6 Tips For A Good Night's Sleep

1. Exercise is excellent for a good night's sleep. It reduces mental stress, but just don't do it right before bed or you may be awake longer.

2. Drink coffee in moderation. Duh!

3. Avoid large meals within 2-3 hours of bedtime. And don't drink too much alcohol as a way to help you sleep; it will only make your sleep quality poor.

4. Have a standard bedtime routine. Try to go to bed, and get up the same time each day.

5. Maintain a comfortable sleep environment. A supportive mattress and pillow, plus a dark room are important.

6. Make sure your room isn't too hot. Most people sleep best in a cool room.
