Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day. You should change your bedtime so that every day is the same as every other day, even on weekends. The best way to do this is to calculate when you have to get up for work or school, and then work backwards to make sure you get enough sleep. This way you will be able to determine the time to go to bed and the time to wake up. [1]

  • For example, you need to wake up at 6am to get to work by 8am. To get 7-9 hours of sleep at night, you need to schedule a bedtime between 9pm and 11pm.
  • If you need to get used to an earlier bedtime, it’s best to do it every 15-30 minutes. Allow your body to get used to an earlier bedtime before you set it 15-30 minutes earlier the next time. [2]
  • This method will train your brain to know when it’s time to sleep so you don’t have to lie awake in bed.

Avoid sleeping in on the weekends. Sleeping in on the weekends will disturb your sleep routine and make it difficult for you to get the good night’s sleep you need. Try to follow the same bedtime routine on weekends as on weekdays. Over time, this will help you feel healthy and alert. [3]

  • Initially, you can schedule morning activities on the weekends to get motivated to wake up early. For example, plan with a friend or lover to go hiking early in the morning.
  • Don’t plan late-night events on a Friday or Saturday night during the time you’re setting bedtime. After getting used to the sleep routine, you can sometimes sleep for 1-2 hours without worrying about the sleep schedule being disturbed. [4]
  • It may take you a few weeks to establish a bedtime; This depends on your current bedtime and wake-up cycle. Plan to gradually adjust your bedtime every 15-30 minutes. [5]

Make sure you get enough sleep. Sleep time can vary depending on age. Most adults need 7-9 hours a night to sleep, while teenagers need 8-11 hours. Children should sleep 10-13 hours a night.

  • Young children also need daytime naps. For example, 2-year-olds should sleep 1-2 hours, 1-year-olds should sleep up to 4 hours scattered throughout the day. [6]

Take short naps only and keep them to a minimum. Daytime sleep can disrupt your sleep schedule and make it difficult to fall asleep at night. Stay awake during the day, and if you do take a nap, limit your nap to 15-30 minutes. If you don’t, you may end up feeling more tired when you wake up, which can also disrupt your sleep patterns. [7]

  • You should only take a power nap once a day.
  • The best time to take a daytime nap is early afternoon, or 2 hours after lunch. If you have a regular schedule, this is around 2-3pm. Daytime naps at later hours can interfere with nighttime sleep. [8]

Be active after dinner. Feeling a little sleepy after dinner is normal. Maybe you just want to lounge on the sofa watching TV, but it’s best to exercise to recharge your body. That’s because you’ll probably feel energized in the evening after resting while in need of relaxation to sleep. [9]

  • Take a short walk after dinner. You can even invite a friend or take your pet for a walk.
  • Late afternoon is a great time for a walk! This activity can help reduce stress and keep your body’s circadian rhythms in sync.

Don’t stress if you can’t sleep forever. While it’s important to stick to a bedtime routine, you can’t force yourself to fall asleep. Instead of constantly rolling over in bed, get out of bed and do something soothing, like reading a book. When you start to feel drowsy, you can go back to bed and sleep. [10]

  • While it’s a good idea to keep your mind busy, you shouldn’t choose activities that make you more alert, such as playing games on your phone, watching TV, or using the computer.

Create a conducive environment for sleep

Keep the bedroom clean. If the bedroom is not clean, you will not sleep very easily. We all feel comfortable in a clean room, and surely you want to feel comfortable and relaxed when you go to bed, right?

Make the bed comfortable. A comfortable bed can help you fall asleep faster. Get some good pillows, good blankets, and good sheets. If the mattress is old, you should probably consider replacing it with a new one as well. [11]

  • A good blanket is one that you feel comfortable in. Everyone has their own preferences.
  • You may need to change your bedding seasonally. For example, in the winter, you can switch to cotton or jersey sheets and add an extra blanket. You can also buy a duvet to keep warm. [12]
  • In the summer, you can choose a softer bed sheet, such as 250-500 cotton or linen. [13] Replace down comforters with thinner cotton blankets.
  • If your partner, children, or dog take up all the space in your bed, let them all sleep elsewhere. You deserve to have your own space.

