China registered dietitian

When the connection between bed and awake becomes stronger, you may wake up as soon as you lie in bed, as if you remember everything. The final tragedy is: chronic insomnia .
get up decisively if you can’t sleep. But two things are best not to do: browse your phone and watch the time. After getting up, you can read a book, listen to light music or white noise, and go to the balcony to see the stars.
