Top tips from Chenot Palace Weggis to optimise sleep
Fight off ‘Coronasomni’
Following a whirlwind, turbulent year, an increasing number of people are reporting sleep disturbances as a result of the pandemic, which some doctors have coined ‘Coronasomni,’ causing negative impacts on people’s daily lives. To help combat this issue, Europe’s latest and most advanced medi-spa, Chenot Palace Weggis, offer their top tips on improving your quality of sleep.
Healthy sleep is essential to achieve both mental and physical well-being, with huge repercussions on your productivity, quality of life and eating habits. If you sleep less than 7 hours a day, struggle to fall asleep, wake up in the middle of night, or wake up feeling lethargic, unproductive or confused, your sleep schedule is in need of improvement. Experts in the field of wellbeing, Chenot Palace Weggis suggest the following 3 tips for a better night’s sleep:
1. Be consistent with your schedule
• As creatures of habit, going to bed and waking up at the same time gives your body some reference for when to be active and when to calm down
• In addition, fixed habits close to bedtime, such as switching off electronics 30-60 minutes before bed, reading, meditation or stretching can aid you in becoming as precise as a Swiss clock
2. Introduce some healthy daily habits
• Get as much sunlight exposure as possible to kickstart your Circadian Rhythm (inner biological clock) and keep active throughout the day
• Quit smoking and decrease your alcohol and caffeine intake
3. Create your perfect bedroom environment
• The atmosphere you create can greatly influence your sleep quality, both at the beginning and during the night
• Ensure you have the right mattress and pillow and that your room is dark, quiet and cool (around 18° C)
In addition, Chenot Palace Weggis will soon be launching their very own sleep rooms with high tech Sleeping Technology. Acoustics, light, and bed linen technologies which revert body heat back into energy, have been scientifically interwoven with interior design and architecture to create a natural sleeping environment that provides a truly optimised, restful sleep. If you have any questions or would like additional information, we would love to arrange a Q&A with Dr. George Gaitanos, Chief Operating and Scientific Officer of Chenot, to discuss further insights on this topic.
