Many people still
eat sweets or sugar-laced foods late in the evening or before going to bed.
Unfortunately, this
can affect the body's resting or sleeping cycle, and may even prevent a person
from falling to the deeper levels of sleep.
Sleep is not only
measured by the number of hours you spend sleeping, but also by the quality of
your sleep.
People who can sleep
for at least 7.5 to 9 hours, and reach deep sleep or REM sleep, may feel more
energetic and alert during their waking hours.
Another factor that can disrupt your sleeping cycle is noise. Earmuffs are handy, but these cannot provide uniform and effective noise masking. Try white noise machines.
These noise cancellation systems can
help you achieve a more peaceful environment, conducive for sleep without much hassle. You simple turn one on.
Observe what you eat before bedtime, and use a white noise machine to combat noise. You'll be amazed at how easily your sleeping pattern improves, and with it your health.
