Sleep tips for restful sleep

Good sleep hygiene can help set you up for a better night’s rest.

  • Don’t watch television or scroll through social media.
  • Avoid caffeine and alcohol four to six hours before bedtime.
  • Avoid use of nicotine close to bedtime, as well as preferably avoiding it throughout the night.
  • Avoid napping, especially close to bedtime.
  • Use the bedroom for sleep and intimacy only.
  • Engage in a relaxing activity before bedtime to relieve stress and promote sleep.
  • Enjoy a light, caffeine-free snack before bedtime, but avoid large meals.
