Do you have any particular routine or regimen that you do before going to sleep at night? Me, the usual routine will be checking the doors and the windows if they are locked, putting off the light, saying the night prayer with my kid then off we go to dreamland. However, during times when I still don't feel sleepy at all, I read a good book till my eyes are heavy and ready to sleep.

Usually, I still surf the internet, checking for some updates ,emails and news on some blogs. Then I listen to some songs for relaxing, after this, I read some pages of a book till twelve oclock, and go to bed on time. As a student, it`s necessary for me to do everything routinely, a small habit could has a big effect on my next doings. Sleep and wake up on time, I can feel my body is full of energy on doing everything. What about you?

I do pretty much the same thing. Except that I don't have kids. I check the door to make sure it's locked. Then, I turn off the lights in the living room. Then, I go to my room and turn on the light on the table beside my bed. I get into bed and read for at least 10 minutes, sometimes a couple hours. Then, I turn off my light and go to sleep.

My nightly routine is taking my shower, putting on facial creams, combing my hair, preparing the bed and say my prayer. But the very last thing i do while before really closing my eyes is to think and summarize all that i have done during the day. By making this mental checklist, I am aware and ready of what to do the following day.
