I was a bad sleeper. I often had trouble falling asleep, I was easily woken up because I wasn’t sleeping deeply, I tossed and turned, and I woke up tired, sometimes with headaches, even after a long night’s sleep. Over the past year, I have slowly adjusted every aspect of how I slept, from the bed itself to the climate, sound, and lights in my room, and ultimately solved most of my sleep problems. Here's everything I recommend, based on a variety of sleep-related challenges.
