This guide, "A Senior's Guide to Better Sleep", highlights that good sleep is vital for your overall health and well-being, just as important as eating, drinking, and breathing.

It’s a common but incorrect belief that older adults need less sleep. In fact, seniors aged 65 and older still need seven to nine hours of sleep each night.

The guide explains how sleep patterns can change as you age, including shifts in your body clock and how seniors have lighter, more easily disrupted sleep.

It also outlines common sleep disorders affecting seniors, such as Insomnia, Sleep Apnoea, Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS), and Periodic Limb Movement Disorder (PLMD).

You'll find practical advice on creating an ideal sleep environment by focusing on darkness, quiet, and a comfortable bed.

This guide also covers building a healthy bedtime routine with relaxing activities and relaxation techniques.

Finally, it discusses the role of lifestyle factors like diet, hydration, exercise, and daytime naps in achieving better sleep.

It is important to remember, if you consistently have trouble sleeping, don't hesitate to talk to your doctor.

This guide aims to empower you to achieve more restful nights and healthier, more vibrant days.
