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?

    To DJ Khalid this, here’s another one.

    You can purchase wool dryer balls and use a lower setting in your dryer to keep you clothing fibers to reduce the amount of wear.

      Wool dryer balls are great. If you go way down the rabbit hole you start making your own soap. I put together a 5 gallon bucket of powders back in April, it cost less than a month worth of Tide, it takes care of anything short of ink stains all on it’s own, you can use it as all purpose cleaner, and I’m not even halfway through the bucket.
