Set a Routine
Consistency is key! Try going to bed and waking up around the same time every day, even on weekends. This helps regulate your body's natural sleep-wake
cycle, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep. Think of it like a regular 'puja' for your body.
Relaxation Rituals
Wind down before bed with a calming ritual. This could include a warm bath with your favorite Indian essential oils, reading a book (not on a screen!), or listening to soothing music. Avoid stressful news or work emails before hitting the pillow. Namaste to good sleep!
Optimize Your Space
Create a sleep-friendly environment. Make sure your bedroom is dark, quiet, and cool. Use blackout curtains, earplugs, or a fan if needed. A comfortable mattress and pillows also contribute. Remember, your bedroom is your sanctuary – make it a peaceful haven.
Diet and Exercise
What you eat and drink affects your sleep. Avoid caffeine and alcohol before bed. Regular exercise can improve sleep, but avoid strenuous workouts close to bedtime. A light evening walk, perhaps near a serene Indian temple, is ideal.
Address Issues
If you consistently struggle with sleep, consider seeking professional help. Talk to your doctor about potential underlying medical conditions or sleep disorders. They can provide guidance and solutions tailored to your needs. Don't hesitate, your health matters!
