All people need to sleep. Sleeping is a restorative (恢复体力的) process that shapes better body functions and can improve the quality of your life. Not only is the quantity of sleep important, but also the quality of sleep.
Your bedroom should be shaped to your taste and to allow you to sleep in a peaceful environment. One of the biggest mistakes people make in their sleep is to use their bedroom for activities other than sleep. If your bedroom is also used as a place for your life and work, you will probably have a poor sleep. Bedrooms should be designed and used for sleep mainly. TVs, computers and other things should not be in your bedroom at all if possible.
The regular sleeping and waking times can help improve the quality of your sleep especially for those suffering from sleeplessness. Avoid hot food, caffeine, sugar and alcohol at least 4 to 6 hours before your sleep time. Develop a regular exercise programme. Proper exercise and healthy food will help improve sleeping quality. However, avoid exercising 2 hours before sleeping, since this may keep your body exciting and make sleeping more difficult.
A pre-bedtime rule will help you focus on sleep. You can try meditation (沉思), reading or deep breathing and relaxation. Your bedtime rule should be yours. Do not worry about it fitting into a special style. Do what is the best for you.
Things such as room temperature, noise and light levels and even your bed itself can have a lot of effect on the quality of sleep that you experience. Cut down the annoying noises and lights. You are in your bedroom to sleep and not be distracted (干扰) by environment.
About the importance of health, nobody can explain (good) than your doctor. They are the people really know the importance of keeping fit. Every time I put on an extra pound, my doctor will remind me about is happening these days in my body. We may look well, but we don't know (clear) what is going on inside.
And there are many different ways we can make sure that we are as (health) inside as we are outside. The (one) and easiest step is keeping a good and balanced diet. Next is sleeping well and sleeping early. Make sure you get your nine (hour) sleep. Do not skip your breakfast. It is one of the most important (meal) of a day. Exercise every day. Go for a swim, or walk, or play football or tennis. Try your best not to have too much stress it's very harmful to your health.
