What tips do you have for getting better sleep?

1. Take time to wind down before bedtime. Try to power down any electronics an hour before bed and switch to a relaxing activity like reading a book or listening to soothing music.
2. Make sure that your bedroom is comfortable and dark. Keep it at a cool temperature and avoid any bright lights or electronics which can disrupt your sleep.
3. Exercise regularly. Regular physical activity can help you sleep better, but avoid doing any strenuous activity in the hours leading up to bedtime.
4. Avoid caffeine and other stimulants late in the day. Caffeine can stay in your body up to 8 hours, so try to avoid drinking coffee, tea, or other caffeinated beverages in the late afternoon and evening.
5. Stick to a sleep schedule. Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends and days off. This can help your body get into a consistent sleep rhythm.
6. Limit alcohol and cigarettes. While they can make you feel drowsy initially, they can disrupt your sleep patterns later on in the night.
