As we head into 2024, many of us are planning resolutions aimed at improving our overall well-being. Don’t forget to include sleep in your wellness goals! 

At Bed’r Mattress, we’ve been in the business of helping people sleep Bed’r for over 30 years. We can confidently promise that quality sleep will improve every other area of your life as well!

Consistent Sleep Schedule

   Cultivating a consistent sleep schedule helps regulate your body’s internal clock, making it easier to fall asleep and wake up naturally. Aim for the same bedtime and wake-up time, even on weekends. 

Create a Relaxing Bedtime Routine

   Creating time to unwind before bed is important. Consider shutting off your devices, reading a book, practicing gentle stretching, or engaging in deep-breathing exercises.

Optimize Your Sleep Environment

   Keep the room cool, dark, and quiet. If you often wake up stuffy or congested, consider an air purifier. Bonus, it will put out a soothing white noise as it cleans the air. Plus, take a look at some hypoallergenic sleep options.

Mindful Eating and Hydration

   Be mindful of your eating and drinking habits, especially in the evening. Avoid heavy meals close to bedtime and limit caffeine intake. Did you know even decaf drinks can have a limited amount of caffeine? A caffeine-free herbal tea may be a better bet. 

Regular Exercise Routine

   Exercise is a big part of many weight-loss resolutions. You’ll have more motivation and energy for working out with improved sleep. Additionally, quality sleep promotes weight loss.

Limit Naps and Power Napping

   No one loves a nap more than our team at Bed’r Mattress! While a short nap can be refreshing, excessively long or late-afternoon naps may interfere with nighttime sleep. Oftentimes, daytime sleepiness is a sign of sleep deprivation.

Small changes can equal big results! We’d love to help you improve your wellness in 2024 with the power of sleep.
