* switch on the light
* pray hard and read bible ......most effective
* make sure you do not read or watch any ghost stories.........otherwise, u know what will happen in your mind!!
For every business trips, I will bring along a bible and I will place the bible by my side (usually next to the pillow) when I go to sleep. That's my usual practice. Not sure it works or not, but at least I feel calm and has to sense that God is with me.
I also need to go to business trip very often. However, just remember God is with you and be strong!! Sometimes, if I am afraid, I will sing the Christian song. Hope that it will help.
