I’m looking for sleeping tricks and thought some other people here might have similar issues or good tricks. Can be anything from getting the motivation to go to sleep to actually tricks to falling asleep.
My current trickbook is basically this:
Podcasts, but it has to be in some goldilocks zone of interesting to enough to keep attention but not too good so it gets exciting.
I’ve also done meditation in bed when falling asleep that tends to work.
Consistent routine is good. Shower, brush teeth, lights off, episode, sleep.
I’m curious to see what other autistic people are working with here.
TIL this is called cognitive shuffle, it seems there a few studies on its effect on late onset insomnia, but no conclusive evidence on its efficacy. I am wondering if a more targeted study would provide better results (aka only on monotropic people)?