Make sure the bedroom is dark. Light can stimulate the brain and keep you awake. Turn off the lights and avoid using night lights. Block any outside light sources with thick curtains or curtains. If you use an alarm clock, turn the clock face away so you don’t face it. [14]

  • Do not turn on the TV while sleeping, because the flickering light from the screen will disrupt your sleep.
  • If you often wake up at night, you can leave the lights dim. [15]

Block out any noise. Loud sounds can make it difficult to sleep. Also, sudden noises can wake you up. The best way to deal with noises is to use a white noise machine, fan, or portable air purifier to create a soothing sounding environment. [16]

  • You can buy a white noise machine that has a variety of sounds for a good night’s sleep, but a fan or portable air purifier is usually cheaper.
  • You can also wear noise-cancelling earplugs.

Maintain a cool temperature in the bedroom. A cool bedroom will help you fall asleep faster, as your body will automatically lower its temperature before bed. The temperature in the room can vary from person to person, so choose a temperature that feels comfortable. [17]

  • In general, the most suitable temperature for sleep is in the range of 16 -20 degrees Celsius . [18]

Stay away from screens 1-2 hours before bed. The screens here include televisions, phones, tablets and other electronic devices. The light emitted by these screens will keep you from falling asleep or staying asleep.

  • If you often read before bed, you should not use an e-reader. [19]

Take a bath or shower with warm water. A warm bath is a great way to start a relaxation routine. It signals the body to cool down to fall asleep faster, which you will also feel more relaxed! [20]

  • Try adding a soothing scent to your bath water, such as lavender.

Read books in soft light. Reading before bed is a great way to relax. Many people find that they feel relaxed reading a book every night. Use a desk lamp or a reading light to maintain a conducive environment for sleep. [24]

  • If you often find it difficult to get out of a book, set a limit on the number of chapters you should read. For example, you could read one chapter a day.
  • Choose a book with light content. If a thrilling book keeps you awake, pick a book with a slow-paced plot.

Meditation . Meditation is an easy way to calm the mind right before bed. Meditating for even 5 minutes can help, but 15-30 minutes of meditation will be more effective. Just close your eyes and focus on your breath, or follow a guided meditation. [27]

  • Try meditation apps like Calm or Headspace.
  • You can find guided meditations online or on iTunes.
  • Close your eyes and focus on your breath. When your mind wanders, direct your thoughts back to your breath.
  • Prayer has the same effect as meditation. [28]

Only for the bed to sleep and “love”. Do not use the bed as a place to work or study, as this will train the brain to think about the lesson or work even when it is time to sleep. Your mind will be more relaxed and sleep will come faster if you train your brain to associate bed with rest. [29]

  • Do homework or other chores in another room. For example, you can use the dining table to work.
  • If you have to work in the bedroom, you should sit at the desk instead of sitting on the bed. Separating the sleeping and working areas can help the brain associate the bed with a state of rest instead of work. [30]

Avoid caffeine in the afternoon. Starting the day with a cup of coffee is a good idea, but caffeine is not a good choice to help you feel more energized in the afternoon. Caffeine will remain in the body for many hours after drinking. When it’s time to sleep, it keeps you awake even though you don’t feel the caffeine is still working. Choose caffeine-free beverages from after lunch. [31]

  • If you want to boost your mood in the afternoon, you can try going for a 15-minute walk to recharge. This is especially helpful if you go for a walk outdoors!
  • Everyone reacts to caffeine differently, so you may need to adjust your caffeine intake to suit your needs.

Do not drink alcohol before bed. Alcohol can cause drowsiness, but it can also disrupt sleep. This means you can easily fall asleep but wake up in the middle of the night. [32]

  • If you drink alcohol, remember to only drink 1-2 drinks in the early evening.
