I have a lot of trouble sleeping -- falling asleep initially and staying asleep through the night are both issues for me. Someone suggested a sound machine for background noise but I already run fans for that. Another person suggested music. Do you sleep to music? Do you find it helps you sleep better?
I too have to sleep with some kind of white noise, so I usually use a fan for this, but sometimes listening to classical music helps me fall asleep faster. It's very relaxing.
It helps me sleep better because it helps dictate the direction my dreams go. Or at least that's the way it seems. I first noticed this when I had this song on a cd shuffle many years ago:
I have had trouble sleeping before and it is not a good experience at all. Nowadays I am good and I now see how applicable this conversation would have been then.
I sleep to personal development programs like Esther Hicks' workshops or Bob Proctor's programs. My favorite is the Born Rich program. I could listen to that over and over for years to come.
I don't sleep to music every night but when I can't sleep I turn my radio on or listen to a white noise app on my phone. It usually helps. I normally drink a sleepy time blend of tea in conjunction.

I don't sleep to music every night, but at least five days out of the week. Depending on what genre it is on, it usually does make me relax to fall asleep. Anything acoustic or acapella definitely gets the job done.
Not always, but I do try some music when I can't fall asleep. Other times I can't sleep with it because the lyrics somehow bother my thoughts. I end up intently listening that I can't fall asleep.

No music, no tv. I can't let the sandman take me away with human voices and music going. I can't disassociate from it. Maybe though I should try the music of Pink Floyd to lull me for an insomnia event. I've always considered their music as sedative rock.
