5 ways to improve your sleep (without medication)

Summary: Having trouble sleeping? You don't need pills to get a good night's rest. Experts say you can fall asleep faster and wake up feeling much better with a few simple habits. First, try listening to calming music before bed to relax your mind. Second, acupuncture can help lower your stress and improve your sleep quality. Third, cool your body down. Keeping your room around 68 degrees tells your brain it is time to sleep. Fourth, dim the lights and use blackout curtains so your body can make melatonin, a natural sleep hormone. Finally, keep your phone out of your bedroom! The blue light messes up your body's clock, and reading stressful news keeps you awake.
