World Sleep Day

At Philips, we believe sleep is the key to a great day.

 

With so many potential factors impacting a good night’s rest, Philips aims to help people across the globe understand not only the value of sleep, but how to start improving their sleep habits.

What steps can you take to improve your sleep?

The power of information lies in how you use it. Our goal is to use information from our annual sleep survey to empower you to make positive changes to your daily routine that will enable a better night’s sleep and begin to prioritize sleep.

Suggestions from our sleep experts include:

Understand and acknowledge the ways that lack of sleep impacts all facets of life – work, relationships, productivity

Only 53% of people agree that they have a good understanding of what prevents them from getting good sleep

Build a bedtime routine and maintain it

Only 30% of people currently have a set bedtime/wake-up schedule

Identify the various factors that might be contributing to your sleep troubles and researching your options and/or consulting a physician to address them

Worry/stress, relationships, and cell phone use were reported as the top barriers to good sleep in 2020

Use technology strategically. Research and identify tech that can positively impact your sleep (such as sleep therapy, or sleep aid devices), but disconnect from phones and screens at least 30 minutes before bedtime, preferably sleeping without them by your side

Nearly three-quarters (74%) of people use their cell phone in bed, 39% admit to using it right before falling asleep.
