Have you ever wondered how important sleep is in our lives?
Sleep is the foundation of our health. During the night, our body recharges, our mind rests, and our energy levels are renewed.
Quality sleep directly affects our performance, well-being, and mood, making us stronger and ready to face the day ahead.
World Sleep Day invites us to reflect on the importance of sleep in our daily lives.
It’s not just about how much we sleep, but how well we sleep.
Bad habits or unsuitable sleep conditions can have serious consequences for both our health and quality of life.
Κακές συνήθειες ή ακατάλληλες συνθήκες ύπνου μπορούν να έχουν σοβαρές συνέπειες στην υγεία αλλά και στην ποιότητα ζωής μας.
- Establish a consistent sleep schedule.
Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends.
This helps your biological clock stay properly regulated.
- Create a relaxing bedtime routine.
Avoid intense activities or bright lights before bedtime.
Take a warm bath, read a book, or listen to relaxing music.
- Limit your screen time.
Screens (phones, tablets, TVs) emit blue light, which reduces melatonin production.
Try to avoid them for at least one hour before bedtime.
- Pay attention to what you eat and drink.
Avoid caffeine and nicotine in the afternoon and evening.
Avoid eating heavy meals just before going to bed.
- Create a comfortable sleep environment.
Keep your bedroom dark, quiet, and cool (16–20°C is ideal).
Use a comfortable mattress and pillows.
- Exercise during the day.
Physical activity helps promote deeper sleep.
Avoid intense workouts late at night, as they can keep you awake.
- Manage stress.
Stress can affect your sleep.
Try relaxation techniques, such as meditation, deep breathing, or keeping a gratitude journal.
