The Economy and Your Stress Level
01/24/2009 - By Jessica Yadegaran
Restless? Too Much Stress....is Stressful.
Good sleeping habits:
Sleep as much as needed to feel refreshed during the following day, but not more. Spending excessive time in bed is related to shallow sleep. Waking up at a consistent time in the morning strenghtens sleep cycles and can help you fall asleep at similar times each night. A steady daily amount of exercise might deepen sleep. Do not exercise before bedtime. Occasional loud noises, such as traffic and excessively warm room can disturb sleep.
Hunger might disturb sleep - a light snack might help. Caffeine in the evening disturbs sleep. Alcohol helps some fall asleep, but sleep is fragmented. Avoid alcohol before bed. If you feel fustrated because you cannot sleep, do not stay in bed. Get up, turn on the light and do something different, such as reading or doing simple crafts. Once you are sleepy again, go back to bed.
