Most of the people that have TV on their rooms like to turn the TV on when they are in bed like you say I'm going to sleep and you lay down turn on the TV watching a movie and you fall in sleep in the middle of it... then the television stay all night turned on for nothing just wasting power... I mean why do we do that?
Do you do it?

Hi, krux!
Well, I sort of do this. The TV in the bedroom has a timer, so I set it to turn itself off. If it were on all night, I'd be ashamed of my treatment of the environment and my electric bill!

No I don't because I don't like to waste energy. I do get into bed and watch a little bit of TV. When I realize I'm really tired and the show is not interesting enough for me to stay awake I just shut the TV.

I tried having a tv in my bedroom before but It just felt all wrong. i mean I go to my room to relax and be comfortable and all the noise from TV is too distracting and I think a person should have piece of mind before sleep. Your brain is working through all those symbols your bombarded with throughout the day and making sense putting to use what it finds useful, so for god sakes give your brain a fighting chance. I actually like to read before bed because I can still do it in silence and it actually brings attention to all that dialogue going on in my mind, I think you become aware of how your brain is working because if you sit in silence you begin to remember things that happened in the day that stuck in your mind and you begin to think more about it and why your brain stored it to memory, at least thats how I think anyway. Another useful thing before sleeping for me is writing, that works the best for me actually.

I see your knowledge about the brain are near mine :D
And I really enjoy that.
I myself I prefer to meditate a little before sleeping in silence I can remember everything I did on that day and I can even imagine what will happen tomorrow!
Try to do that meditate a little before sleeping than you can read or write you will see that your mind is totally opened to the book you are wrting or there will be just so many ideas falling into the paper you are writing :D
Be happy try that!

For some people it helps them relax and they sleep easier and better! Other's it makes them stay awake 'cause they don't want to sleep!
Personally i dont do it. It makes me have a bad sleep and i fall asleep without turning the tv off, witch spends a lot of energy ( i like to save energy)
