In fact, lack of sleep does more to your body than you may know…
The Problem with Sleep Loss
You see, there are many problems that may be associated with sleep loss.
Of course, you have your staples…
Grogginess, poor concentration, problems with memory, head in a fog, and many others, round out the common issues with poor sleep.
But there ARE others…
Sleep loss may mess with your body’s natural ability to burn fat and keep it off.
In fact, sleep loss encourages the rise in a special hormone in your body that could make crave high calorie, carbohydrate-rich foods.
You know, the ones that are commonly found in vending machines, in the bakery isle, or the snack shop wrapped in colorful candy wrappers.
Besides that, sleep loss also increases your cortisol levels, which may increase your body’s ability to store and hang on to fat instead of burning it.
So what can you do to improve your sleep?
The 3 Best Ways to Improve Sleep
Although there are many tips for improving sleep, these may be the top 3:
1. Set a Sleep Routine
If you want to encourage the best sleep possible, you need to set a schedule.
Going to bed and waking up at the same time every day may train your brain and body to know when it’s time to sleep and when it’s time to wake up.
After a few weeks of following your schedule, your body may be so used to the schedule that you are ready for bed at the right time, every time.
2. Avoid Exercise and Caffeine at Night
Both caffeine and exercise act as stimulants to your body.
So avoiding them later in the evening or at night may be the best ways to avoid the excess energy that both of these powerful stimulants create.
Exercising in the early morning or afternoon hours may provide you with a much needed energy boost that may last you all day.
It would be best to avoid caffeine after six at night in order to allow your body to process the caffeine, therefore keeping your sleep free from the interference from caffeine.
3. Keep the Bed for Sleeping
This is an important step in maintaining the best sleep.
You should avoid reading, watching TV, surfing the net, or arguing in bed.
Stimulation by TV or reading may program your brain and body to expect an activity when you hit the sack.
And this may easily disrupt your sleep cycle.
So keep your bed and bedroom for sleeping to ensure that you get the best sleep possible.
