In the world of education, with many assignments and essays, sleep is a very overlooked factor in education. Better is sleep is shown to improve test scores. “Students who sleep better enjoy better grades, better recall, better mood, and better health.” Many students choose to cram information in their mind, but it may never be affective without proper sleep. When we sleep, we pass through various stages, including REM. If you cut your sleep short, you also reduce the amount of time spent in REM, which means you won’t experience restorative sleep. Here are some tips for better sleeping as a student!

Use Naps For A Study Break

Napping after learning a new topic can help improve your performance and memory, but don’t abuse the power of sleep as a way of procrastination. Limit your naps from anywhere to 20-30 minutes.

Create A Sleep Schedule 

Having a routine can create a feeling of consistency and improve your mental state. This will make you feel encouraged to be more productive with other work, since you have a constant schedule and it allows more time for other tasks to be done.

Have A Designated Study Area- Set The Mood

Many students study in their bedroom, but being in such a comfortable area can tempt you to get comfortable while studying then before you know it you’ll be putting your assignment off. Instead you should try to work in an office with lights at a desk.

When it comes to studying, sleep is your best friend, so start taking action now!
