Some other tips for a better night sleep 1. Limit caffeine consumption, it takes 6-8 hours to get the half of it out of your system. 2. Set realistic time to wake up not 5 am. 3. Controll lighting in the night time such as computers, mobile devices because your mind thinks that it is still moring. (Use blue light filter) 4. Darken your room as much as possible for a better melatonin production overnight. 5. DO NOT use mobile devices while you are in bed.

That's a really good, Sam. A lot of sleep scientists are trying to make changes in fields where there are long shifts and shift work. Most people (not all!) struggle to work well in these conditions.

We don’t deprive ourselves of sleep regularly because we want to…it’s because our minds and bodies cannot be trusted. We need an arbitrator.
