SLEEP HYGIENE TIPS

You're probably familiar with the routine. You try to fall asleep. You toss, turn. Maybe you have a glass of warm milk or a late-night snack. With so many different strategies for getting a good night's sleep, wouldn't it be nice to know what really works? Most people can significantly improve their sleep by improving their “sleep hygiene”.

10 Sleep Hygiene Tips:

1. Stop Eating 2-3 Hours Before Bed

   Minimum 12-hour overnight fast (i.e. 7 pm - 7 am)

2. Make Your Room Pitch Black

   Get blackout curtains if needed

3. Wake Up to Light

   Use a wake-up light, especially in the winter

4. Cool Down

   Keep your bedroom between 65-68 degrees

5. Breathable Sheets & Covers

   Bamboo sheets and hypoallergenic covers are excellent

6. White Noise

   Use a noise machine to eliminate outside noises

7. Electronic-Free Zone

   Shut down all electronics 30 min before bed
