Creating the Calm
First, create the perfect sleep haven. Dim the lights, cool down your room, and silence the outside world. Think of it like setting the stage for a peaceful
night, much like preparing for a quiet evening after a lively Diwali celebration.
Embrace Sleep Hygiene
Doctors swear by good sleep hygiene practices. Make sure your bed is only for sleeping. Avoid screen time right before bed – imagine it like staying away from the loud music just before a peaceful meditation session.
Banish Bedtime Caffeine
Caffeine can keep you awake, just as a spicy biryani can sometimes keep your taste buds buzzing! Avoid coffee and energy drinks before bed. This will ensure you can fall asleep easily and have a peaceful sleep.
Sunlight & Activity
Get some sunshine during the day and stay active. A little bit of movement, like a brisk walk, is like a soothing melody before bedtime, helping you feel relaxed and ready for a good night's sleep.
Consistent Sleep Times
The most important step is to stick to a regular sleep schedule. Try going to bed and waking up at the same time every day, even on weekends. This consistency trains your body to be ready for sleep, similar to how your body adapts to the daily chai routine.
