3. Limit Caffeine Intake
We all know coffee and drinks that contain caffeine are the perfect pick me up when we are feeling tired. So try to limit these drinks especially in the afternoon to ensure when your head hits the pillow you will go to sleep soundly.
4. Include Physical Activity Into Your Day
Regular activity can help promote a better nights sleep. I know this as after a big run I feel completely exhausted. My body cannot wait to get to bed for a rest. Try not to exercise to closely to bedtime or this could have the reverse effect.
