Hello, guys!
My name is Andrei Shcheglov, and today I will tell you about one of the most important parts of our lives - and of that is sleep. The average person spends a third of his life in bed sleeping - that is, between 22 and 34 years (do your own math). Many articles and books have been written about the importance of a good night's sleep, and there are good videos on YouTube, all linked below. I will just give you practical tools and tips on how to sleep better and get enough rest.
<aside> 💡 Advice №1: Put the "sleep" activity on your calendar. This is one of the most important things that directly affects your quality of life. Why do we put appointments or household tasks on the calendar and not put such an important thing as sleep?

Set the alarm not when you need to get up but when you need to go to bed!
Now let's look at the picture below. What's wrong with that picture? The first is that the windows are not curtained - and the light from the window comes into the room. Also, an extra source of light is the alarm clock on the bedside table. Second - not the anatomical position of the head and neck - wrong pillow (and, in fact, he sleeps on two pillows!!!)

<aside> 💡 Advice №2: Like in the picture below, total darkness is the key to a sound and regenerating night's sleep. Remove all light sources from the room where you sleep. In addition, I go to bed wearing a sleep mask.

<aside> 💡 Advice №3: Total silence - remove all sources of sound from the room where you sleep. Even if you don't think you're awake from the sound - your organism may be waking up or coming out of a restorative 'deep sleep' phase. In addition to this, in noisy places - I sometimes go to bed with earplugs on.

<aside> 💡 Advice №4: The room where you sleep should be a little colder. Make sure the room is well-ventilated before you go to bed.
</aside>
<aside> 💡 Advice №5: No gadgets, mobile phones, tablets, or TV before bedtime. Before going to bed, the best thing to do is a light stretch - 5-7 minutes and a good book. It's probably a good idea to put the mobile phone away in another room altogether - an hour before bedtime.
