You didn't sleep all night, your eyes lit like torchlight.

Uncle Dracula, Aunty Vampire. Yes you.

Let's talk about Sleep Hygiene...A thread

The bedroom should be for two things only :

1.sleep

2. Sex
Unlike most vigorous physical activity, sex makes us sleepy.

There's a strong association in people's minds between sleep and the bedroom.

Certain things weaken that association, such as TVs and other electronic gadgets, light, noise, and a bad mattress or bed.

Your bedroom ideally needs to be dark, quiet, tidy and be kept at a temperature of between 18C and 24C.

Fit some thick curtains if you do not have any. If you're disturbed by noise, consider investing in double glazing or, for a cheaper option, use earplugs.

keep regular sleeping hours. This programmes the brain and internal body clock to get used to a set routine.

You Need between 6 and 9 hours of sleep every night.

You stay in bed with Phone, Charger, IPad, Laptop, book and expect to sleep.

It's Bedroom not Cinema. Are You selling equipment?

Put those things aside, go to bed..

Winding down is a critical stage in preparing for bed.

After a long day, you should shower. You are not a witch. Shower. Warm temperature is best.

Slight exercises like Yoga can help too.

Music, mostly hypnotic types can help with sleep too.

Avoid using smartphones, tablets or other electronic devices for an hour or so before you go to bed as the light from the screen on these devices may have a negative effect on sleep.

I hope you get a good night sleep today. Yes You!
