2. Find time to exercise each day. Exercise can help your body achieve better heath which will provide better sleep. Try not to exercise right before going to bed.

3. Take a nap. Find time to take a short nap during the day. However, napping too much during the day can create a short night of sleeping.

4. Eat light and right. Try not to eat or drink at least two hours before going to bed. Always make sure you are eating healthy foods. You will continue to digest your food while sleeping and your body will have a much easier time digesting healthy foods.

7. Choose the right pillow. Pillows come in all shapes and sizes. Your pillow should support your neck and its proper position. Keeping your head and neck in a neutral position is important.
