In today's article I want to talk about life hacks that will allow make your sleep healthier. Personally, I decided to take control of my sleep from the new year.

1. During sleep, provide complete darkness in the room, this is very important, as complete darkness helps the body it is better to produce a number of hormones, which he needs (I will not describe in detail, it is easy to find on the Internet). The same situation and with sounds. That is, it is necessary excludeany light sources, including various lights and nightlights, and sound sources, even as small as the ticking of a clock. A night bandage helps me with this, but I am not comfortable sleeping with earplugs.

2. Go to bed and get up necessary strictly at the same time every day, so the brain learns to restore the body during this period of time. In addition, you need to wake up in REM sleep (I will also not go deep, for those who are interested, you can easily find information on the Internet), in order to do this, you need to sleep so many hours that it is divisible by 1.5, that is

6, 7.5 or 9. I sleep 7.5 hours, but don't forget what you need add 5-10 minutes to fall asleep. Waking up at the right time will help applications like smart alarms, who will calculate everything for you. Moreover, some of them are able to analyze your movements during sleep, accurately determine the phases and wake you up optimally at the time interval you choose. Such applications are free and their can be easily installed on any smartphone, and if you have a fitness bracelet or smartwatch, it is still much easier, since it does everything for you.
