We all have evenings when we find it hard to fall asleep or find ourselves waking up in the night. How we sleep and how much sleep we need is different for all of us and changes as we get older. Sleep problems usually sort themselves out within about a month.
But longer stretches of bad sleep can start to affect our lives. It can cause extreme tiredness and make usually manageable tasks harder. What with party season and the festivities upon us the 5 simple tips from the sleep and nutrition experts at Indi and a sleep boost from Rest, can make all the difference
Adopt healthier habits with 5 simple tips from the sleep and nutrition experts at Indi:
1. Get outside, early
GMT means brighter mornings. Expose yourself to daylight as soon as possible after waking up to improve mood, reduce tiredness through the day and help you fall asleep quicker at night.
2. Shift your evening meal
Leave at least two hours between your last bite to eat and the moment your head hits the pillow.
3. Watch out for social jet lag
Going to bed and waking up later at the weekends can have the same negative health impacts as jet lag. These irregular sleep patterns can result in poor sleep quality, imbalanced hormones, low mood, reduced mental performance and even chronic illness.
4. Eat sleep-promoting foods
Kiwis, whole milk, almonds and chia seeds are all high in Tryptophan, which plays a role in the production of sleep-regulating Melatonin. This essential amino acid is also vital for a wide variety of metabolic functions that affect your mood, cognition, and behaviour.
