Better Sleep
1) Drinking Coffee Or Tea
Coffee and tea contain caffeine, a stimulant. Consuming it before bedtime could prevent you from falling asleep quickly and may disturb its quality as well as cause frequent awakenings during the night. Furthermore, caffeine dehydration could further impede restful rest. Therefore, if you are a coffee or tea drinker it would be best to limit its consumption in the evening to decaffeinated drinks, or wait 2-3 hours prior to sleeping before resuming regular consumption of these stimulants.
2) Staring Into The Mobile Or Laptop Screens
Staring into any screen for extended periods can stimulate mental activity and make it hard to relax before bedtime, potentially increasing stress and anxiety levels. Therefore, it is advisable to minimize screen usage before sleeping; try reading a book or engaging in relaxation techniques such as guided visualization. You could even use an app for this.
3) Smoking
Smoking has an addictive and stimulating effect on the body that may make sleeping difficult, but you could try switching up your relaxation technique such as listening to soothing music while trying to sleep.
4) Eating Fatty Food
Consuming fatty food right before bed can lead to discomfort in your digestive system and lead to indigestion. For a light night-time snack, such as oatmeal or yogurt, try having one instead; or sip some water first thing to quench thirst and prevent any potential discomfort that may accompany eating heavy, greasy food before going to sleep.
