Power Down Digital Devices
Late night blue light exposure can affect our sleep. It’s
important we put away phones and tablets and turn of TVs and computers about
one hour before going to bed.
Â
Cover Your Clock
Looking at the clock when we wake up during the night can
halt our sleep or cause our mind to race. We can put our clock face down or
turn it away from our view during the night.
Â
Avoid Items that Contain Caffeine
Caffeine is okay in the morning, but after lunchtime, we
should avoid food and drinks that contain caffeine. Check labels for unexpected
caffeine.
Â
Eat Healthy at Night
Stop eating at least one hour before going to bed and avoid
large meals late, as they can affect our sleep quality. Have a small, healthy
snack instead.
Â
Relax Your Mind
Release your brain from work or aggravating situations at
least three hours before going to bed. Try a relaxation technique prior to bed
like meditating or taking a bath.
