Greatest factors contributing to deep and overall sleep increase tested on myself, sorted from more to less prominent and repeatable:
1. Don't eat or drink _anything_ except water at least 2-3h before bed
2. No alcohol or caffeine after noon.
3. Starting a sleep earlier, rather than later at night
4. Physical activity not too late (to leave >2h before bed), so that you feel tired
5. Low stress and relaxed mood as early as possible before bed
6. Dark room
7. Quiet room
8. No screens at least 1h before bed
- m463 2y agogood list - Set an alarm for bedtime. - Decaf coffee is not caffeine free. - cold room (bedroom too warm, toss and turn at night) - earplugs - check sleep apnea (even young or skinny people have it)
- swah 2y agoThe temperature cold be a big factor, I remember sleeping very well with AC all night. OTOH I like fresh air, but then you get some light in from moon, lights from the street, and maybe the bit of wind stops at 3am...
