3 tips for better sleep

Sleep is good for mental, physical, and cognitive health. I won't babble more about it.

There are things you can do during the day (like sunlight) but these tips are exclusively done right before/during sleep! So you’ll notice the benefits faster.

These are 3 tips for a better sleep environment:

1. Cool. You can turn on AC or layer blankets to the extent you feel cold but comfortable.
   ​

2. Dark. The more dark the better. You can close the curtains, turn off screens, and ask housemates/family if they mind turning off other lights in the house when you need to sleep.
   ​

3. Quiet. This is harder depending on where you live. A good workaround is to play calm music, white noise, or nsdr in the background so you can wind-down to that - instead of sounds coming from cars, family, tv, etc.

​

That’s it. Keep your bedroom Cool, dark, and quiet.
