A restful sleep? Many dream of it, but do not know what to do to achieve it. Here are six things that could be keeping you from sleeping well, and some ways to fix them.


Nothing is more precious than a deep and restorative sleep… To do this, it is essential to arrange one's environment to encourage the mind and body to relax in order to promote good sleep.

Here are six things that could be keeping you from sleeping well, and how to fix them.

Objects that prevent you from sleeping well

What may seem obvious is however rarely applied: electronic objects are indeed the bane of a restful sleep.

Exit therefore smartphones, even positioned in offline mode and which give off harmful electromagnetic waves, computers and television in the bedroom before sleeping.

Mirrors, because they reflect the slightest ounce of light, are also to be avoided so as not to interfere with a saving rest.

The ticking of an alarm clock can also be particularly disturbing and insidiously disturb occupants' sleep. Choosing a silent alarm clock can thus save nights.

Finally, nothing like reading before bed to promote good sleep.

A good habit to take to replace the sacrosanct TV session in the evening.

The importance of choosing and orienting bedroom furniture

The bed is the centerpiece for promoting good sleep.

A quality bed, large enough, a stable bed base and a mattress that is neither too soft nor too hard will therefore be preferred so as not to spend restless nights.

The positioning and orientation of the bed are also very important.

It is therefore necessary to avoid placing the bed in the door/window axis, because it would then be vulnerable to drafts.

Similarly, the headboard should be placed against a wall, and the sides of the bed cleared to promote relaxation, and therefore a peaceful night.

According to Feng Shui precepts, the art of arranging your interior to harmonize the different elements, the head should be placed in the north to allow good sleep.

In addition, a bedroom overloaded with large furniture also prevents you from sleeping well.

Here, the mode of order is minimalism, and it is therefore necessary to purify the space as much as possible.

An untidy bedroom is just as bad for sleep.

Finally, it is important not to overload the wall opposite the bed: the idea here is to affix a painting or any element that the sleeper will enjoy seeing when he wakes up.

Brightness: detrimental to rest

The luminosity, or the light in general, arrives in the top three of the "pests" for a peaceful sleep.

And this, whether it is the indicator lights of the various electronic devices that have remained on standby, the light of the Moon, that of dawn or outdoor lighting.

For exterior lights, whether natural or artificial, perfectly blackout curtains and/or shutters will be the solution to adopt to counter these "little things" that do a lot... For technological/electrical objects, as mentioned above, they are simply to be banished from the room, or to be unplugged urgently when evening arrives.

Various noises that interfere with sleep

Noise can also cause restless nights.

In particular, pets (to be left outside the bedroom at night), insects during the summer period (place here for a mosquito net of choice), but also… the snoring of the possible spouse .e.

In the latter case, pharmaceutical or medical solutions exist!

Other factors that prevent you from sleeping well

Stress or even food (overly rich dinners or the consumption of stimulants in the evening, such as coffee, tea or alcohol) inexorably promote poor quality sleep.

Bach flowers, essential oil diffusers will be good ways to soothe the mind.

Meditation or yoga, methods that have been widely proven, too.
