Good Sleep Starts The Moment You Wake Up
How To Improve Your Sleep
Taking small steps in your day goes a long way in helping you improve your sleep at night. Did you know that a good night’s sleep starts with what you do during the day? In fact, from the moment you wake up, you’re affecting your sleep that night. We have outlined some simple ways to help improve your sleep.
Be consistent when you wake, and go to sleep.
Being consistent with your sleep and waking times can aid long-term sleep quality.
Exercise on a regular basis
Exercise is one of the best science-backed ways to improve your sleep and overall health and wellness.
Receive natural light exposure when you wake.
Natural sunlight first thing in the morning helps keep your circadian rhythm healthy. This improves daytime energy, as well as nighttime sleep quality and duration.
Avoid caffeine late in the day
Caffeine can enhance focus, energy, and sports performance. However, when consumed late in the day, caffeine stimulates your nervous system and may stop your body from naturally relaxing at night.
