Study says, one in five adults suffers from an insufficient amount of sleep. Insomnia affects adolescents, adults and the elderly. As we age, we will have more trouble in our sleep cycle. Hence, It is very important to develop good sleep habits when you’re younger.
Here are a few tips to deal with insomnia
Going to bed and getting up at roughly the same time every day will programme your body to sleep better.
Avoid afternoon naps, it can make falling asleep at night even harder. Extra sleep on weekends can also throw off your regular sleep schedule and worsen midweek insomnia.
Smart phones, e-readers, tablets, computer screens, TVs, and digital clocks emit blue light, a short frequency of light that may be harmful to the eyes and disrupt sleep. Minimize screen time for several hours before bedtime to get a good night’s rest
Eat light meals in the evening. Eating heavily in the evening or eating just prior to going to bed can disrupt your sleep.
Cut down on caffeine in tea, coffee, energy drinks or colas, especially in the evening. Caffeine interferes with the process of falling asleep, and also prevents deep sleep.
