How to increase sleep quality?

Even if I get 7-8 hours of sleep, I sometimes wake up feeling exhausted. My sleep tracker shows I toss and turn a lot. What can I do to improve my overall sleep quality?

I used to toss and turn all night until my doctor caught my thyroid issue. If your sleep quality is really bad, please get a thyroid profile test done. Getting my hormone levels sorted with proper medical advice completely changed my sleep.

Does anyone else feel completely exhausted but the moment you lie down, your brain just won't shut off? I tried keeping my phone away but it still takes me hours to fall asleep. Is this normal or should I seek professional help?

Honestly, eating a heavy dinner with too much spicy biryani right before bed was ruining my sleep. Now I try to eat light by 8 PM so my stomach isn't working overtime while I'm trying to rest. It actually works wonders!

My grandmother always advised drinking warm milk with a pinch of turmeric before bed, which is very soothing. However, if your sleep doesn't improve, please talk to your doctor. A proper checkup is always best for chronic sleeplessness.

I know exactly how draining it is to wake up tired every single day; it really messes with your mental health. Try not to force yourself to sleep, as that anxiety makes it worse. Start with small changes like a dark, cool room and reading a book instead of scrolling.

Keep your bedroom super cozy and try a quick 5-minute deep breathing session before sleeping! 🌸 Also, avoiding tea or coffee after 4 PM worked like magic for me. Sweet dreams!

I used to panic thinking I have some major insomnia disorder when I had a few bad nights. Eventually, I realized it was just stress from work. Once I started walking for 30 minutes in the evening and relaxed, my sleep naturally got back on track.
