Things to Do for Good Sleep In order to have good sleep, besides from developing a good sleeping
habit, you can change your room around a bit to create the best environment for sleep.
Room Color
Experts say that the healthiest bedroom
should be mainly blue in colour. Light blue bedsheets and covers, deep blue pajamas, or even
a blue theme for the whole room, can help reduce stress and allow a person to fall asleep more easily.
Pajamas
Allowing your skin to breathe in freash air is an important part of sleep.
Your skin needs adequate oxygen for good sleep. Choose to wear loose-fitting pajamas made of material that is highly
air-permeable. NEVER wear tight clothes, as this will affect blood circulation and make it a restless night.
Your Feet
Researchers from Sweden say that sleep is greatly connected with body temperature.
In order to sleep well, your body temperature must be even. Your feet are the part of your body with the lowest
temperature, so you may try to warm up your feet in order to fall asleep more quickly. Try
having a nice hot foot bath before you sleep or wear socks to sleep if you have icy feet.
Your Hair
Brushing your hair well before sleep helps circulation. Try to brush your hair
until your scalp is warm, then you can easily fall into sleep.
