The " Ideal" Sleep Environment
The " Ideal" Sleep EnvironmentSleep environment includes three aspects, First one is the bedroom environment; The second is the quilt environment; The third is the internal environment of the human body. A person's sleep environment can directly affect the quality of his sleep in a day, so a good sleep environment is necessary.
Dormitory environment includes eight points: location, color (walls and curtains), sound (including indoor sound and outdoor sound), light (indoor lighting, outdoor light, temperature, humidity, ventilation and others (mosquitoes, fleas, flies and other insects that hinder sleep).◪Color: blue and green are the colors of the sea and trees, which are good for calming the mood.◪Light: when people sleep, light will cause eyelid stimulation, which is nerve, and inhibit the secretion of melatonin in the pineal gland, so the light in the bedroom should be dark rather than bright. "Quiet" and "dark" are the two elements of sleep.◪Humidity: 40% ~ 60%.◪Mattress: From the point of view of ergonomics, human bones have two major joints, namely lumbar spine and cervical spine. When a person lies on his back on a soft mattress, his body will become a "W" shape; and the most comfortable position for sleep is to form a "V" shape or a straight line. "W" breathing is not natural, while "V" and linear breathing rhythm is natural and smooth. The pressure that the mattress exerts on the back of the body is called "body pressure". For a hard mattress, the greater the pressure that the body pressure exerts on the insensitive part, the smaller the pressure that the body pressure exerts on the sensitive part. On the contrary, for a soft mattress, whether the body pressure is sensitive or insensitive, it is the same, so the pressure is far stronger than the former, so it is certainly uncomfortable to sleep.◪Bed width: 2.5-3 times of shoulder width is appropriate, too wide is easy to produce uneasy psychology◪Pillow: neither too high nor too low. Its length is equal to shoulder width, and cool head and hot feet are the most comfortable sleeping methods
