Tips for a better nights SLEEP:

  1. Regularity- Try to go to sleep at the same time each night, even on a weekend. This will improve your quality and quantity of sleep.
  2. Darkness- An hour before bedtime dim the lights down by half or 70% in your home and keep away from laptops, phones or any screens before bedtime.
  3. Temperature- Keep it cool, have your bedroom at around 18 degrees Celsius. You will have a better sleep if your room is cooler rather than being too warm.
  4. Walk it out- If you find it hard to go to sleep or go back to sleep, get out of bed go to a different room with the lights dimmed down and read a book, do some stretches and do this until you become sleepy again then go back to bed.
  5. Alcohol and Caffeine- Be mindful of your alcohol and caffeine intake especially before bed (A quarter of caffeine stays in your system for 10-12hours)
