 When you go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends, you're setting your internal clock or circadian rhythm on autopilot. This helps regulate the production of sleep hormones like melatonin, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep. Here are some tips. 1. Align your sleep schedule with nature's rhythm. 2. Aim for bedtime shortly after sunset and wake up around sunrise. This synchronizes your internal clock with the light-dark cycle, further enhancing sleep quality. And here's why consistency is so powerful. 1. Reduces stress. A consistent sleep schedule reduces anxiety about falling asleep, creating a calmer bedtime routine. 2. Boosts energy. Quality sleep means waking up feeling refreshed and energized, ready to tackle the day.
