My flat is a bedsit with everything in one room. My bed is also my sofa and recliner. For sheer lack of space and other furniture, I can't avoid using it for other things during the day, especially during lockdown. Otherwise all these tips sound great!

Yeah... No sunlight for me in the mornings during winter. Thanks sweden. I have amazing terrariums though. With UVB light and I love to look into them and enjoy a piece of nature at home.

[@half-soul8393]

What's UVB light?

[@aurorasurrealis1032]

UVA and UVB create a lightspectrum that is close to natural sunlight. Especially the UVB light is used in light therapy for those who suffer of seasonal depressions. It's like having a little bit of sunlight inside your home. 🤗

[@rymaru2138]

For me, it is at times the opposite. Watching KZbin videos winds me down and I get sleepy. While reading gets me too stimulated, and planning for the next day is too stressful. And I can try to change my sleep schedule all I want, but just two or so days if it gets messed up I'm back on the night shift again.

[@SleepyDogg]

I've been there for years. My best advice is to have a sleep and wake alarm. If you're awake past your sleep alarm. Keep your wake alarm the same consistently. Overtime you'll be forced to sleep an appropriate time before your wake alarm. Also, as the video says, don't stimulate your mind with exciting videos. Try meditation or if you really have to watch something. Watch soothing videos like ASMR.

[@blueicer101]

It definitely depends on the youtube video and it depends on the book. It also depends on the person. If it's entertainment it may wind you down, it it's technical or difficult content it might stimulate you. This can obviously be backwards for some personality types. It's good though to have a sleep tracker or some objective way to measure your sleep quality or time asleep because we obviously can't judge how well we slept when we are sleeping. We can only judge our mornings which really depends on the sleep phase we wake up in, so it's not an accurate measurement.

[@JS-ld2qd]

I'm going to manage my sleep now to have it on point once and for all now. Thanks for this and other videos you have. I hate and am done with feeling lethargic, tired, drained all day. I'm going to give myself sunlight in the morning and TURN ON THE LIGHTS in my room and bathroom.

[@KORTOKtheSTRONG]

you reminded me about lowering the temperature; i've been getting too hot and dehydrated while i sleep lately

[@matthewwitherford]

I can tell you after following this video, i am now onto day 120 in a row of getting up early and going to bed early thanks to the tips on your channel. I will give my two cents below: 1 - Sticking to the same sleeping pattern 7 days a week really does make it much easier 2 - Track your habits with the Habit hub app and build your streaks 3 - Cut down on Caffeine, i am also on day 120 in a row of having no more than 2 Coffee's per day, if you think your large caffeine intake is not ruining your sleep, your dead wrong let me tell you. 4 - Place your alarm clock on the other side of your room and next to the alarm clock have a flask full of water, as soon as you get out of bed and turn off your alarm clock drink the water straight away, drinking the water will stimulate your brain and hydrate you waking you up. 5 - After drinking the water, lightly pace up and down your bedroom, this gets blood flowing through your body and helps you wake up as well. 6 - Get a sun light alarm clock and place it next to your bed, have this go off about 5-10 mins before the alarm clock on the other side of your room, the light from it makes for a more pleasant experience waking up. The main thing i have found is that from you waking up and wanting to go back to sleep vs your brain accepting you are awake and you don't need to go back to bed you have a 2 minute window and it's what you do in those 2 minutes that makes a huge difference. Doing number 4 and 5 that i have mentioned in that 2 minute window will help you massively. All these things worked for me after battling poor sleep and struggling to get out of bed early for years, now it's effortless. The most important thing to remember is to stay patient it doesn't happen over night (no pun intended) if you mess up just start again and keep starting again until you get it.

[@xxdrowssapxx1]

I definitely already do loads of exercise. Can confirm this works. For electronics, blue light filters help a lot.

[@danielyeshe]

Any chance you could make a video on this topic for those who work shifts? My normal shift pattern makes a regular bedtime impossible. Also how might all this be adapted for living in a one room flat? Thanks.

[@shaggybg]

Thank you for sharing these tips, especially the trick with the hot bath ~1hour before bed. I will also remember to meditate when my mind is not calm and I try to sleep. I usually do it anyway for about 2 minutes - maybe it is enough for me and helps, combined with the wind-down routine, which I have in the last 1 hour before my sleep schedule. Sunlight in the morning is tough sometimes, especially in winter, but having all lights on in my home is an alternative. I also do exercises first thing in the morning and it helps a lot. I found myself the need for a colder bedroom, and having the bed for sleep only. But I have difficulties for tip #8 - my bedroom is not dark enough (the room, where I work, is usually darker), and not quiet enough. I need to work on this in order to have better sleep. :) I didn't know that skin can also get light and send signals to the brain about it...

#5 - I freeze gel paks in the freezer and toss a couple of them into bed with me, arranging them so they're close to me but not touching me. A person could also wrap gel paks in cotton woven fabrics (like quilting material) and then place them close in the bed.

4. Use your bed for sleep only. Whoever said that never lived in a tiny studio apartment without a chair. You eat, watch youtube videos, read, write, love your boyfriend, and enjoy your peace away from the family without the roommate to anoy you, all while on the bed. My bed is next to the table, which has a wall on the two other sides, and a door that opens to the tiny bathroom on the third. Instead of a closet I have shelves above my bed. The kitchen is across the room from the bed. The whole apartment is 14 m2 and I love it. I am just on my bed all the time. I sleep better there than when I am home.

i always find difficult to fall asleep coz of racing mind even though i went to bed around 10 actually i fall asleep 11, 11:30 . Yes medidation help alot but it should sit for like 1 hr or at least 20 min to calm your mind and not to think. We should go to bed same time everyday and wake up that's core habit to embrace for quality of sleep .

Would you mind sharing those products here? I've never heard of a weighted blanket. Do you have a cooling mattress or a topper? Thanks.

[@eric5280]

@@DonyaLane I bought them both on ebay.. Weighted blanket was a generic brand but something like this: www.amazon.com/YnM-Weighted-Blanket-Cotton-Material/dp/B07343DK69 and the mattress cooler: www.amazon.com/Mattress-Cooler-Classic-Chilled-Cooling/dp/B07KPLB2FP/ Re: Weighted blanket, normally 10% of your weight is recommended but I went with the heaviest I could find. Basically it feels like you're hugged by your bed because the pressure from the mattress up and the weighted blanket down kind of feels like uniform force on your body from both sides. Re: Mattress cooler, Cools incredibly fast and well.. Considerations is how it feels under the mattress sheet.. it kind of feels like a deflated air mattress in texture and cools by cooling water and circulating it through the mattress topper. The water gives you the sensation that you're wet in a way but really not. Anyways, hoped that helped!

[@cacatr4495]

Eating half as much for lunch might help, and doing a bit of exercise to get your energy activated again, may help you to be productive until the sun goes down. When we eat more, we can often get sleepy. Moving around, stretching, taking a walk, exercise, gets our blood moving, our heart pumping faster and our brain active again.

This comment is probably going to get lost in the void but, the activities (besides listening to music) you suggest to wind down sound way more stimulating than watching TV/movies.

[@donaldthompson5144]

This advice made several egregious omissions the foremost being to avoid blue light after the sun sets. Blue light frequencies from fake light and screens will destroy the melatonin produced earlier in the day. Wear blue blocker glasses when awake at night and sleep in a room as dark as possible.
