World Sleep Day 2024: Improve sleep for a better lifestyle: maintain a consistent schedule, create a relaxing bedtime routine, optimize sleep environment, limit screen time
Aim to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends. This helps regulate your body's internal clock and promotes better sleep quality
Develop a pre-sleep ritual that signals to your body that it's time to wind down. This could include activities like reading a book, taking a warm bath
Make sure your bedroom is conducive to sleep by keeping it cool, dark, and quiet. Invest in a comfortable mattress and pillows, and consider using blackout curtains
The blue light emitted by screens can interfere with your body's natural sleep-wake cycle, making it harder to fall asleep
Avoid heavy meals, caffeine, and alcohol close to bedtime, as these can disrupt sleep. Instead, opt for light, easily digestible snacks if you're hungry before bed
Regular physical activity can help promote better sleep, but try to avoid vigorous exercise too close to bedtime, as it may energize you and make it harder to fall asleep
High levels of anxiety can negatively impact sleep quality. Practice stress-reduction techniques such as mindfulness, journaling
