in the direction North.
• Get up the same time every morning and go to bed at the same time.
Tips to be followed every night for a week:
• Visualize yourself in a peaceful place, such as a field full of wildflowers with a gentle breeze blowing, or near a gently flowing stream where you can see fish swimming past you.
• Visualize a boring scenario, such as a lecture you have no interest in.
• Read out loud the names and numbers from the phone book.
• Reserve your bedroom and the bed as a place for sleep only.
• Wiggle your toes gently until you fall asleep.
• Rub your stomach lightly.
