When I can’t sleep, I turn around and sleep “upside down” - moving my pillows to where my feet were beforehand, and my feet to where my head was beforehand - and I stick with that for a week or so. It gives me a week or so without insomnia and then wears off, so I have to turn myself back around for the next 7-12 day period.

Admittedly this could just be a me thing, but let’s put our faith in this method and let the power of placebo effect take hold. Boom, minor bouts of sleeplessness are cured.

What are your own examples of this?

    you can avoid sneezing and convert it into a cough by opening your mouth and forfully coughing, better than having snot fly all over.

      You can just press your finger firmly on your philtrum (the little valley between your nose and lips). Pressure on the nerve that runs there immediately stops the urge to sneeze.
