What should men do if they have trouble sleeping? Ten tips to improve sleep

We all know that sleep is the foundation of the body. The human body needs to rest, restore physiological functions, and regenerate and repair cells through sleep. Poor sleep not only affects people's mental state and makes people easily tired, but long-term poor sleep can also cause major diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. Therefore, having a good sleep is very important for the human body. Here are some good ways to promote sleep.

1: First of all, you need to develop a good work and rest habit, go to bed on time, get up on time, and establish a conditioned reflex at the moment. This will help to deepen your sleep and promote the elimination of brain fatigue.

2: Do not do strenuous exercise or activities that highly stimulate the brain before going to bed. Take a walk to relax your energy and stabilize your mood.

3: The indoor temperature and humidity should be appropriate, and the indoor air should be fresh. A slightly cool room temperature is the most suitable for sleeping.

4: Make sure the bedding is flat, the underwear is clean, soft and simple, and the pillow is not too high or too low, because a pillow that is too high or too low will affect the blood circulation of the brain.

5: Don’t eat too much hard food before going to bed, such as corn, beans, and hotpot. Don’t eat too much. It’s best to have dinner two hours before going to bed. Don’t drink tea or coffee, smoke, drink alcohol, or eat stimulant foods.

6: If the environment is noisy, you can use cotton to block the ear canal to reduce the impact of noise. Do not cover your head or lie prone to avoid affecting your breathing. It is better to sleep on your back or on your right side.

7: Listening to beautiful music and soaking your feet in hot water for 10 to 20 minutes before going to bed usually helps you fall asleep. If conditions permit, you can also take a warm bath before going to bed for better results.

8: People with weak energy usually have a lot of thoughts and cannot calm down. At this time, don't be impatient, but concentrate on thinking about a question, listen to the ticking sound of the clock, or pay attention to your own breathing, or count quietly from 1 to 100 repeatedly.

9: Comb your hair before going to bed, preferably until your scalp stops getting red and hot. This can unclog the blood circulation in the head, which is conducive to falling asleep and has a hair care effect at the same time.

10: Before going to bed, you can massage the Yongquan acupoints on the soles of your feet 200 times each. This will help you fall asleep and keep fit.

One of the functions of sleep is that during this time, the brain begins to store memories and cells regenerate and repair themselves. Long-term poor sleep can have a negative impact on health and cause a large number of serious and life-threatening diseases, including cancer, diabetes and heart disease.
