May 08, 2009 The Sleep Makeover With Sleep Tips You Can Use!

 

Sleeping seems to get more and more difficult for thousands of women all over the country. With the added anxieties of work, family and a dwindling economy, the hours we spend asleep are lessening and the amount of exhaustion and frustration is growing. The Masthead of Marie Claire gets to the bottom of America's sleeplessness and adds advice and much needed incite as to how to get a good night's rest.

 

If you’re having trouble falling asleep, you’re in good company. An estimated 65% of Americans said they encounter sleep problems a few nights each week, according to a recent study by the National Sleep Foundation .

 

Sleeping too little is linked with an increased risk for obesity and depression. But before you reach for a sleep aid from the nearest pharmacy, it’s worth reexamining your nighttime routine. Some of your favorite evening rituals could be responsible for that tossing and turning.

 

Go From Night Owl to Early Bird (and Get the Worm!)

Who says bedtime is just for kids? Take lots of care to maintain a sleeping schedule, especially on the weekends. Your body likes to routines, and needs to keep one. If your bedtime is random—11 pm some nights, 1 a.m. others—your mind won’t be well prepared to snooze during the work week.
