Consistent Sleep Schedule:
Cultivate a regular bedtime and wake-up routine for a balanced internal clock. A good night’s sleep helps rejuvenate the mind and body.
Digital Detox Before Bed:
Abstain from electronic devices and TV an hour before bedtime, opting for calming activities like reading or meditation.
Serene Sleep Environment:
Invest in quality mattresses and pillows, choose soothing colours, and blackout curtains, and maintain a cool room temperature. A memo from the mattress is pivotal for maintaining good health and posture.
Sleep-Supportive Bedding:
Select a mattress aligned with comfort preferences and spinal alignment. Consider breathable sheets and blankets.
Mindful Nutrition:
Avoid heavy meals, caffeine, and nicotine before bedtime. Stay hydrated during the day, limiting liquids before sleep. Opt for light, sleep-inducing snacks if hungry.
Relaxing Warm Bath:
Indulge in a warm bath or shower before bedtime to induce relaxation and faster sleep onset.
