Practice sleep hygiene
One of the most crucial reasons behind sleeplessness is the lack of sleep hygiene. Having sleep hygiene means to have a routine around sleeping and maintaining a clean sleep space. This is not an easy habit to cultivate and will require time and effort from your part. Here are some things that will help you develop sleep hygiene:
1. Have a fixed time to go to bed and wake up. If you do this, your body will get used to the routine and naturally adapt to it over time. This is easily one of the best things you can do to fix your sleep.
2. Get at least 6-8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. A continuous, peaceful night’s sleep is essential for recovery- both physical and mental.
3. Maintain a clean sleeping space. Dust out your mattress every night and neatly spread your bedsheet. This makes your bedding more inviting and comfortable to sleep in.
4. Have a pre-sleep routine. This can be personal and according to your comfort. Most people fall asleep faster in a dark room that has been temperature adjusted to your level of comfort. Try bringing in a fragrance that helps you relax into the picture. Listen to calming noises. You can also try meditation to calm yourself down and be eased into sleep.
Daily changes
There are also other changes that you can make in your life to ensure a good sleep cycle.
1. Engage in some form of physical activity every day.
2. Avoid having a heavy meal before dinner.
3. Reduce the consumption of alcohol and avoid tobacco.
Your mattress matters
Most people go through a lot of time in their lives before realizing that the real culprit in their sleeplessness is their mattress. If you are someone who has tried everything mentioned above and are still struggling to sleep every night, it may be time to change your mattress. Your current mattress may be messing with your levels of comfort, not relieving your pressure points or maybe increasing your body temperatures, or all of the above!
