The energy your body replenishes when you sleep at night is crucial to relaxing and repairing muscles, ligaments and even bones. It also works on improving your cognitive connections in your brain to help keep you mind sharp.

If you’re having trouble with going to bed at night, there are a few things you can try that will help you fall asleep faster and longer to reap the benefits of a good night’s sleep.
