This helps regulate your body's natural sleep-wake cycle. Prepare for Rest: Just as many women embrace evening rituals like skincare, preparing for sleep is a crucial step in combating insomnia. Indulge in a warm bath approximately two hours before your intended bedtime. This allows your body temperature to drop naturally, signaling that it's time to sleep. Mind Your Intake: Be mindful of your consumption of alcohol and caffeine. It's best to avoid them within 3 to 8 hours of bedtime to prevent interference with your sleep quality. Optimize Your Sleep Environment: Transform your bedroom into a sleep sanctuary by keeping it cool, ideally in the mid-60s Fahrenheit, and ensuring it is as dark as possible. Focus on Feeling, Not Just Numbers: If you're tracking your sleep, pay more attention to how rested and functional you feel during the day rather than fixating solely on the data. Remember, the effort to sleep is often counterproductive; allow rest to come naturally.
