Tips on Preventing Insomnia

To some people, being able to fall asleep fast and to have an undisrupted sleep throughout the night is a luxury. In fact, everyone can achieve that by taking note of his/her sleeping habits.

To prevent insomnia, there are 7 sleeping habits that you got to work on:

1. Keep normal hours
Having a regular routine helps programme your body to sleep better.

2. Ensure deeper sleep
Your pillow should not be too soft, hard or small. You may try spraying your pillow or sheets with The Body Shop Deep Sleep Dreamy Pillow & Body Mist. Its relaxing ingredients of jujube date and chamomile will be released throughout the night to ensure a more tranquil night’s rest.

3. Create a restful sleeping environment
Make your bedroom as comfortable as possible. This can be achieved by making it as quiet and dark as possible, keeping it at the right temperature.

4. Don’t over-indulge
Too much food and alcohol can wreck havoc on sleep pattern, especially late at night. Alcohol may help you fall sleep initially, but will interrupt your sleep later on in the night.

5. Leave your worries behind
If you have got a heavy workload, make a list of things to be tackled the next day.

6. Don’t fret
If you difficulty falling asleep, don’t lie there tossing and turning. Get up and do something you find relaxing until you feel sleepy, then go back to bed.

7. Don’t smoke
Smokers tend to take longer to fall sleep, wake up more often and experience more sleep disruption.
