Eight sleep hints:
1. Set a consistent sleep schedule. Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, give or take 20 minutes, including weekends.
2. Create a relaxing bedtime/pre-bedtime routine ie: warm bath, reading a book, listening to relaxation apps.
3. Keep your room cool and comfortable. Mattress and pillows should feel really comfy, allowing your body to settle down and relax.
4. Unplug an hour before bed. Screens and sleep are incompatible. Keeping screen use to a minimum, at least an hour before bed, is essential for sound sleep.
5. Stay clear of stimulants late in the day. Avoid beverages and foods that contain caffeine — coffee, non-herbal tea, chocolate etc.
6. Alcohol generally produces poor quality sleep.
7. Food too close to bed time can interfere with sleep.
8. Dim the lights after dark.
