Do you toss and turn in bed for hours and don't feel refreshed when you wake up in the morning? Not getting good sleep is not only troublesome but also dangerous for your health. Research shows that not getting enough sleep increases the risk of obesity, heart disease and type 2 diabetes. But don't worry, the way to get lost in the world of dreams is still open.

Professor Russell Foster, world-renowned sleep and circadian rhythm expert, explains that if you have trouble sleeping, you should reconsider your before-bed habits.

Do not make these 6 mistakes before sleeping.

1. Overeating or eating close to bedtime: It is difficult to sleep with a heavy stomach. Eat light at dinner and stop eating at least 2 hours before sleeping.

2. Facing bright light: Light is the biggest hindrance in getting sleep. Switch off the TV 1-2 hours before sleeping, dim the lights in the room and avoid using the phone.

3. Exercising before sleeping: Although exercise is good for health, but going to the gym just before sleeping makes your body and mind active, which can delay sleep.

4. Using the phone: Using the phone before sleeping is the easiest way to avoid sleep. Keep phones away from the bedroom and choose quiet activities like reading a book or meditating to fall asleep.

5. Forget evening coffee: The effects of caffeine can last for hours, so drinking coffee or tea in the evening will keep you awake.

6. Stay away from alcohol: Alcohol may make you drowsy, but it also prevents you from going into deep sleep and can cause frequent awakenings during the night.

If you follow these tips and still can't sleep, consult a doctor. There may be a serious reason for your inability to sleep, which needs to be treated. So now improve your habits before sleeping and enjoy a restful sleep at night. Remember, good sleep is essential for your health and well-being.
