Get Your Best Night's Sleep

Sleep, that time when your brain and body begins the job of repairing itself after a hard day working, studying or being physically active. If you get the best sleep, you can feel on top of your game, ready to face all the challenges that life throws at you and ready to perform at your absolute best.

But so often a restful night’s sleep doesn’t happen, whether that’s because of young children, of staying up too late or just tossing and turning and finding it impossible to drift off. In this blog we take a look at what you can do to maximise your chances of getting a great night’s sleep.

 

Get Comfy

 

There are lots of reasons why people find it hard to sleep but choosing the wrong mattress is certainly one of them. Too soft and you find yourself with a sore back and a dent that keeps you rolled into the same position. Too hard and you wake up stiff and sore from sleeping on what feels like concrete. 

 

Sleep experts recommend a firm mattress that supports your back and neck without being too hard or too soft. If you’re looking for the best mattresses, you could also consider a memory foam option that molds along with your shape for the ultimate support, this material is also available for pillows.

 

Your room, too, should be a comfortable place to sleep, with curtains that block out a great deal of light. Your ambient temperature should tend towards the cool rather than hot, as the body prefers that when sleeping.

Get a Great Routine

 

Not just for young children, a bedtime routine is another key to a great night’s sleep. Start by dimming the lights in your living space to let your brain know that it’s time to wind down. While it’s perfectly normal to unwind by watching television or your phone in the evening, make sure that all screens are off at least an hour before you head to bed and leave your phone away from your bed, in a different room if you can.

 

Help relax yourself even more with a warm bath, warm drink and by reading for a little while. All these things will give the right signals to your brain and body that it’s time for rest and to shut down for the day.

If you do wake up in the night don’t be tempted to reach for your phone, the blue light will start waking up your brain and you’ll find it much harder to drop off back to sleep again.

When all you need is a great night’s sleep, start with the basics in comfort and then move on to these top tips to get your whole body ready to close down.

 

Keep a consistent bedtime routine and you’ll soon be getting that eight hours needed for a restful and rejuvenating night’s sleep, giving you back the energy you need to take on another busy day.

    Biggest piece of advice: don’t use any screen (phone, tv, laptop) an hour or two before bed. Blue light emitted from them messes with deep sleep. Night shift/flux makes it better if you must.. but it’s advisable to just limit electronic use.

    Also the other cliches: Eat healthy, exercise more, make sure to get a bit of sunlight (or Vitamin D), limit stress and meditate.

    We need to sleep at the end of the day to recharge yourself. A good comfortable bed must need for better sleep. I have a little back pain and I personally use a firm mattress. It’s really good for the back support.
