Why Sleep Hygiene?
Sleep hygiene remains the first best step we all should consider when fixing our sleep problems.So many of our sleep problems, when they aren't caused by medical conditions, are the result of the conditions we often create for ourselves.
The good news is, we can control many of these conditions and, by practicing good sleep hygiene, recreate our sleeping lives to capture good health again.
Poor sleep is implicated in so many chronic health problems, mental health and mood disorders, and daily risks while on the job or operating vehicles.
If you could improve your overall sense of health and well being by sleeping more and better, why wouldn't you?
