10
Tips
to
Better
Sleep
We
all
have
too
much
to
do,
so
take
time
out
and
recharge
yourself
by
getting
a
good
night's
sleep.
The
quality
and
quantity
of
your
sleep
can
make
all
the
difference
in
how
productive
you'll
be
the
next
day.
Here
are
ten
tips
to
help
you
get
the
sleep
you
need
and
deserve.
-
Maintain
a
regular
bed
and
wake
time
schedule,
including
weekends.
-
Establish
a
regular,
relaxing
bedtime
routine
such
as
soaking
in a
hot
bath
or
hot
tub
and
then
reading
a
book
or
listening
to
soothing
music.
-
Create
a
sleep-conducive
environment
that
is
dark,
quiet,
comfortable
and
cool.
-
Sleep
on a
comfortable
mattress
and
pillows.
-
Use
your
bedroom
only
for
sleep
and
sex.
It
is
best
to
take
work
materials,
computers
and
televisions
out
of
the
sleeping
environment.
-
Finish
eating
at
least
two
to
three
hours
before
your
regular
bedtime.
-
Exercise
regularly.
It
is
best
to
complete
your
workout
at
least
a
few
hours
before
bedtime.
-
Avoid
nicotine
(e.g.,
cigarettes,
tobacco
products).
Used
close
to
bedtime,
it
can
lead
to
poor
sleep.
-
Avoid
caffeine
(e.g.,
coffee,
tea,
soft
drinks,
chocolate)
close
to
bedtime.
It
can
keep
you
awake.
-
Avoid
alcohol
close
to
bedtime.
It
can
lead
to
disrupted
sleep
later
in
the
night.
