| |  | | | | 7 ways you might be sabotaging your sleep | | Getting enough sleep each night is essential for good health. If any of the following habits sound familiar, you might want to change them to see if that helps. If that doesn't work, consider speaking with a doctor to get to the root of your sleep issues and protect your well-being. | - Too little sunlight in the morning: Sunlight tells our brains that it's time to wake up and start the day. Aim to get at least 20 to 30 minutes of morning sunshine to see if that helps regulate your sleep cycle.
- Too much blue light in the evening: This can delay the onset of melatonin production, which helps prepare your brain for sleep. Avoid blue light during the 2 hours leading up to bedtime.
- Eating too little or too late: Diets low in fiber and high in saturated fat and added sugars are linked with lower sleep quality. Eat more fruits, veggies, and anti-inflammatory foods, and avoid eating 2 hours before bed to reduce the risk of heartburn, which can also keep you awake or disrupt your sleep.
- Hanging out in bed during the day: Try to limit time in bed to sleep and intimacy. Otherwise, your brain might associate being in bed with staying awake, which can keep you up.
- Late or long naps: If your nap is long enough to fall into a deep sleep, it can be harder to wake up and fall asleep later that night. Try not to nap later than 3 p.m.
- Exercising at night: A 2019 study found that evening workouts between 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. can disturb your body clock. Aim to work out in the morning or no later than 7 p.m.
- Not having a bedtime routine: Dimming the lights, turning off electronics, meditating, and even changing into pajamas can signal to your brain that it's time to wind down and prep for bed.
