Tips For Great sleep

  • Being active during the day

Notice how kids spend a lot of time running around and how soundly they sleep at the end of the day.

This should be motivation for you to get at least 60 minutes of exercise every day. Physical exercise is good for you because it helps in decreasing stress and making you feel more relaxed.

It is not a good idea to work out too close to your bedtime because it will stimulate your brain and make it hard to sleep.

  • Saying goodnight to electronics

Your bedroom should be used for sleep only. If it is not possible to remove all electronics in your bedroom, then make sure you turn them off an hour before bedtime.

  • Have a sleep routine

You need to try going to bed and waking up at the same time every day so that your body can adjust. Have a bedtime routine to relax your brain and let it know it is time to sleep.

This can be listening to music, reading, writing a journal, spending time with a pet, playing Sudoku, or any activity that is going to relax you.

  • Expecting a good night’s sleep

Stress can contribute to insomnia, so the more you keep worrying about sleep, the harder it is for you to fall asleep.

You should not worry about falling asleep, just remind yourself that you are going to sleep well tonight. You can try gentle yoga poses or breathing exercises before going to bed.
