Sweet Dreams: 7 Tips To Getting The Best Sleep Of Your Life

After a long and taxing day, all you want to do is lie down and sleep on your warm and soft bed. However, there are times when you can’t quickly fall asleep. There are a lot of factors why you can’t sleep, such as unpleasant odor, distracting noises, or overthinking about problems.

Getting enough sleep at night is essential. If you don’t get quality sleep, you won’t have the energy for the next day. Here are some nifty tips to help you sleep better at night so you can wake up refreshed in the morning.

1. Turn off Appliances and Gadgets

The light from the screen can distract you, making it harder for you to fall asleep. Turn off your TV and other appliances at least an hour before you go to sleep. Don’t place your phone near you because you might get tempted to keep using it and you’ll sleep later than your usual sleeping time.

2. Avoid Late Afternoon Naps

It’s okay to take naps, but do it in the earlier part of the day. If you sleep in the afternoon, you’ll feel awake at night. If you feel sleepy during the afternoon, do something to wake yourself up like taking a short walk or talking to somebody.

3. Schedule your Sleeping time

Allot 7 hours per day for sleeping, but don’t sleep for more than 8 hours. Set a schedule for your sleeping time. Try to wake up and sleep at the same time every day even on weekends. If you have a hard time falling asleep, do something relaxing such as listening to music.

Skateboarding and Longboarding on and Around Campus

Even though alternative transportation is rampant on Whitman’s small campus, only a handful of Whitman students skateboard. Whether longboarding to class or skating for leisure, those who own boards on campus represent a small fraction of the student body. Whitman’s campus isn’t exactly ideal for the sport. For skateboarding you mainly just need an open, rarely frequented area with various obstacles and terrain. If there is a skatepark nearby, obviously that is a large draw, but for Whitman students, the nearest park is in College Place. On campus, skaters use the small area outside of Olin Hall or can be seen behind North Hall practicing tricks.
