Hello there!
Let's talk about a common issue we encounter all too often which is having good night sleep most of the time. This often due to a number of factors which might not necessarily have to do with health issues. This situation can be avoided to a greater extent by modifying our lifestyles.
Generall, the following tips would help you improve your night sleep:

  • Turn of the lights. Radiation from electric light or gadgets can occasion you discomfort. Turning off lights enable your brain to rest well.

  • Minimize sleep in day time: As much as possible, save your sleep for night times. But if you must nap in the day, try keeping it minimal - say 20-30 mins.

  • Use the right pillow size just enough to support the curve of your neck. Otherwise you might find yourself tossing all night and might have stiff neck.

  • Use a good mattress devoid of dust, mite droopings, bedbugs, and other similar dirts/microbes. These can really tale a toll on your sleep in addition to causing allergies.

  • Avoid sitting on bed to work, surf, or watch television. Your bed should be for sleep

  • Do your best to retire for bed early and wake up early also at regular times each day/night.

  • Avoid intake of caffeine and tobacco in later parts of the day otherwise you might find yourself tarrying throughout the night.

  • Avoid heavy meals in the night time. These weigh down your digestive system and in essence your body as a whole and can rob you of sound sleep.

  • Avoid drining at least two hours before sleep to reduce your trips to the toilet by night when you should be sleeping.

  • Keep your pets off your bed! They not only cause you inconveneience during sleep time, but are potential carriers of allergies as well.

  • Put off worries and heavy thoughts in the night. There are enough hours in day time to brood over every issue that might bother you.
