Quality sleep begins with the creation of a regular evening mode. According to the Research Institute of Child Psychology and Pathopsychology (VÚDPAP), it is also important to easily dine, sleep at a suitable temperature and in a quiet environment, as well as limit the time in front of the screens. The Research Institute informed about it on the social network.

Equally important is the calm environment. Before bedtime It helps to mute the lights, ventilate, put aside disturbing stimuli. They pointed out that the bedroom should be a safe and soothing space for relaxation.
VÚDPAP also points out that at least an hour before bedtime it is good to limit your phone, computer and television and give the brain time to silence. “Stimula and above all interactive content and blue light unnecessarily activate it and worsen falling asleep,” reminded.
As he added, long -term lack of sleep affects mood, attention and memory. It increases the risk of chronic stress, anxiety, exhaustion and burnout. “Sleep is not a luxury. It’s the key to mental well -being,” emphasized VÚDPAP.
