Please help with sleep problems

Although I may be blessed by living in a small distant country the challenge of sleep is ubiquitous! I had some sleep problems a few months ago but am a complete believer that our mind is the best doctor. Self-leadership and visualisation are the keys. I changed my routines to ensure that:
I showered in the morning.
I went for a brisk walk each day about 4:00pm (now it is a run!)
I undertook exercises before bed and then had a shower.
In bed I visualised my wonderful years in the country on a ranch almost 60 years prior and the feelings of that location, the next day with my horse, rounding up cattle etc. In my bed I was in that aura.
I began to sleep through the night.
It was this process of self-leadership and visualisation that had previously got me through heart challenges and two major cancers.

robin615, I've never thought of the term "Self-Leadership"! The Best way I have heard it said! I had StageIV colon cancer. They couldn't get it all, so I started chemo. Within 10 days I was given a couple hours to live because of a reaction to 5FU drug. After I was on life support for 14 days I woke up.
That next 365 days I was traveling and working out of my motor home in the Rockies! I was on for all or part of 200 days on a trout stream fly-fishing. The cancer has not come back!
Seven years ago I had another reaction to a drug and fell down 20' of stairs and suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury. Was in a coma for seven days. Not supposed to walk again!
Here I am back again. Self-Leadership and Visualization is what saved me and have saved millions of others!
Thanks for the term!
From The land of Enchantment!
