5 easy hacks that could help you get a better night's sleep

Jul 21 2017, 11:27 pm

We’ve all seen them, novelty t-shirts that read “namast’ay in bed”, pillow shams proclaiming to be the “nap queen” and coffee mugs that suggest you better not mess with me until my third or fourth cup.

Humorous as they may be, these items underline a much bigger issue, and that’s a need for better sleep.

You’d be surprised by the difference that swapping your current mattress for a Squeeze™ memory foam mattress can make not only throughout your day, but your life.

So to help you get started on your path to getting a better night’s sleep, we’ve compiled a list of five simple hacks that can help you out.

Go to bed earlier

Sure, it’s easier said than done, but luckily, this one’s all about setting some simple rules. Make a deal with yourself to go to bed by 10 pm during the week and then give yourself a later time during the weekend if you’d like.  It can help put a spring in your step and who knows, you could even become a morning person.

Avoid eating late at night

A late night snack while immersing yourself in the latest episode of Game of Thrones may seem like a good idea, but those delicious treats could be sabotaging your sleep. Late night snacks can throw off both your hormonal balance, key for sleep, as well as your body’s sleep cycles.

Invest in an excellent mattress

You want to wake up refreshed after a night’s sleep and investing in a good mattress can help you feel that way. Say goodbye to restless nights and hello to the ultimate sleeping experience with a Kingsdown Squeeze™ mattress. Made in Canada with high-density memory foam to support and contour your entire body, it even boasts a specially engineered fabric and cooling gel to help keep your body at just the right temperature while you sleep. And to make it even better, you can order the mattress right to your home and it will be simple to get it through your front door since the Kingsdown Squeeze™ mattress arrives in a box. It’s also easy to set up whether you opt for a queen, double, or king size.

Do yoga

If you want to calm your body and mind a few hours before going to bed then doing yoga could be the answer. You’ll feel more mellow after a busy day and your thoughts aren’t scattered when it’s time for bed. All that stretching also helps your muscles relax so you won’t feel stiff when it’s finally time to fall asleep.

Set your devices at a lower lighting level

Okay, we know it’s difficult to put down your phone, and it might feel like an impossible task. If that’s the case, set your phone to a lower level of lighting.
