Feeling well-rested when you wake up in the morning is a key component when it comes to your mood, attitude, and productivity. Sure, coffee can provide a jolt of energy but that's no substitute for a good night of sleep.
If you're interested in getting better sleep at night, try out one (or all) of these tips!
1. Limit Caffeine Consumption
Coffee and energy drinks can provide enough energy to power you through the workday. However, consuming these drinks too late in the afternoon may keep you up at night. It can take 6 hours for caffeine to leave your body. With this in mind, aim to have your last cup of coffee at least 6 hours before you plan on going to bed.
2. Establish a Night Time Routine
Having a consistent schedule at night not only organizes your time, it will also prime your mind to get ready for bed. The activities that you build your routine with should be things that are relaxing and/or things that will make the next morning easier for you (like ironing your outfit for tomorrow or pre-packing your lunch).
