It’s not easy to sleep with a tension headache but there are several things you can do to help. Gentle massage your temples and forehead; cover your eyes with a warm cloth; turn off all electronic devices including your phone; listen to soft sounds or sleep meditation sounds; concentrate on your breathing and quiet your mind as much as possible. There are acupressure points on your hands and jaw that you can rub to help relieve the stress headache. Some people find relief using a cervical pillow as well. Try your best to be in the moment, letting go of the past and not worrying about the future or things you can’t control.
