Sleep quality is very important to maintain a healthy and balanced life. Everybody knows the dreadful feeling after a short or interrupted night. Long term low sleep quality can even be more harmful. There are many factors affecting your sleep quality. Do you think your sleep quality can use some improvement? Time to take measures into your own hands and see what can benefit you!

Pre-bed preparations

Before going to sleep, you can make some small changes to your daily routine for a better quality of sleep.

• Be consequent: Go to bed at the same time every day and try to get 7-9 hours of sleep.
• Alcohol and caffeine have a negative effect on sleep quality; try to avoid those a few hours before bedtime.
• Don’t use devices that radiate a lot of light, such as televisions, phones, or computers. Instead, read a book or go for a relaxed walk.
• Stay active during the day to ensure your body and mind want to recharge at the end of the day.

Optimize your bedroom

Besides changing your routine, you can also optimize the conditions in your bedroom for a good night’s sleep.

• Your body needs to cool down when you’re asleep; a cool room helps this process. The most ideal room temperature is around 18 degrees Celsius. Try to cool your room before you go to sleep.
• Keep noise out. Choose the most silent room in the house or try to isolate your bedroom from noises. Remove ticking clocks and, if necessary, use earplugs.
• Darken your room. We sleep better in darkness, which improves sleep quality significantly. The perfect solution for a dark bedroom is using blackout window coverings.
