Getting Enough Quality Sleep Is a Game-Changer!
Did you know that more than 35% of adults get less than 7 hours of sleep per night? The good news is, improving your sleep hygiene can transform your nights—and your days! Here are a few tips to help you get back on track for restful nights:
- Unplug: Avoid screens at least an hour before bed to let your brain wind down.
- Stick to a Schedule: Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day to set your body’s internal clock.
- Create a Cozy Sleep Space: Aim for a dark, cool, and quiet environment.
- Get Moving: Exercise earlier in the day to promote sound sleep at night.
- Relax Before Bed: Develop a bedtime ritual you love, such as reading, meditating, or sipping herbal tea.
- Soak Up Some Sunlight: Exposure to natural light during the day helps regulate your sleep-wake cycle.
- Limit Caffeine: Avoid caffeine after noon to ensure it doesn’t interfere with your rest.
- Consider Natural Sleep Aids: Supplements like melatonin, valerian root, or lemon balm can provide extra support.
