How to Make Your Bedroom Sleep-Friendly

March 19, 2020

Getting enough sleep is one of the most important things for everybody. We need to be able to wake up the next day feeling energized and ready to tackle any task we have on our plates. Not getting a good night’s rest will leave you feeling groggy and lethargic the next day, making even simple tasks feel that much more difficult. How can you get a better night of sleep? Follow these tips to create a sleep-friendly environment!

Upgrade Your Mattress

In order to sleep better, we need to start at the source, which is taking a look at what you’re sleeping on. Your mattress! If you already have a great mattress, go ahead and skip to the next tip. Having the proper mattress that works for you is essential. Sure, upgrading to a better mattress may be pricey, but it will be worth it when you feel like a new person, waking up with plenty of energy to take on the day.

Remove Clutter

Making your room clutter-free is a quick and easy way to help you sleep better. Having a messy room can leave people feeling anxious, which makes it difficult to both fall asleep and stay asleep. So, pick up those clothes laying on the floor and clear up your dresser so you can go to sleep with a clearer mind!

Close Your Curtains

Keeping your room completely dark can help you get to sleep. Of course, the easiest way to do this is to close your curtains at night so there isn’t as much light coming in. To go a step further, you can buy blackout curtains that will go a step further in making your room completely dark.

Noise

For some individuals, complete silence is needed for them to get a good night of sleep. There are also people who sleep better with a bit of ambient noise. You could turn on a fan or there are things you can buy that create a consistent noise that can help you fall asleep.

Turn Off Your Electronics

Electronics affect our sleep habits in a number of ways. For one, you can easily lose track of time by mindlessly scrolling, causing you to go to bed later than you probably should. Also, staring at screens before bed can make it difficult for us to fall asleep as soon as we put the phone down or turn off the tv. Try reading a book before bed in place of scrolling through your social networks.

Getting an adequate amount of sleep is important to everyone. Other than the health benefits, a good night’s sleep refuels our bodies and gives us the energy we need to be productive the next day. Take these simple tips and you’ll be well on your way to feeling well-rested!
