Sleep hygiene means practicing healthy habits that can help you sleep well. Here are some tips for good sleep hygiene.

Sleep hygiene tips:

• Get up and go to bed at the same time every day—even on weekends.
• Do things that calm you before going to bed (e.g., have a warm bath, read a relaxing book, drink a glass of warm milk).
• Avoid watching exciting movies or listening to loud music before going to bed.
• Don’t eat a heavy meal before bed. If you feel hungry, have a light snack.
• Go to bed when you feel sleepy.
• Keep your bedroom dark and quiet. Try using blackout curtains, blinds and/or earplugs.
• Keep your bedroom at a comfortable temperature for sleep, between 22°C (72 °F) and 16 °C (60 °F).
• Try not to nap during the day. If you need a nap, keep it to less than 20 minutes. Napping earlier in the day (before noon) is better than later in the day.
• Use your bed only for sleep and sex.
