Expert Suggests 7 Ways to Get a Good Night’s Sleep
An expert has suggested seven simple ways to get a good night’s sleep.
Set an electronic curfew: Keep technology out of your bed, and turn off all devices at least an hour before bedtime, Michael Breus, Ph.D. said.
Breus says he calls this technique a worry journal and note that it is very effective.
Set an alarm at night: Setting an alarm to remind you when to go to bed is very helpful, said Dr. Breus.
Leave work at the office: Set a time in the evening to power off-and leave your email for the next morning, Dr. Breus advices.
It may also boost productivity at work, he added.
Exercise earlier in the day: Those who exercise early in the day rather than at night may enjoy the best quality sleep-and find it easier to shift their bedtime and waking times earlier, Dr. Breus asserted.
Start a routine: Setting up a routine and sticking to it every night will train your body to anticipate sleep at that time, he suggested.
Go to bed when you’re tired: Do not push yourself to stay up later when the body feels tired. This might result in a temporary energy boost, but you won’t feel so good the next day, Dr. Breus stated.
