Sleep is one of the basic human needs. We exert extra effort in planning our meals to come out with the best balance that will nourish our body. In the same manner, we should put importance to sleep. Sleep comes easy for most people but it can be a problem to others. Suggestions have been made by no less than doctors on how this problem can be remedied.

They suggest going to bed at the same time every night and getting up at the same time every morning. Daytime naps should also be limited and should be timed so as not to affect regular bedtime. The room temperature should be maintained within 62 and 65 degrees; while keeping the bedroom quiet and dark. Proper clothing should be worn when going to bed. A silk nightdress or a warm pajama set will put you in the right setting.
