Do you go to bed at the same time each night? Or are you staying up late watching TV or scrolling on your phone?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s important to go to sleep and wake at consistent times to help your body develop a good sleep habit. If you find that you don\u2019t have a standard routine or schedule that you follow each night, create one! Plan out your evening so you know what time you have to brush your teeth and crawl in bed to get enough sleep.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid Screens\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The blue light from your screen can disrupt your body\u2019s natural circadian rhythm. Circadian rhythms are our body\u2019s 24-hour internal clock that lets your body know when it\u2019s time to complete certain functions. If this rhythm is off, that could be part of your sleeping troubles. To help reset your circadian rhythm, try avoiding blue light before going to bed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try New Tools<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If changing your routine and avoiding blue light isn\u2019t helping, find different tricks or tools to help your body unwind. Swap an uncomfortable pillow for something more supportive or use a weighted blanket. Before bed, drink a caffeine-free tea or take a warm, relaxing bath.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Limit Daytime Naps<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are you a big napper during the day? An irregular sleeping pattern can cause you trouble sleeping at night. If you\u2019re taking a longer nap during the day and are having trouble sleeping at night, swap your long nap for a power nap or skip that nap althgoether. That way, your body is ready for sleep when you crawl in bed at night.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meet With an ENT Specialists<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your trouble sleeping might be signs of another problem, like sleep apnea or snoring issues. If that\u2019s the case, you\u2019ll want to meet with an ear, nose, and throat doctor for professional support.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visit Our Ear, Nose, and Throat Doctor Today!<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ready to meet with an ear, nose, and throat about your sleeping problems?
