Sleep is crucial to learning, memory, and academic success. To prepare for a good night's sleep, follow these sleep hygiene tips:
-
Be consistent. Go to bed and get up at the same times each day - yes, weekends too!
-
Avoid or limit caffeine and alcohol.
-
Don’t take naps, do go on a walk.
-
Keep your bedroom dark and cool (approximately 65 degrees).
-
Turn off your phone, computer, and electronic devices at least 30 minutes before bedtime.
