Sleep Better At Night Get A Good Nights Sleep

Need a good nights sleep try these tips.


Instructions


1. Your mattress is a huge factor in how much sleep you get and the quality of sleep you get. When picking out a mattress, it is best to lay on the mattress for at least 10 minutes to determine if it is comfortable for you or not.If you just lay on it for a couple minutes you do not get a real sense of how the mattress feels. Firm mattresses are best for back sleepers, while slightly softer mattresses are best for side sleepers.


2. Keeping the same routine at night is another factor to sleeping better at night. Exercising too close to bed can get you worked up, therefore inhibiting a good nights sleep. Try not to drink too much before bed so you do not wake up needing to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. Caffeine and alcohol also can affect sleep. Caffeine because it wakes you up. Alcohol may temporarily help you fall asleep, but through the night you will wake up having to go the bathroom, maybe have a headache and not be able to get back to sleep. Watching television in bed is another factor that can keep you from getting a good night sleep. Watching TV stimulates brain activity, therefore, resulting in the bedroom being related to being awake. Use the bedroom just for sleep, then your body knows that when you go lay in bed it is time for sleep not for watching TV or listening to music.


3. Depending on your metabolism it may be a good idea to eat a healthy snack before bed. If you constantly find yourself waking up from hunger, eat a snack before bed. Make sure it is something healthy. Sometimes I think just a bowl of low sugar cereal is plenty, or even drinking a glass of juice or milk.Yogurt and nuts also have some calorie content that are healthy and will help you sleep better.
