Your TV is both a visual and audio stimulant that might still engage your senses while you are trying to get some sleep.

A lumpy mattress will do a lot of damage to your body.


There is nothing worse than waking up with an aching body.


As long as your body is not comfortable, you will not sleep well.

3. Go To Bed Early

Adjust your bedtime and trick your body slowly but surely into sleeping early.


Adding a few more hours to your sleeping time will do wonders for you.


You might toss and turn for a few hours during the first days, but the persistence will eventually pay off in time.


In a few days, your body will realise that there is no point in putting up a fight and allow you to sleep.


I am not saying that you have to go to bed early every night but training your body to fall to sleep on earlier nights is something you need to work at.


Because if you go to bed late every night, your body gets into the pattern of not wanting to sleep early. And going to sleep late every night is doing damage to your body.


Early nights are a must to keep you functioning properly and rejuvenated.


Treat your body the way it deserves and allows yourself to rest throughout the night.


As you can see, there are plenty of distractions that you can get around if you put your mind to it, and not say just a little longer.


It can wait till the next day.


The more you sleep through the night, the better off you will be in more than one way.
