Sleeping and Flying
0 Comments Published by Lilian May 27th, 2007 in How to sleep better, Sleep Disorders.
Some people have trouble sleeping during long flights, and that is understandable. There are plenty of people who have issues with flying, much less getting sleep while inside the plane. And the thing is getting no sleep on an 18-hour flight, for instance, will leave you feeling lethargic and weary, even while you have just been sitting there the whole time. It affects you once you are off the plane and back to the ground, to your routine. That’s what jet lag is.
There are some practical ways to help you make sleeping above thousands of feet easy. For instance, you can avoid caffeinated drinks and also alcohol before you board your flight. Alcohol, in particular, has an adverse effect to you body while you are cramped inside the plane. Instead, just drink water. Lots and lots of it.
If you have to be careful with what you drink, then you also need to watch what you eat. Try bananas. They contain melatonin, which is a muscle relaxant. There’s a reason why they serve peanuts on flights. It’s packed with high-fiber to help your body relax. If you are a meat-eater, some meats may contain tryptophan which actually causes people to take naps after dinner.
The clothes and shoes you wear during travel may also be the reason why you are not getting the sleep you need. You could fuss and fidget over it, while you are at our seat so wear something comfortable, then.
You can also try music — soft and relaxing music. It helps your body adjust through the long flight.
Lastly, if you have planned the trip ahead of time, get the best seating reservation to get that peace and quiet you need for the next 18-hours or so.

These in turn are able to aid a person into being able to sleep soundly especially in cases where they have difficulty in sleeping. Sleeping difficulties would usually stem from thinking too much or worrying about things that may be unfinished. However, people can find alternative means and listening to music is something that is good to resort to.

Soft music in the form of composed classical music, piano, violins, guitars is good relaxing music for people. Soft rock and romantic music can also be used as lullabies to help make a person sleep soundly. Many may consider them boring but boredom is something that will surely make a person resort to considering naps or even sleep as a recourse towards recharging their mental and physical attributes as needed.
