Having a good sleep is necessary for our health. I want to suggest a few activities which are helpful for a good sleep. First, there should be a gap of at least 2 hours between dinner and sleep. Do exercise after dinner and before going to bed wash your face and specially feet.

GREAT points.  Also:

a) Make sure your room is pitch black, especially NO blue lights from alarm clock or cell phone, etc (blue lights decreases your natural melatonin “sleep hormone” production).

b) Don’t drink caffeine in the afternoon or evening.

c) Be careful not to nap too long, if you must nap at all. 

d) To not have the need to nap and overdo it, eat a light lunch with no sweets.  Try to eat more alkaline foods, and less acidic foods during the daytime.  For more info on alkaline foods, see the links below.

Hi there, to get a good sleep don’t take nap at day time so you have better sleep at night. If you are sick, it is worth the cost to take the day off and head to a doctor. Doctors are prepared and prepared for you to come in, and it could help you get healthy much faster.
