5 tips to sleep better

Are you literally and figuratively tired of not sleeping well at night? Don't worry, MyZen TV gives you 5 tips to help you sleep better!

The benefits of sleep are numerous, but to take advantage of them, you must first sleep well!

Do not drink coffee or tea after midday

It's obvious, but it's always good to remember! If you want your brain to leave you alone at night, you should not drink so-called "stimulating" drinks. If you are addicted to your caffeine or theine fix, have your last cup after lunch. Otherwise, don't count on a good night's sleep!

Respect your bedtime

Get under the duvet, read a book, do a crossword puzzle, but don't look at a screen! When you feel sleep coming on, don't fight it! Your body is sending you signs, listen to it. Then it will be too late and you will be tossing and turning all night.

Try to have a regular rhythm

If you can, set a time for yourself to go to bed and a time to get up. This will get your body used to a regular sleep cycle and you will eventually fall asleep automatically at a set time. Remember, your body is a clock!

Do regular physical activity... but not in the evening!

Sport releases endorphins that help you to relax and fall asleep. On the other hand, if you engage in physical activity before going to bed, you risk being too excited at the time and missing out on sleep. The same battle as for theine and caffeine!

Meditate

Before going to bed, soothe your body and mind through mediation. This will allow your muscles to relax and your consciousness to let you breathe. For this, there is My Zen radio! All night long, My Zen Attitude radio offers you short exercises that will allow you to reduce the stress linked to daily life.

Do not use your phone before sleeping

It's the number one enemy of falling asleep quickly! The more you spend your evening swiping on your phone, the less quickly you will fall asleep... This is because blue light can inhibit melatonin, the sleep hormone. So if you want to sleep better, try to reduce the screens before bed. How about this? Nothing better than a good book!

If you follow these tips, you will soon be sleeping like a baby.
