Tips for Good Sleep
You can sleep without pills and still beat insomnia. The following tips will help you to have a better night’s sleep:
- Try to relax before bedtime; take a walk or read a newspaper; just do something which is not stressful.
- Do your paperwork or other work-related activities early in the evening.
- Make sure your bedroom is not noisy. A noisy bedroom is not conducive to good sleep.
- If your bedroom is noisy and you can’t correct it, wear earplugs.
- Think of places you fell asleep easily and try to copy those places; set your room up the same way.
- Don’t use too many or too few blankets.
- Don’t tuck your sheets in too tight at the bottom of the bed; your feet should feel free and unrestricted.
- Have a big enough bed for yourself; if you’re 6’8″, don’t try sleeping in a single bed.
- Your pajamas or nightgown should be comfortable, not too tight.
