Do you sleep restfully every night? Do you wake up fresh and energetic and ready to take on the world? If you do, you are among the rare lucky ones because a large population worldwide has trouble sleeping. Most people experience fitful and restless sleep.
Fortunately, there are several ways to improve your sleep and sleep tight every night. Here are some that you can try:
It doesn’t matter how large or small your room is; you can always make it magical with a few changes. First things first, make sure your room is clean and clutter-free. Studies have found that clutter often leads to stress and can be detrimental to the sleep cycle.
Next, make sure it is dark and relatively quiet. Some find sound machines, which provide a soft white noise to help rather than silence. As for light, sleep-masks that cover your eyes can help with that. Having a bedroom at the optimal sleep temperature is also beneficial. As this is different for everyone, it is best to experiment with fans, windows, air conditioners, or a heater to help find the perfect temperature for you.
Light from your computer, cellphone, or television is the biggest adversary of a good night’s sleep. Avoid their usage at least one hour before bed. If you must work or stay on the phone late, reduce the brightness and chose the nighttime option and use smaller screens when possible.
Light suppresses melatonin, the hormone that helps us sleep. If you are used to reading books before sleep, you can try audiobooks or the good old paperbacks. Just make sure it’s a book that you can put down, or you’ll be up all night finishing it!
Sleeping and waking up on time can help you sleep peacefully and restfully. When you switch your bed time or wake up schedule frequently, your body cannot get accustomed to it, and you feel sleepy during the day but energetic during the night. Even when you are on vacation or enjoying the weekend, stay on schedule.
Many drinks will help you enjoy a very restful night. Try warm milk, almond milk, decaffeinated green tea, lemongrass tea, or chamomile tea, banana smoothies, coconut water, etc., to enjoy amazing sleep every night. Just also be aware that drinking too much liquid before bed can lead to frequently visits to the bathroom.
Your mattress, sheets, and blankets make a tremendous impact on your sleep. Choose quality materials and brands to make your bed as comfortable as possible.
