Sleep hygiene is a collection of behaviours and environmental conditions that
aim to ensure a restorative and good quality sleep and to avoid or treat
certain sleep disorders.
Healthy sleep habits or behaviours that may help improve the ability to fall
asleep and remain asleep through the night.
Establishing and practising good sleep hygiene throughout the day impacts
both the quality and quantity of sleep you get each night.

Continuing with the sleep advice, we have to remember that this depends a
great deal on learned habits and sometimes it is better to respect these habits
unless they are very disruptive than try to change them.
Don’t have to change everything at once; small steps can move toward better
sleep hygiene.
It’s also important to know that improving sleep hygiene won’t always resolve
sleeping problems, but other treatments are usually necessary as well.
