How to Catch the Best Night’s Sleep

There are many reasons why people cannot get themselves into a regular sleep schedule and struggle to experience the best nights sleep. Distractions are frequently the main reason why many people can’t get to sleep and continue soundly throughout the entire night.

Introducing a new sleep regiment to anyone’s hectic life can seem impossible at times. Sleep even works perfectly as a stress reducer. However, there are many resources and things people can do in moderation to help themselves find a balance, and finally, have the best nights sleep possible.

De-clutter the Bedroom:

Believe it or not, humans are naturally very materialistic. We accumulate a lot of unnecessary things in our life. We end up creating piles within our homes because of a lack of organization, and many of these piles can end up in our bedrooms creating unneeded clutter. These piles aren’t good to look at right before bed. Like it or not, we add to these piles throughout the week. For example, everyone has their notorious ‘chair’ that ends up collecting outfits, folded clothes and misplaced miscellaneous.

Then, when it comes to the weekend, we end up spending half a day organizing the pile into more appropriate places. Putting things away immediately will help set the tone to avoid unnecessary‘ piles’.

It is great to do a monthly cleanse and ensure everything has a place so it is not piling up in a room. Children aren’t the only ones who need healthy nighttime routines. Adults have horrible sleep habits and find any excuse to stay up for another hour. Adults need to be disciplined and create healthy sleep habits to ensure they can feel well-rested when they get up in the morning and know they’ve had the best nights sleep possible.

Un-Plug:

On any given day we are exposed to many advertisements, commercials, and social media feeds. It’s crucial to take the time to recharge ourselves and take a break from overstimulating our senses. According to Forbes, the average American is exposed to anywhere from 4,000 to 10,000 ads in a single day. This is emotionally exhausting to try and comprehend; however, we experience these advertisements daily. With this alarming statistic, it is in our best interest to de-clutter our lives and our bedrooms.

Many people choose to have a TV or other forms of entertainment in their room to help them fall asleep. Instead, people should be encouraged to remove all the unnecessary electronics from their rooms. Some popular alternatives are white noise machines, essential oil diffusers or a simple fan. By removing the blaring electronics from our bedrooms, we are able to introduce sleep aids that are less distracting, allowing us to have the best nights sleep possible.

More people have gravitated to even leave their cell phones charging in their bathrooms or right outside their rooms. This has helped people cut back on repetitive scrolling through social media before bed. It’s one thing to constantly check our phones right before bed, but it is very common for people to wake up during the night and check their notifications and not be able to pull themselves away from their phones.

Enhance the Ambiance:

After getting rid of all the clutter in our rooms and doing our best to unplug the electronics, it’s vital that people make their room unique to themselves. Many people aim to have their bedrooms look like a spa, but sometimes their bedrooms can end up looking a little boring. This leaves little flexibility for people to express themselves through their bedroom design. People can keep their room clutter-free and still express themselves. Many people choose to use soft and neutral colours, plants, low lighting, and candles.

It’s important for people to choose a bedspread and comforter that they love! There are hundreds of choices out there for people to choose from. Some companies even let people run a trial with their product and return it if they are not entirely satisfied. If someone has a significant other, they may need to negotiate with them, if anyone runs hot or cold during the night.

Adding more greenery to a bedroom offers many benefits. People attempt to appear healthy and add a natural touch by including fake plans into their bedroom design. These fake plants are dust magnets and people don’t realize that some fake plants can be more harmful than good. It is important to utilize plants that make it easier for us to breathe and to also purify the air we breathe within our bedrooms.

Low lighting can make our bedrooms extremely inviting and give it a relaxing look. Many people install dimmers so their lights in their room aren’t too harsh. Also, blackout curtains are extremely popular for people who sleep at abnormal sleep hours. These heavier curtains can even help save energy. During the winter seasons, they help trap in the heat helping hibernate through the winter nights, making it possible, even in the worst time of the year, to get the best nights sleep possible.
