Who doesn’t dream of a good sleep? After a hard day’s work, all we deserve is a good snooze to cap up the stressful day and to restore energy for the new day to come. Here are ten tips for a good and relaxing sleep.
1
Use your bedroom only for sleep – no work. Take the computer, television and other work materials out. Make a good sleeping environment.
2
Choose only the pillow, blanket, and bed that you’re most comfortable in.
3
Before your sleep, create a sleep-conducive atmosphere. Making the room dark, quiet, cool and comfortable can help create a good sleeping atmosphere.
4
Develop a soothing bedtime routine. Before sleeping, you may soak into a hot tub, read a book or listen to relaxing music to make you feel sleepy.
5
Always maintain a regular sleeping and waking up schedule even during weekends.
6
Avoid alcohol, cigarettes and caffeine a few hours before bedtime. This can cause several distractions and achieving a sound sleep would not be easy.
7
Exercise regularly. Doing so at least a few hours before bedtime is ideal.
8
Eat your dinner at least 2 to 3 hours before your bedtime.
9
Avoid eating sweets or chocolates close to your bedtime.
10
Keep chips or other finger foods away from your bed. Better yet, keep them out of your bedroom.
