Sleep is definitely one of the most natural and powerful functions the human body has to maintain its own health. If you want to be energetic and perform well the next day, you need plenty of sleep.


When you get enough sleep, you can concentrate, have a good memory, and be creative and motivated. In addition, sleep also plays an important role in maintaining weight because sleep controls our appetite and hormones.



In fact, our short- and long-term health and all performance depends on the quality of sleep. However, with the fast pace of modern life, many people suffer from insomnia, which has a negative impact on the body in the long run.



Here are some sleep tips for you. You can get a good night's sleep by preparing before bed, adjusting your mentality, etc.


1. Create a comfortable environment


"Quiet", "dim", and "cool" are all keywords for sleep aids; you can prepare some good things to help you fall asleep, such as earplugs, noise-cancelling sleep aids, blackout curtains, sleep masks, etc.


2. Soothe your mood and fall asleep


If you want to have a good sleep experience, you can avoid things like looking at your phone, looking at your computer, working on your work before going to bed, and writing a work report before bed. This will drive the body to secrete cortisol (Cortisol) known as the stress hormone (or stress hormone), which will only make you more tense and difficult to fall asleep.


It is recommended that you take a hot bath, read a good book, or stretch your muscles and bones an hour before bedtime to help relax your body and mind, all of which can improve sleep quality.


3. Don’t eat too much before bed


This includes drinks and late night snacks.


It is recommended that you do not drink any liquids one to two hours before going to bed, including water, coffee, alcohol, etc. If you drink too much before going to bed, it is easy to want to pee in the middle of the night. You need to rest your kidneys before bed.


Eating too late will not only make you sleep well, but also seriously affect the secretion of human growth hormone (Human Growth Hormone) and melatonin (Melatonin). In addition, heavy oil and salty foods also make the stomach uncomfortable and affect the quality of sleep.


4. With the help of music


Some soothing light music can help you sleep, you can also use the sleep applet, there are various sleep-aiding sounds, such as white noise, math class, etc. You can also search for audio sleep aids such as hypnotic "Yoga Rest", "528 Hz music", "1/f fluctuation" and "Alpha brain wave music".


If none of these sleep methods help you, you may need a deeper psychological relaxation.



1. Change the way you think


Try changing your way of thinking. Don't always think: You can't sleep tonight, you'll have a bad day tomorrow.


Tell yourself that you are aware of the possibility that a bad night's sleep will adversely affect tomorrow. Then, don't think any more and don't get caught up in it.



2. Accept the fact that you can't sleep


The more people struggle to fall asleep, the more they can't sleep, which is one of the biggest problems with insomnia.


So, accept the fact that you can't sleep in the middle of the night.


Slowly, you will fall asleep.



3. Learn to relax


Not being able to fall asleep definitely feels bad, but learn to relax.


Rather than allow yourself to struggle with a blue mood, it is better to be quiet and relaxed to accept your bad mood.


Turn negative into positive.


If you're going to give an important speech or statement tomorrow, you might get anxious and not sleep well.


Tell yourself that this worry is normal, and simply try to welcome and cherish it rather than try to drive it away.


If there is any discomfort in the body, people may not sleep well; and if there are negative emotions in the heart, it will also affect the quality of sleep. Therefore, if you have any physical problems, please seek medical attention as soon as possible; if you have psychological problems, please consult immediately. Early solutions benefit early. Adjust your mentality, give yourself correct psychological hints, and recommend books such as "The Way to Happiness", "Feeling Love", and "The Miracle of Mindfulness".
