How hungry are you when you go to bed?
By hungry, I mean having built up enough sleep pressure that causes signs of sleepiness, rather than just tiredness.
Yawning 🥱, a drooping head, eyelids heavy...those are signs that sleep is close.
By going to bed before having signs of sleepiness, you are training your body even further to associate your bed with lying awake, tossing and turning.
The best way to spend less time in ned, and more time with quality sleep is to start properly tracking your sleep-related behaviours.
Até já, big hug from Portugal.
