Sleep Good Night!

Ask Glen!

Q. Glen, Could getting a good night's sleep be as simple as changing your pillow?

A. The first step to getting a goodnight's sleep is getting comfortable.

Could getting a good night's sleep be as simple as changing your pillow? If pain is keeping you up, making your bed as comfortable as possible is key. If your pillow's too soft or hard or isn't the right height, it could put your head at an awkward angle and cause even more pain. So it's important to experiment to find the right fit for you. There are other ways to create a restful environment for sleep, too:

Keep your bedroom cool. If the temperature is too hot or cold, it may disrupt sleep. Most experts say that a slightly cool room can contribute to good sleep.

Block the noise. Heavy curtains, double-pane windows, and rugs will help absorb the noise. And when all else fails, there are always ear-plugs.

Avoid bright clocks. Position your clock where you can't see it. Watching the time pass when you can't fall asleep can cause extra anxiety. And the extra light doesn't help, either.
