Dr. Alex Jimenez describes sleep hygiene as a variety of different habits which are often necessary to achieve a proper quality of sleep in order to rise with full daytime alertness. Sleep is essential towards an individual’s mental and physical health and well-being because it plays an important role in the body’s natural healing and repairing functions. In addition to this, without proper sleep, the human body is more susceptible to cravings and unhealthy eating patterns. The most important sleep hygiene measure is to maintain regular sleeping patterns. According to Dr. Jimenez, heavy meals before bed, caffeine or alcohol before bed, and even improper sleeping postures accompanied by pain and discomfort, can be frequent poor sleep hygiene practices that can interfere with the sleep quality of many individuals. Health coaching can help individuals learn to give their body restorative rest while chiropractic care aids in the body in healing and pain relief. The various articles pertaining to sleep and sleep hygiene can help provide a useful insight towards improving sleep and overall health.
