As we have discussed earlier,  bad day time habits can lead to insomnia or lower quality of sleep. Now, let’s continue to see what are the better day time habits we should have:

4. Food and drinks

Food that can cause heartburn, will also  negatively affect your sleep. For example, tomato-based foods or beverages and spicy foods are the biggest instigators of heartburn. Heartburn will usually intensify when you lie down, which then causes much discomfort during sleep and that discomfort often cause you to wake often during sleep. Other than that, over consumption of liquids, caffeinated, alcoholic will also cause you to wake frequently too because you’ll have to urinate more.

5. Regular nappings

You may love to nap and you might be napping several times a day. Napping might be a cause of your sleep issues by disturbing the workings of your inner clock or by causing you to need fewer hours of sleep during the night. If you had to, just take a short nap not more than 30 minutes or stop napping entirely and see if doing so enhances your sleep time.
