HOW TO SLEEP BETTER AT NIGHT
🌙 HOW TO SLEEP BETTER AT NIGHT
1️⃣ Go to Bed at the Same Time Every Night
Your body has an internal clock.
Sleeping at the same time makes it easier to fall asleep quickly.
2️⃣ Avoid Screens 30 Minutes Before Bed
Mobile, laptop, and TV give off blue light that keeps your brain awake.
Try reading, stretching, or listening to calming audio instead.
3️⃣ Create a Calm Sleeping Environment
-
Keep your room cool
-
Dim the lights
-
Reduce noise
-
Use a comfortable pillow and clean bedding
Your brain sleeps better in a relaxing space.
4️⃣ Avoid Heavy Meals Before Bed
Eat dinner 2–3 hours before sleeping.
Avoid:
-
Spicy food
-
Very oily food
-
Excess sugar
These can disturb sleep.
5️⃣ Limit Caffeine in the Evening
Avoid tea, coffee, and energy drinks after 5 PM.
They stay in your body for hours and keep you awake.
6️⃣ Do a Short Relaxation Routine
Try one:
-
Slow breathing (inhale 4 sec → exhale 6 sec)
-
Light stretching
-
Warm shower
-
Listening to soft music or nature sounds
This signals your brain to relax.
7️⃣ Keep Your Phone Away From Your Bed
Scrolling keeps your mind active.
Place the phone across the room or on silent mode.
8️⃣ Write Down Your Thoughts
If your mind is full, write:
-
What happened today
-
What you need to do tomorrow
This reduces overthinking at bedtime.
9️⃣ Get Sunlight During the Day
10–15 minutes of sunlight in the morning helps set your sleep cycle.
🔟 Avoid Long Daytime Naps
If you need a nap, keep it under 20–30 minutes.
🌟 Perfect Night Routine (Example)
| Time | Activity |
|---|---|
| 9:30 PM | Light snack or warm water |
| 9:40 PM | Shower or light stretching |
| 9:50 PM | Put away phone |
| 10:00 PM | Read / deep breathing |
| 10:15 PM | Lights off, sleep |
💬 If you still struggle to sleep
Try to notice:
-
Are you stressed?
-
Are you using your phone late?
-
Are you drinking caffeine at night?
Fixing these usually helps a lot.
