Here are some simple steps on how to sleep well, from your bed to your diet, our aim is to help you sleep better at night.
Step1: Food and drink
Avoid coffee, tea, coca and cola drinks late in the evening as they all have caffeine. They may keep you awake. Don’t eat too much for your dinner, because your body will have to stay awake half the night digesting(消化) your meal, so you won’t feel rested in the morning. Milk, turkey and peanuts all have chemicals that help the brain relax. So have a turkey and peanut butter sandwich is a good choice.
Step2: Another thing that affects your sleep is the position you sleep in. we all have our preferences, but for a perfect night’s sleep you should try to keep your body in a proper position, where both your head and neck are kept straight. All you need is a comfortable bed and some well placed pillows.
Step:3 Your bedroom should be a place for sleeping only. It is not a good idea to use your bed for doing work, making phone calls etc. Help your body recognize that this is a place for rest by throwing away anything work related before you go to bed.Keep your bedroom dark while you are sleeping. As soon as it’s time to wake up , open the curtains or turn a light on. Lights helps your body know it’s time to wake up.
Step4: Have a bedtime routine ( 常规). Having a bath before bed will help your brain relaxed and prepare you for sleep. Reading a book or listening to the same piece of music every night may help too. Write down your worries and possible solutions before you go to bed, then stop thinking about them.

Have you ever been having a great day when suddenly a past mistake comes into your head? Here are some ideas on forgetting your past mistakes and moving forward in life.
You should let the mistakes in the past go away. You are not defined (界定) by your past mistakes. A mistake is just something that has happened in your life. And mistakes are only a small part of your life. You made mistakes because you thought something was the best for you. However, now you know clearly that it wasn’t the best.
Work out why you keep making the same mistake. It is important for you to learn why you keep making the same mistake. There are many ways to do this. For example, you can try to find out the cause(原因) of this mistake in order to learn more about it. To look into something deeply is very important.
See what you have learned from the experience. After you have learned why you made the mistake, you should think about what you have learned from it. Maybe you recognize that you should have listened to your heart. Or maybe you need to forgive(原谅) yourself for a mistake that you made a few days ago.
