It\u2019s estimated that an average 80 year old man sleeps 25 years, just under one third of his life. There is no satisfying answer to why the human organism needs to disconnect from reality during sleep, but one thing\u2019s for sure: it\u2019s one of the most important stages of our lives, often neglected, and responsable directly for your quality of life. Many people still don\u2019t understand and appreciate the benefits of sleeping and ignore the hazards of losing sleep.<\/p>\n

DO THE SAME SLEEP RITUAL EVERY TIME.<\/h2>\n

There is still much left to understand about the human brain, but scientists pointed out that it prefers working after the same general scheme. Any significant change in the scenario turns into a minor brain alarm that sends out stress signals throughout the body, possibly leading to\u00a0s<\/a>leep difficulty\u00a0. Do the same thing on weekends too.<\/p>\n

GO TO SLEEP AND WAKE UP AT APPROXIMATELY THE SAME TIME<\/h2>\n

Of course, the odds are life will put out obstacles in your way and it won\u2019t allow you to stick to your program\u00a0on some days. The point is not to lose your balance and keep going with your waking hour. Also, when you go to bed, don\u2019t try to force yourself to sleep.<\/p>\n

MAKE THE RIGHT CONDITIONS IN THE BEDROOM.<\/h2>\n

Each of us have our own preferences when it comes to our room. If your a very tidy person having a cluttered room may be keeping you from going to sleep, despite the fact that you may not even realize this. But for most people, having your room clean and tidy\u00a0is not a must. The colour\u00a0\u00a0of your walls does have a big impact on you. While having a bright orange will help your creativity, it won\u2019t be so good when trying to sleep, so you really should use some soothing colours such as a light blue or sage green. Your bedroom should be anything but hot, and it should also be quiet and dark. Your bed and pillow should be very comfortable and large enough for you. Also, according to some recent studies, if you do errands on the bed (such as writing or studying), your brain associates it with something else than rest, and you may have problems going to sleep. The room has to be ventilated properly.<\/p>\n

DON\u2019T IGNORE THE MORNING ROUTINE.<\/h2>\n

DON\u2019T EAT OR DRINK LARGE AMOUNTS BEFORE SLEEPING.<\/h2>\n

GIVE UP UNHEALTHY HABITS.<\/h2>\n

Drinking coffee or soda or alcoholic beverages. ; and \u00a0smoking\u2026<\/p>\n

EXERCISE.<\/h2>\n

Exercising does wonders for you in a whole number of ways, \u00a0have to be careful not to exercise for three hours (some say six hours) before going to bed, otherwise it could mess with your body.<\/p>\n

SHORT NAPS ARE GOOD, LONG ONES ARE NOT.<\/h2>\n

USE PILLS ONLY AS A LAST RESORT.<\/h2>\n

Unfortunately, it\u2019s getting easier and easier to get some sleeping pills, and many people abuse that. If you find it hard to sleep, you first need to think positive, and don\u2019t get the \u2018I have insomnia\u2019 idea in your head, because it will be hard to take out from there. If you can\u2019t sleep for more than half an hour, you become pretty stressed about not being able to sleep so it\u2019s better if you do something relaxing, read or listen to some calm music. Think positive thoughts; you\u2019ve worked for a whole day and still have energy and can\u2019t go to sleep, I\u2019ll just compensate tomorrow and stick to a schedule.<\/p>\n

LET GO OF YOUR STRESS AND WORRIES.<\/h2>\n

I have my own ritual: almost everytime I go to sleep, I ponder of the day that has passed, with the good and the bad, thinking what I could have done differently, understand how I can do better, but I don\u2019t let it affect me.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t stress the issue of proper sleep enough, but hopefully by now, you\u2019re beginning to understand just what a big mistake neglecting it is and the major consequences it can have. Just following these small steps can have a huge benefic impact on you, and they require a minimum of effort, if any at all.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
