Uninterrupted natural sleep can go a long way by increasing overall productivity throughout the day. For a seamless snooze, coffee won’t fix a broken sleep schedule.
Irregular sleeping could be caused by a variety of reasons ranging from your caffeine intake to surplus hours of scrolling on social media apps.
With technology disrupting our sleep patterns, it’s important to switch-off completely. By hitting the snooze button and having an average of 7 hours of sleep per night, other areas of our life fall into place ranging from our weight, emotional wellbeing, blood pressure, diabetes, mental and physical performance and more.
Improving sleep quality involves a combination of lifestyle changes, creating a conducive sleep environment, and establishing healthy sleep habits.
Here are some tips that can help you snooze better.
Establish a Consistent Sleep Schedule
Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends. It’s important to maintain a consistent sleep routine to help regulate your body’s internal clock.
Create a Relaxing Bedtime Routine
Wind down before bed with relaxing activities such as reading, taking a warm bath, or practicing meditation.Avoid screens (phones, tablets, computers, TV) at least an hour before bed, as the blue light can interfere with melatonin production.
Optimize Your Sleep Environment
Make your bedroom dark, quiet, and cool. Use blackout curtains or a sleep mask to block out light. Use earplugs or a white noise machine to drown out noise. Keep the room at a comfortable, cool temperature (around 65°F or 18°C is ideal).
Be Physically Active
Regular physical activity can help you fall asleep faster and enjoy deeper sleep. Avoid vigorous exercise close to bedtime, which might be stimulating.
