As summer arrives, many women look forward to vacations and outdoor adventures. However, warmer weather can also disrupt sleep patterns, leaving you feeling fatigued during the day.

Here are some summer sleep strategies to help you get the restful and rejuvenating sleep you need.

Adjust your sleep environment by using blackout curtains or shades to block out extra sunlight. Establishing a consistent bedtime routine can also help signal to your body that it’s time to wind down and prepare for sleep. Even though the sun may still be shining outside, try to maintain a regular sleep schedule by going to bed and waking up at the same time every day, including on weekends.

Staying hydrated is crucial for maintaining good sleep quality during the sweltering summer season. Be sure to drink an ample amount of water throughout the day to stay hydrated and support optimal sleep.

Create a comfortable sleep environment by using breathable bedding materials, such as cotton sheets and lightweight blankets. Consider using a cooling mattress topper or a fan to keep the room cool. If the heat is keeping you awake, try practicing relaxation techniques to help you wind down.

Deep breathing exercises, progressive muscle relaxation, and meditation can all help calm your mind and body, making it easier to fall asleep.

Regular physical activity during the day can also help you sleep better at night. However, avoid vigorous exercise close to bedtime, as it can stimulate your body and make it harder to fall asleep. Aim to get regular exercise during the cooler parts of the day, such as an early morning or late evening, to avoid overheating and promote better sleep at night.
