We always talk about sleep being important for your mental and physical wellbeing, but truly it is. If you didn’t eat for a week, then your body would suffer. If you don't get enough sleep your brain suffers too.
Getting enough sleep can help you to:
- Recharge
- Process information
- Allow your body to rest and repair
- Feel happier
- Think more clearly
- Concentrate better
- Provide you with the energy to complete tasks, and
- Make you more alert
Ways to help getting to sleep:
- Put your devices to bed at least 30 minutes before you go
- Make sure you get some exercise during the day
- Start and stick to a regular routine for bedtime and waking up
- Practice quiet and soothing activities before bed
- Avoid napping
- Create the perfect sleeping environment
- Stay away from dietary stimulants like sugar, coffee, coke, tea a few hours before you need to go to sleep
Find out more informationabout why you need great sleep.
