- Action: People who exercise tend to have more restful sleep. Exercising for at least 30 minutes three times a week can improve your sleep. So, get moving! Go for a walk or a run.

Exercising less than two hours before bedtime can actually interfere with sleep.
- Action: Try doing something to relax your body and mind before going to bed. Try taking a hot bath 90 minutes before you plan to go to bed. Or, try a relaxation exercise (see Calm Breathing and Progressive Muscle Relaxation), meditation, or listening to calming music.
