Getting a better night of rest is something that can improve your everyday health and mood. Being more rested simply allows you to get more done. Whether on a Monday morning or a Saturday afternoon, sleeping well overnight is a step that will improve everything you do. It’s not rocket science, either. Consider how much worse you feel after missing out on sleep? A simple head cold can put you weeks behind on your schedule. This is a simple fact.

However, what may not be as simple is understanding how to improve that rest and gain the benefits from sleeping more at night. After all, it were that easy, wouldn’t we already be doing it each and every night?!

Fear not, finding that happy place of rest and relaxation can come easier than you think. Take a look at these simple steps you can take to get more out of your resting and sleep routine each night.

Start with a solid routine. The more your body can get “set” on a nighttime schedule, the more readily it will be ready to fall asleep each night. It doesn’t so much matter what you do, rather that you do the same things to get your body wound down at night. This can be showering, stretching, getting into comfy clothes, reading, even watching TV, so long as you allow your brain to rest from screen time right before bed.

Setting your bedroom up for success can also help, such as using comfortable sheets and blankets, turning out lights, creating background noise with a machine or fan, etc. Each of these steps can seem small, but can help put you in the right mindset for sleep.

Next, ensure that you are sleeping on a comfortable surface. Everything from your mattress, to your pillow, to even the pajamas that you wear can help create a reliable sleeping surface for your body. Find a middle ground between support and cushion in order to get your best rest yet. Remember, the more good, quality sleep you can get, the better your body will feel in weeks to come.
