Summer brings with it long sunny days and high temperatures, but also can hinder our night rest. Hot nights can make falling asleep a challenge. In S’Horta Pharmacy we want to help you sleep better in summer. That’s why we offer you these Tips to maintain a restful sleep and enjoy an optimal rest during the summer:
Keep your room cool
During the day, keep the blinds or curtains closed to prevent the sun from heating up your room. At night, open the windows to let in fresh air and ventilate the room.
Use appropriate bedding
Opt for sheets and pillowcases made of cotton or breathable materials, which allow better air circulation and help you stay cool at night. Avoid synthetic materials that can retain heat.
Take cool showers before bed
A cool shower before going to bed can help reduce the feeling of heat and relax your body to fall asleep more easily.
Avoid heavy meals before bed
Heavy, large meals can hinder digestion and cause discomfort when sleeping. Try to eat dinner at least two hours before you go to bed and stick to light meals.
Disconnect from electronic devices
The blue light emitted by electronic devices such as phones and tablets can affect melatonin production, the sleep hormone. Try to unplug from these devices at least an hour before bed
By following these tips, you can improve the quality of your sleep and rest better during hot summer nights. At Farmacia S’Horta, we offer you products and advice to improve your rest and take care of your well-being.
