Good Sleep
Prepare for good sleep conditions
Make sure your bedroom is dark. Do not keep any lights on. When you take a nap during the day, cover your head with a soft pillow or bathrobe without blocking your breathing. This can make it much darker for you to sleep better.
Find the most comfortable room temperature for the season and your home. For example, the most comfortable room temperature for a hot summer and a single-level house may be 80F. Use a quiet fan to slowly circulate air in the bedroom on hot stuffy days.
Use two layers of comforters. Thicker and heavier comforters may help you fall asleep faster and hold you in a deep sleep longer.
Drink plenty of water during the day. However, avoid drinking a lot of fluids in the evening. Then you don’t have to get up to use the bathroom.
When you drink tea or coffee, caffeine can accumulate in your body and keep stimulating your central nervous system all the time. As a result, you may hardly feel sleepy day and night. Consequently, please avoid drinking tea and coffee regularly. Instead, drink tea and coffee on special occasions only.
Sleep time
Go to sleep early, at least by 10:30 p.m.
Make sure you have 7 – 8 hours of sleep every day.
Do not wake up completely during sleep time
Your spirit and human body need sufficient good sleep and rest to function properly. If you always wake up completely during sleep time and do other things, it can cause you serious health problems in the long term.
Consequently, please avoid waking up completely during sleep time. For example, do not get up. Do not turn on the light. Do not use your phone or tablet. Do not watch TV or read books.
