Are you waking up too often in the night or suffer from insomnia? Some sleep monitoring devices can even combine your data with health information using cognitive behavioral therapy. Devices such as the SleepRate system can display your entire day of activity and suggest possible ways to fix the issues in your sleep cycle.
Depending on your sleep pattern, a monitoring app or device can provide advice like the following:
- Wake up the same time every morning
- Increase exposure to natural light throughout daytime hours
- Avoid caffeine after 4pm
- Decrease napping
- Dim lights near bedtime
- Don’t bring laptops, ipads, and other backlit devices to bed
- Avoid alcohol close to bedtime
- Relieve anxiety with stretching or deep breathing exercises
