Most adults need eight hours of sleep each night. You may need a bit more or less. There are many out there who sleep as little as possible.Their busy lifestyles dictating their sleep time. Others have no trouble getting plenty of sleep(and are often hard to get out of bed - some teenagers for example).
How do you know if you have healthy sleep habits? It's actually very simple. You just have to ask yourself a few questions. When you wake up in the morning, do you feel like you got a good night's sleep? Do you get at least 5-8 hours of sleep a night? Do you feel awake all day long? If you answer yes to all of these, then you probably have very healthy sleep habits.
Essential oils such as Lavender, Chamomile, Sandalwood, Oregano and others have calming properties that can help induce peaceful sleep. There are a number of ways to incorporate essential oils into your sleep routine, though the most popular are through mist and diffusion. Adding a few drops to a warm nighttime bath is also popular. As a person who’s had my fair share of sleepless nights, I’ve found success by adding a few drops of Lavender to my pillows two to three times a week. It’s surprising effective.
Establish a relaxing bedtime routine such as soaking in a warm bathtub, listening to soothing music or sipping a cup of relaxing herbal tea. With the relaxing before bedtime routine, it can help your body to ease all the tension you have and go to sleep easily.
Always follow a regular sleep schedule even during weekends - we must maintain a regular schedule for getting up and going to sleep, whether it would be weekdays or weekends. If you achieve a regular routine for sleeping, it will make you feel better and eventually, you will refrain from napping too much during the early evenings or late afternoons. This is usually the foremost factor why older people find it hard to fall asleep when it is time for doing so.
A basic need of the human body, sleep is also a basic need of the human mind. If we don't get enough sleep, our bodies and minds can't function properly and it becomes difficult to achieve our goals that we have set to do. During sleep, our bodies take time to rejuvenate, and our minds take time to work through problems, to explore themselves and to rest. These activities are essential for your health and well-being.
Do not over eat before sleep and finish eating least 2-3 hours before bed. You will feel less comfortable if you eat right before bed or having heavy meal before bedtime. It will cause indigestion and affect your sleep.
