Good sleep is essential not only for general good health and mood but it can also help with weight loss. Research has tied obesity to many factors, but a lack of sleep can sometimes disturb appetite regulation, while regular sleep hygiene has been linked with increased weight loss in those who are dieting or otherwise trying to live a healthy lifestyle.
Sleep helps to regulate moods, as well, and overeating is sometimes tied to “boredom” or “bad mood” eating, during which people are especially likely to select foods that are bad for them. Sometimes, these foods can then sometimes cause indigestion, which means it is harder to get to sleep, and the cycle continues, and health deteriorates.
Clothes for sleeping:
When choosing clothes for sleeping you must pay attention to fabrics, they should be natural, so that your body could breathe.
Getting enough good sleep:
1. Avoid rigorous physical activity or exercise around 3-4 hours before the scheduled sleeping time.
2. Regulate sleep and wake up times so that the body gets conditioned to sleeping at a particular time.
3. Try having warm milk before sleeping to relax the body. A warm shower and listening to soothing music also help.
4. Ideally, there should be a gap of at least 2-3 hours between dinner and bedtime for proper digestion. Also, avoid drinking too much water before sleeping, to minimise frequent visits to the toilet, and disturbed sleep.
5. Ensuring the room is sufficiently dark and noise-free is important.
