I don't know. Sometimes I fall asleep reading a book while listening to traditional chinese classical music. If insomnia is bad, I take an ambien.
My aqua has a hard time sleeping sometimes. Sorry, but I don't know what he does to fix it.
I do have problems sleeping. When I wake up, my mind is like, what to do today, what next?. Ahh, then it was 3 AM in the morning and I pulled myself back to the bed. 😄
I think what's extra tough for Aquas is the idea of actually going to sleep.
Restless mind in general just don't go to bed, they don't usually have hard time falling asleep when they close their eyes.

Yea like 3 in the morning when that happens.
My Aqua doesn't sleep more than 2-4 hours at a clip, usually not before 5 am, too. Unless he's absolutely physically and mentally exhausted, which happens 3-4 times a year. He'll get 6-8 hours then.
He smokes daily, has for years to calm his mind down. He just stresses and thinks about EVERYTHING.
This is part of why we keep separate bedrooms.
Insomnia has been part of my life longer than i can recall. Reading is one way. it pulls me from my active mind and stops the 'hamsters' is the easiest way to discribe it.
The warm drink is crap, never worked for me. A super hot bath will thou- with lavender.
The worst invention has to be smart phones or phones with internet- i wake up at 2 or 3 am.. grab the phone to browse.. hours later im still awake.
Jogging or any form of exercise for me -- is essential
this one is going to sound crazy but being hydrated during the day, lots of water intake, seems to also help
Swimming does help though. So does a good shoulder or back massage on the bed from my lover. Just enough to relax my mind to where I fall asleep. I do have other factors that affects my sleep such as GERD (Acid Reflux). It doesn't keep me awake but rather wake me up in the middle of the night. Whatever sleep I didn't get at night I often get it throughout the day on the couch. If I have time.
Lavender; I repeat LAVENDER. I'm not an Aqua but I'm air dominant and my mind never stops. I take baths with lavender. I also add rosehip and jojoba oil to my baths to relax. Then I have a lavender mist that I spray on my face and pillow before bed, works wonders. I swear by all of these things.
I used to be a insomniac. I used to work night shifts and sleep during the day. Adjusting yourself to do stuff in the day was tormenting. Plus night always excited me. I be more creative and thoughtful at night. I don't know what it is with night time and creativity. As a sagi I would find the energy or will to starve myself of sleep.
2 benadryls will knock you right out.
The reason I stay up at night is because I do my best thinking when I'm sleep deprived and it's just natural for me,night time is the best and day is just too much to take in so I sleep through most of it, though these days I get up at 10.
When I was young my insomnia was worse so I used to be up all night exercising to wear myself out before sleep but I'd end up going to bed at 4

I heard that Aqua's don't sleep well at night. Due to the constant thought processes. But I wonder what would it for for you to go to sleep?
Physically tiring myself out.
I can't watch a movie, read a book, or do anything. I get too involved so I literally have to get to the point where I'm almost exhausted. In saying that I'm pretty sure I've functioned on 10 hours sleep for the past week... I should be crashing soon 😛
Case of insomnia and on top of that, things that wake you up in the middle of the night. Like heartburn, medical conditions or simply need to piss. I catch up most of my sleep during my alone times.
xanax with melatonin. :/ i cannot sleep for the life of me. then i wake up at least 4 times at night.
