4 tips for better sleep

When you skimp on sleep, the effects are obvious. You could be lethargic or moody, and you probably have a hard time concentrating.

Burn the candle at both ends regularly and the effects could be even more damaging. Studies have shown that if you don't get 7 to 9 hours of quality sleep each night, you increase your risk for heart disease, diabetes, weight gain, and depression. And that's not to mention the impact of sleep deprivation on your driving.

But with sleep disorders plaguing at least 40 million Americans and jam-packed schedules affecting most of us, it can be hard to get enough shut-eye. To improve your sleep (and your health), try these quick tips:
Keep a regular sleep schedule. Going to bed and waking at the same time every day helps regulate your internal clock. By training your body to expect sleep at a certain hour, you'll fall asleep easier and wake up more refreshed.
Avoid alcohol and caffeine close to bedtime. Caffeine can take up to 6 hours to leave your system, while alcohol frequently results in disturbed sleep later in the night.
Sweat. The National Sleep Foundation 2013 poll found that people who exercise fall asleep faster and sleep better than their more inactive counterparts. Adding just 10 minutes of walking per day can improve sleep quality.
Create your pillow-time paradise. Sleep best with black-out shades, Egyptian cotton sheets, and the sound of a babbling brook in the distance? Make it happen! Having a sleep environment that's right for you is key.
Getting sound sleep, however, is only one aspect of maintaining your health. Having the right health insurance is another. If you're looking for a health insurance policy to meet your needs, we can help. Get your free health insurance quote today.
