We get away with pulling the occasional \\u2018all-nighter\\u2019 in our youth \\u2013 but our slapdash attitude toward sleep eventually causes problems. \\nYou don\\u2019t have to live like a monk for the rest of your life, but you do need to take action to ensure you establish, and maintain, sleep-friendly patterns and routines. \\nGiven what is at stake and given how wonderful you will feel when you are released from the nightmare of sleep deprivation, the required changes are not only easy but also simple to apply.\\n\"},{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"text\":\"2.\\tThe work ethic . The average person is working longer hours today than our counterparts a hundred years ago. \\nTechnology, automation, &#038; artificial intelligence have not allowed us to work less \\u2013 instead, they have led to us working longer, harder hours \\u2013 normally at the expense of healthy behaviours, especially those related to sleep. \\nChanging your attitude toward establishing great sleep routines, even at the expense of that extra couple of hours a night at work will actually make you even more productive, less prone to errors, less moody and stressed and better equipped to enjoy great sleep.\\n\"},{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"text\":\"3.\\tDevices with screens . We all know about the damage these devices cause to our ability to sleep &#8211; but how many of us take action to address the issue of excessive screen time, especially approaching bedtime? \\nThere are solutions to this issue which do not necessarily require you to ban your smart phone from your bedside or night-time routine, but they begin with the acknowledgement that change is necessary. \\nThe wonderful thing is the changes can be easy and enjoyable to apply.\\n\"},{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"text\":\"4.\\tStress. It\\u2019s considered by some to be a badge of honour, an outward indication to everyone who knows us that we have a hugely challenging career, overwhelming life responsibilities, and gargantuan demands on our time. \\nChanging our perception of stress is important \\u2013 especially as not all stress is bad. Our ancestors relied on it to deal with real, life endangering situations \\u2013 it had them be wary of venturing into certain areas with potentially dangerous wildlife or inhabitants. \\nStress only becomes a negative thing when it is triggered by fears that are not a threat to our survival. \\nWhether it is work worries, relationship issues, or money problems \\u2013 we don\\u2019t react to these with the fight or flight reaction as we would if we were in fear of being attacked by a wild animal &#8211; yet our central nervous system responds as if we should do and produces hormones accordingly. \\nAn ongoing state of stress hormone arousal can delay the onset of sleep and bring on anxiety at night. \\nFinding ways of handling the stresses and strains of life is important but it\\u2019s a well-trodden path and a thoroughly positive process. \\n\"},{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"text\":\"5.\\tAnxiety . Closely inter-related with stress, anxiety is becoming an ever-increasing issue across society in the 21st century. \\nWhereas stress is best defined as a physical response to external threats, anxiety is the mental state that can arise from stress, or from purely psychological worries. Dealing with stress and anxiety is important, quite aside from how it impacts negatively on our sleep. \\nBut like stress, anxiety in itself isn\\u2019t bad \\u2013 we need it to survive. \\nIt is the causes of anxiety and stress that are becoming increasingly harmful: human-made causes like work, social acceptance, aggressive social media, inadequate health and fitness, poor diet, and a host of behavioural issues and addictions. \\nTackle those \\u2013 and great sleep will follow. \\nLike most problems that seem insurmountable \\u2013 they become much less daunting if you have advice and guidance on how to address them positively rather than with a sense of trepidation and fear. \\nSomething that seemed really difficult can suddenly become ridiculously easy if you go about, it the right way.\\n\"},{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"text\":\"6.\\tDiet . The type of food &#038; drink we consume and even the time of day we choose to consume it has a massive impact on our sleep quality. \\nJunk food, sugary food, processed ready meals, starchy and processed carbohydrates all manipulate our blood sugar levels and can not only prevent sleep, but increase the number of times we wake up and reduce the amount of super-important \\u201cdeep sleep\\u201d we get. \\nIncreasingly studies into the relationship between diet and sleep are indicating that not only does poor diet have a detrimental effect on sleep, but poor sleep also has a detrimental effect on diet. \\nIt\\u2019s a vicious circle but once addressed \\u2013 excellent quality sleep beckons.\\n\"},{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"text\":\"7.\\tStimulants & addictions . All quite predictable really: caffeine, energy drinks, smoking, alcohol, &#038; prescription drugs can all detrimentally affect your sleep. \\nThe great news is that you do not have to forgo your morning coffee, never have alcohol, or even quit smoking to remedy your sleep issue \\u2013 you just need to understand the impact these things can have on your quality of sleep and take steps to prevent them doing so.\\n\"},{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"text\":\"8.\\tBedroom environment . We take it for granted and barely give it a second thought. \\nWe think that by keeping our bedroom nice and warm we\\u2019re enhancing our chances of achieving great sleep.
