    People who sleep well do not actively try to get to sleep; they get into bed and sleep arrives. So, the main thing is not to try to go to sleep. If you are actively trying, sleep will get further out of reach. Have a regular bedtime and getting-up time, as it trains your body into a rhythm.
    Get ready for sleep 30 minutes or so before bed with a wind-down routine. This can be whatever works for you — for example, taking off your makeup, getting changed and reading. The aim is to find something that helps you switch off from the day. Turn off devices 30 to 60 minutes before bed, partly because there is evidence to suggest the blue light they emit can switch off the natural sleep hormone melatonin, but also to take your mind off social media, the news or work. If you use your phone as an alarm, it may not be practical to keep it out of the bedroom, but avoid using it once you are settling down to sleep.
    If you wake in the night, trust that your natural sleep drive will get you back to sleep at some point. Avoid clock-watching, which can exacerbate anxiety. If you start to feel anxious, get up and do something relaxing elsewhere — read a book or do a mindfulness activity — and then return to bed once you feel sleepy again.

A STUDY OF CAUSES OF STRESS AND STRESS MANAGEMENT AMONG YOUTH

Full article available on PDF − July 2018

    Stress is a condition of mental pressure for particular individuals facing problems from environmental
and social well-being which leads to many diseases. Young age is the critical period because at this
time young people face many changes in their lives. They are expected to be the elites in society.
Thus, they should enhance their stress management abilities so as to live a healthy life after entering
[5] society. When a children enter into the youth age, they need not only to adapt themselves to the new
life and the new environment but also to be familiar with many new people, events, and things. Life
stress on them is considerable. Therefore, understanding the sources of stress among them and the
ways they can cope with it is very important. The researcher found that the stress mainly comes from
academic tests, interpersonal relations, relationship problems, life changes, and career exploration.
[10] Such stress may usually cause psychological, physical, and behavioral problems. This study finds the
causes of stress among youth. So after identifying causes, the researcher suggests that more emphasis
can be given to the development stage of a child into adolescence. Children should be brought up in
a positive environment. More emphasis should be given to outdoor activities and to the creation of a
hospitable learning environment by minimizing the negative impact of stressors. The findings in this
study will help individual students, scholars, lecturers, career and counseling centers.
