How to fall asleep quickly and easily: a full guide

The average adult wakes up twice a night, often blaming temperature fluctuations, stress, and a snoring partner.

A recent study by British scientists also found financial problems and minor illnesses, such as nasal congestion, as common causes of restless sleep, which is usually recorded between 1:00 and 3:00, OBOZ.UA writes.

Scientists note that many people want to have healthier habits, but poor sleep can get in the way. When we are not well rested, it becomes much more difficult to make healthy decisions when it comes to diet and exercise.

Experts have given some tips on how to fall asleep quickly.

Prioritize and personalize your sleep

Your sleep is essential to your well-being, and it should be a priority.

Think about what your body needs. Determine what exactly prevents you from falling asleep on time and quickly, whether it is stress or bad habits, such as coffee in the afternoon, etc. Then try to eliminate these factors.

Develop a permanent habit

Sleep and our biological clocks love routine, so the best thing you can do is try to wake up at the same time every morning (even on weekends!) to maintain a good night's rest and overall health.

Start a sleep preparation practice

Just as your body needs time to wake up, it also needs time to calm down and rest, preparing for a good night's sleep.

Try setting an alarm an hour before bedtime to start relaxing. Use this time to calm your mind and body with relaxing activities while cutting down on TV or gadget time.

Keep yourself comfortable

Avoid hot showers or baths before bed, as your body needs to cool down a couple of degrees to fall asleep. In addition, take care of a comfortable bed, bedding, and the clothes you are going to sleep in.
