‘Regular Sleep, Healthy Future.’
We all know a good night's sleep helps start our day off on the right foot, the World Sleep Society recommends the following 10 steps to achieve healthy sleep:
Fix a bedtime and an awakening time.
If you are in the habit of taking a nap, do not exceed 45 minutes of daytime sleep.
Avoid excessive alcohol ingestion 4 hours before bedtime and do not smoke.
Avoid caffeine 6 hours before bedtime. This includes coffee, tea and many sodas, as well as chocolate.
Avoid heavy, spicy, or sugary foods 4 hours before bedtime. A light snack before bed is acceptable.
Exercise regularly, but not right before bed.
Use comfortable bedding.
Find a comfortable temperature setting for sleeping and keep the room well ventilated.
Block out all distracting noise and eliminate as much light as possible.
Reserve the bed for sleep and sex. Don’t use the bed as an office, workroom or recreation room.
So get comfortable and enjoy your snoozing!
