Tips for Better Sleep

About | Contact Us | FAQ | Teacher’s Room

Good sleep habits (sometimes referred to as “sleep hygiene”) can help you get a good night’s sleep. Here are some habits that can improve your sleep health.

Be consistent. Go to bed at the same time each night and get up at the same time each morning, including on the weekends.
Get comfortable. Make sure your bedroom is quiet, dark, relaxing, and at a comfortable temperature.
Remove distractions. Remove electronic devices, such as TVs, computers, and smart phones, from the room.
What to avoid? Try not to have large meals, caffeine, and alcohol before bedtime.
Get some exercise. Being physically active during the day can help you fall asleep more easily at night.
