Everyone, sometime or the other, would have felt the negative impact of the daily grind on their sleep, but here are some mantras that will let you effectively fall asleep.

Is the daily grind affecting your sleep? Scriptures say that day time belongs to the devas and the night times to the asuras and ghosts. Equally prevalent is the belief that getting up instinctively at 3 or 3.30 pm indicates that there is some guardian angel up there that is guarding you and it is a time when gods will be moving around everywhere.

Any spiritual activity done at this time succeeds very well. People who are habituated to getting up at 3 am are believed to possess spiritual aura or strength and have gods' protection on them.

Night time otherwise, is exactly when you also get nightmares. A great influx of negative energies at night can attack a sleeping person. You must have heard and experienced this.

Before sleep tell yourself that you are going to get up at 5.30 etc.. certainly, you will wake up at 5.30 instinctively probably due to a subconscious act that stores it in your memory.

Similarly chanting of mantras just before sleeping, is an invitation for good energies to take care of you during sleep and hence whenever you have chanted Hanuman mantra on one day, you must have noticed that your nightmares haven't bothered you throughout.

Good energies also protect you during the night if you offer your prayers to them before going to sleep. There is yet another belief that getting up at 3 exactly and then looking at the night sky from your window, and telling your desires to the universe, your prayers will actually be answered. Let us go through the list of mantras that induce sleep.
