Ways To Sleep Better
Ways To Sleep Better
3. Do morning cardio.
How does exercising in the morning contribute to sleeping better? For starters, you need
to develop a solid morning routine, which directly effects your evening rituals. Early
morning cardio gives you a reason to get out of bed, and keeps you from hitting that
snooze button, which will help you to get to bed easier the next night. Aim for 30 mins,
whether its a jog on the treadmill, a walk with the dog, or a Jazzercise routine.
7. Read more.
If diet and exercise contribute to sleep, so does a quiet mind. Take that cup of herbal tea
and sit down with some light reading to relax your mind.
8. Start a journal.
For the supercharged and on the go person, reading at night seems impossible. Instead,
I like to sit at my desk and make a list, or a short journal of all the things I accomplished
that day, and then to make a small list of things I plan to do tomorrow. This allows me to
worry less about remembering things, and to concentrate on unwinding.
9. Lift weights.
If cardio is a good morning routine, lifting weights in the evening is a perfect bedtime
routine. After dinner, spend sometime weight training. If you don’t have a weight set, do
some Crossfit style exercises or even just a few sets of sit up and push ups. Firing up
your muscles burns that lingering sugar in your bloodstream, and will help you to nod
off a little easier.
