Even those who don't have sleep problems can't always claim to have restful sleep. Many still wake up tired or feel like they're not in top shape even after an 8-hour night!
What is restful sleep?
It is "a good quality sleep, which allows you to recover sufficiently and to feel fit in the morning when you wake up". If you wake up tired, have periods of sleepiness during the day and are irritable, your sleep is not of good quality.
Is it time to change your mattress?
If you're not sleeping well, waking up often during the night or having back pain, it may be time to change your mattress. It is important to change mattresses regularly to ensure proper support and comfort for the body. Experts generally recommend replacing a mattress every 7 to 10 years.
It is also important to consider the physical condition of your mattress. If you notice any depressions or lumps, it may be time for a new mattress. If your mattress is damaged or worn out, it will no longer be able to provide the support and comfort needed for a good night's sleep.
Our tips to make sleep more restful
Learn to know your sleep needs
The need for sleep varies from one person to another, not everyone needs 8 hours of sleep. Based on your experience, determine how much sleep is good for you and what time is best for you to go to bed and wake up.
Maintain a regular sleep schedule
Once you've determined what time you should go to bed and what time you wake up feeling great, stick to those schedules! Some people feel sick on the weekends or have a headache because they get up later, in which case get up at the usual time and take a nap after lunch.
Get on the sleep train
If you feel sleepy, yawn, fall asleep on your book or in front of the TV, put on comfortable pajamas and go to bed! Pay attention to the signs your body is sending you. There's no point in fighting it, because once the sleep train passes, it's much harder to fall asleep!

Take a short nap after lunch
Don't think that napping in the afternoon prevents you from sleeping at night, but be careful, the nap should be short, between 5 and 20 minutes, and should be taken right after lunch. A nap that is too long or too late can interfere with falling asleep at night.
