• The recommended amount of sleep varies by age, with adults needing 7-9 hours, teenagers needing 8-10 hours, and children needing 9-13 hours.
• Consistency in sleep schedule and routine is key for good sleep quality.
• Creating a sleep-friendly environment, free from distractions and with optimal temperature and lighting, can improve sleep.
• Limiting technology use before bed and practicing calming rituals can help prepare the body for sleep.
