4 essentials for a good night's sleep
Did you know that the average human being spends between 25 and 27 years asleep? An evocative statistic. One third of our life would therefore be spent ... in bed.
Also, sleep is essential to regulate the mental function, facilitate memory work and maintain the vital functions of the body.
As you can see, it is an essential element for maintaining a healthy and balanced life. Nevertheless, one Belgian out of three considers that he/she regularly suffers from sleep disorders.
Here are our 4 essentials to optimize your sleep:
-
Develop a pre-bedtime relaxation ritual
Establish habits that promote relaxation. Take a bath, make yourself a cup of tea, put on a pair of cozy pajamas, put a drop of lavender essential oil on your pillow, all of which will, over time, act as signals to your mind that it's time to slow down and prepare to fall asleep.

Keep electronic devices away from your bedroom
Screen-related activities and the light they emit have a negative impact on sleep. Blue light inhibits the production of melatonin, the hormone that regulates the chronobiological rhythm. To avoid disrupting the natural production of melatonin, turn off your phones and tablets at least one hour before bedtime. Why not take the opportunity to read a few pages?

Make sure your bedroom is quiet, dark and cool
To do this, avoid overloading with furniture, use your bed only for sleeping (avoid eating or working in it), favor light or pastel colors. Make sure to air the room daily in summer and winter.
