The Importance of Sleep
National Sleep Foundation Recommendations:
Go to bed at the same time each night, and rise at the same time.
Make sure your bedroom is a quiet, dark, and relaxing environment, which is neither too hot or too cold.
Physical activity may help promote sleep, but not within a few hours of bedtime.
