1. Avoid drinking coffee, red wine or eating chocolate before bed

The most important thing to get a deep and restful sleep is to not be interrupted during sleep. It takes about four hours for you to enter deep sleep and recharge your body. During this time, if your sleep is interrupted by anything, it will reduce the quality of sleep, and leave you feeling tired the next morning.

One of the main causes of 'restless sleep' is an unhealthy diet. Foods and drinks containing stimulants such as coffee, red wine, milk chocolate... all affect the digestive system and disrupt your sleep. The further away from bedtime you consume these foods, the better.

2. Go to the toilet before going to bed

Another cause of interrupted sleep is nocturnal urination. Before bedtime, you spend time reading, watching TV, playing with your phone, and then go straight to sleep. At this time, your bladder may be full of urine but you do not notice it because you are focused on other things. However, because the kidneys are still working all night, even while you sleep, you will wake up at the most unwanted time to go to the bathroom.

Going to the bathroom before bed not only helps you avoid sleep interruptions, but also helps keep your kidneys healthy by not having to work too hard.

3. Reasonable bedroom layout

To feel comfortable and secure when going to sleep, your bedroom needs to be painted and furnished appropriately. The colors you use in your bedroom greatly affect your mood when you lie down on the bed. Colors that bring a sense of peace, calm and harmony such as pastel blues are ideal colors to help you improve the quality of your sleep. The bed should be placed in a position where you cannot see a direct path to the outside when the door is open, as this will give you a strong sense of security, creating a feeling of security when sleeping.

4. Focus on what makes you happy and excited when you wake up

If you wake up in the morning feeling anxious, stressed, or with negative thoughts, you will still feel tired and sluggish even if you had a good night's sleep. So try to think about what makes you feel happy and excited about the new day. You can do this more easily if you plan your activities for the next day the day before. No matter what you focus on when you wake up, starting the day with excitement and joy will energize you and reduce the feeling of fatigue.

5. Maintain a sports regimen every morning

Exercising early in the morning can help boost your mood and concentration.

The feeling of being alert and not tired when waking up early can disappear quickly if you do not motivate your body to move. Exercising in the early morning can help you improve your mood and focus. Simple exercises such as jogging will cause your brain to release endorphins into your bloodstream, which will help reduce feelings of stress and laziness. In addition, regular exercise every morning will also increase your energy levels throughout the day.
