World Sleep Day was created
to understand the importance of sleep for a healthy mind and a healthy body. It
educates everyone about sleep issues, medications, naps, and everything that
has to do with sleep. Some people sleep better by taking naps. However, too
many naps can mess up your sleep routine at night. Therefore, knowing what
works for you to get a good rest is the best remedy.
As well as not over
abusing sleep medications, natural herbs, and allergy medications. Certain
allergy medications taken at night can disrupt your sleep. As well as not
getting the right amount of sleep, you might feel drowsy the entire day
until the allergy medication wears out of your system. Speak to your doctor or
an allergy specialist about other alternatives for your allergies that keep you
awake at night. Take a warm bath or shower before going to sleep.
Use a different shampoo
at night for washing your hair. Additionally, you can sleep with a satin sleep
cap to help you sleep at night especially if you suffer from allergies. If you
have long hair, put your hair in braids and then the sleep cap before going to
sleep. Use a mattress protector and a hypoallergenic pillow protector to avoid sneezing
at night. Every two to three weeks, wash and dry your blankets, pillowcases, and
sheets.
On March 18, you can
bring awareness of World Sleep Day by donating to Sleep in Heavenly Peace where
they give a bed to kids. Also, you can donate your old mattress before getting
a new mattress. Furthermore, you can use the #WorldSleepDay on social media to
bring awareness about the importance of sleep. If you use a sleep app, you can
share your favorite sleep app on social media. Below are links for World Sleep
Day and tips for better sleep.
