Top 12 Sleep Ruining Activities

 

7. Take Certain Medications

If you’re supposed to take meds before bed, you should. But some prescription drugs can keep you from getting quality sleep, and some over-the-counter medications are loaded with stimulants. Check with your doctor about what you’re taking and when before you change or stop any medication.

8. Exercise Around Bedtime

Though exercise is good for your sleep, exercising too close to bedtime can ruin it. It doesn’t happen to everyone, but if that sounds like you, try to finish up your workout at least 3 hours before you go to bed.
