Are you having an affair with insomnia? Are you having difficulty of getting a good night sleep?
And yes, I ask questions like these when I changed my schedule from the night to morning shift. But the adjustment stage was way too long. I did not have a good night sleep for weeks.
How can I have a better sleep at night?
I know that I sleep late - I stay up late just to watch my favorite YouTube videos and my favorite TV Shows. And I am over-doing it. I feel groogy in the morning and it is affecting my work.
There are lots of articles online about getting a better night's sleep that we can follow. And I like what I have read. The article on helpguide suggested 6 precious tips.
I started following it and will continue doing it to go with the routine until I will follow these tips without thinking that I am following such tips.
The Sleep-Wake Cycle The article suggested things to do in order to accept this routine.
Make it a habit to sleep and get up at the same time every day. Doing this will help your body clock to follow the routine. This reminds me of the 21-day habit. Doing a routine repeatedly for 21 days will boost your discipline to follow such routine.
Avoid sleeping in. It is better to have a daytime nap rather than sleeping in.
Be smart about napping and fight drowsiness after dinner. Do something to keep you busy before going to bed early - you may wake up in the wee hours.
Get As Much Sunlight When You CanI understand why the article mentioned this. I can enough sunlight during day and stay on my bed without light so my brain can produce more melatonin. that will make me sleepy.
Stay away from reading on bed. Put off your mobile devices two hours before bed time.
Exercise During the DayYou do need a gym to exercise, walking can be helpful. Walk during the day or afternoon. Don't exercise too close to bedtime, according to the article, this will interfere with sleep.
Watch Your Diet - Be Smart Do not big meals before bedtime. Do not consume caffeinated drinks and avoid smoking. Do not take alcohol and don't take too much fluids before bedtime to avoid getting up to the bathroom - this will interrupt your sleep.
Think Happy Avoid overthinking - stress, anxiety can tremendously affect you. When you think too much at night and during bedtime, your mind is wandering too much.
Improve Your Sleep Improvement This will be your room, keep it peaceful. Keep it dark and quiet. If you are on a night shift and sleeps in the morning, make sure that the room temperature is cold. Use a dark curtains and keep your windows shut during your bedtime.
There are lots of things online that you can read and follow to get a BETTER night sleep.
