In the UK we have a fantastic service called Radio 4 which has remarkable sleep-inducing powers. Much better than any narcotic sleep aid, in my experience.
Podcasts also work well, in my experience.
- praveer13 8y agoI've found podcasts to be incredible tools to induce sleep. It's very difficult to stay awake for me while listening to any podcast or audiobook. I really don't know how people do it.
- henriquemaia 8y agoI have to be engaged in something physical* to listen to podcasts/audiobooks. If I just try to listen, I inevitably fall asleep. *I usually listen to audiobooks while I ride my bicycle to college.
- hanley 8y agoThe Sleep With Me podcast has been incredibly helpful for falling asleep during times when I'm stressed or otherwise can't sleep. It's the right amount of goofy and rambling that just lulls me to sleep. https://www.sleepwithmepodcast.com/ https://www.sleepwithmepodcast.com/
- kokey 8y agoI'm not sure about that, it tends to be more interesting than anything else around. Well, except for The Archers, Thought of the Day or when they have a bunch of people talking about an artist or poet from over a century ago.
- gms7777 8y agoI like podcasts a lot for this purpose. My mind tends to race a lot when I get in bed and it would take me at least an hour to fall asleep usually. Podcasts my brain just that little bit of focus and engagement that I need to drift off. I usually set a sleep timer and drift off. The thing that I haven't found a solution for yet though with it is needing to use my phone right before I fall asleep. I inevitably fall into the trap of checking email or looking up something.
