March is the month that recognizes the health benefits of sleep. Not getting enough sleep or poor - quality sleep can increase your risk of health problems such as cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, depression and obesity. It has also been linked to memory problems, forgetfulness, and more falls and / or accidents.
 
Aim for 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night.
 
Here are 6 tips for getting a good night's sleep:
*Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day.
*Find ways to relax before bedtime each night.
* Avoid distractions such as cell phones, computers, and television in your bedroom
*Don't eat large meals or drink caffeine or alcohol late in the day.
*Exercise at regular time each day, but not within 3 hours of bedtime.
*Avoid long naps (over 30 minutes) in the late afternoon or early evening.
