Sleep is a much underrated activity nowadays. Many people do not realize that sleep is vital if you want to be productive, energized, mentally sharp, physically ready, and emotionally fit. Quantity of sleep is not the only thing that matters because the quality of your sleep matters a lot too. Below are some tips that will help you have a better quality of sleep.

  • Regular bedtime. Going to bed at the same time every night will help your body to be prepared when you want to sleep already. This reduces unnecessary tossing and turning that could keep you awake instead of asleep. This applies to your wake-up time as well. A regular wake-up time is better for your body.
  • Naps. These are great ways to make up for lost hours during the night. Sometimes there are some factors that require to stay up on some nights or to wake up early on some mornings. A nap would help you catch up so that your regular bedtime routine will not be disrupted.
  • Comfortable bedding. Although luxury bedding would definitely help, it is not a requirement. Just make sure that you have a comfortable sleeping area.
  • Keep the room dark and noise-free. It can be a bit difficult to sleep if your senses are overloaded.

Down sides of attending too many weddings

Getting invited to a lot of weddings has its good points, but it has its down sides as well.

Running out of clothes to wear

If the couples getting married belong to the same crowd, then most of the guests in one wedding are also the same guests in the other weddings. When this happens, you can’t wear the same thing on all the weddings you’re attending. This is the reason why people, more especially women, start running out of clothes/dresses to wear.

Running out of gift ideas

The more weddings you attend, the faster you run out of gift ideas, especially if you’re the type that doesn’t like giving the same gifts to different people. In fact, there was actually a time when my husband and I were seriously considering feather flags and custom flags as gifts for the newlyweds.

Too much good food with bad effects

Since wedding ceremonies are usually followed by sumptuous (but often sinful) foods, you can’t help but eat a lot of the not-so-healthy stuff. I mean, who wouldn’t? Aside from the fact that the food is free, weddings usually serve treats that you don’t often get to eat a lot of. That’s why a lot of people gorge themselves during this merry occasion.
