The power of information lies in how you use it. Our goal is to use information from our annual sleep survey to empower you to make positive changes to your daily routine that will enable a better night’s sleep and begin to prioritize sleep.
Suggestions from our sleep experts include:
Understand and acknowledge the ways that lack of sleep impacts all facets of life – work, relationships, productivity
Only 53% of people agree that they have a good understanding of what prevents them from getting good sleep
Build a bedtime routine and maintain it
Only 30% of people currently have a set bedtime/wake-up schedule
Identify the various factors that might be contributing to your sleep troubles and researching your options and/or consulting a physician to address them
Worry/stress, relationships, and cell phone use were reported as the top barriers to good sleep in 2020
Use technology strategically. Research and identify tech that can positively impact your sleep (such as sleep therapy, or sleep aid devices), but disconnect from phones and screens at least 30 minutes before bedtime, preferably sleeping without them by your side
Nearly three-quarters (74%) of people use their cell phone in bed, 39% admit to using it right before falling asleep.
