"Doctor's 5 Tips for Better Sleep: The Key to a Healthier Life"

Dr. Sophie Bostock, a sleep expert, shares her top tips for getting a better night's sleep. She advises waking up at the same time every day, even on weekends, to maintain a consistent sleep schedule and avoid "social jetlag." Getting an early dose of daylight, through exposure to natural or artificial light, helps regulate the body clock. Regular exercise, including activities like tai chi and yoga, can improve sleep quality and reduce stress. Practicing relaxation techniques throughout the day can help switch off the body's stress response. Lastly, sticking to a consistent bedtime routine and avoiding technology before bed can promote better sleep.
