Do you have trouble sleeping? Not being able to sleep is called insomnia. According to the United States National Sleep Foundation, here are some tips for a good night's sleep:
Go to bed about the same time each night, even on weekends. This helps to "set" your body's "sleep clock."
Exercise every day.
Have a calm, relaxing bedtime routine – Take a warm bath or drink a hot cup of tea.
Try not to take long naps during the day. Periods of sleep during the daytime can interfere with sleep at night.
Make sure you have a pleasant environment where you sleep. For most people, a cool, quiet and dark room is best for sleeping.
Avoid using television, computers and other electronic screens before bedtime.
Also avoid alcohol, cigarettes and heavy meals before bedtime.
