes of insomnia, scraping by on two or three hours sleep a night tops. I had no clue about sleep hygiene (putting yourself in the best position for a good night’s sleep) and couldn’t tell a bad tip from solid gold.
People talked to me about sleep aids and teas, about magnesium and ancient tricks for falling asleep quickly (“Put your feet in a pan of warm water for two minutes then get straight into bed afterwards – don’t even dry them!”).
