Tips for Getting Better Sleep
Most adults would agree that they don’t feel like they get enough sleep and that’s because they probably don’t. Sleep is very important for the brain and for recovery so it’s necessary to start practicing how to sleep now. Lack of sleep can also cause lack of judgement. When you’re tired, you don’t think clearly.
So here are some tips to getting a better night’s sleep.
- Wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends.
- Limit daytime sleeping (one 20 min nap is okay but no more than that)
- Set a bedtime that allows 7-9 hours of sleep
- Eat your last meal at least three hours before bed
- Turn off all screens, (phones, laptops, tv, etc.) one hour before bed
- Read, meditate, pray, listen to music, etc. to fall asleep
If you have trouble falling asleep, don’t give in or give up. Give it a couple of weeks for your body to get used to the change in routine. If you continue to have trouble falling asleep, you can try taking some melatonin or other natural sleep remedies. Stay away from sleep aides unless absolutely necessary.
If you have trouble staying asleep or suffer from insomnia, don’t lay in bed trying to fight it. If you are awake longer than one hour, get up, get a drink, do something calm. Do not watch TV or look at a screen. You could try reading or journaling for about 30 minutes and then try to sleep again. This trick really can be helpful.
If you suffer from chronic insomnia and none of these tips work for you, you should make an appointment with your doctor.
