For example, use battery powered clocks near your bed. Turn off electronic equipment and listen carefully as many radios, boom boxes, tape decks and more have transformers that stay on even if the device is off. These will disturb sensitive individuals and are not healthful for anyone during sleep.
Wifi should not be near your bed. Move the router, modem and other components to other parts of the house or apartment.
House wiring. In some cases, sleep will improve radically if you make sure the electric power is off in your bedroom. This is because even the wiring in the wall gives off powerful EMF and RF frequencies. This is more work t install a special switch or circuit breaker, but I know people for whom it hass made a lot of difference in their rest.
MORE ON SLEEPING WELL
Adult Sleep Needs. Most adults needs at least 8 and preferably 9 or 10 hours of rest and sleep each and every day. There can be no exceptions for holidays, weekend parties or anything else. If one must party late at night, then at least sleep in the next day, although going to bed early each night is another key to having excellent energy.
Going To Bed Very Early. This idea is upsetting at first, but most people adore it once they have gotten used to it. Small towns are far easier to do this in, as there is less “night life”. It is really just a waste of time that is often designed to stimulate people so they will be able to keep awake later.
For subtle reasons, the hours before midnight are worth about twice as much as the hours after midnight in terms of restful sleep. Therefore, the earlier you can retire at night, the better. Retiring before 10 PM is excellent. Before 9 is even better, but difficult for many to accomplish on a regular basis. Nevertheless it is best.
This goes especially for teens and children, who need even more rest and sleep, in general.
Children and Teens. Children and especially adolescents need 11 hours or more of rest, though a little of that could be rest time in bed but not strictly all sleep. Again, there should be no exceptions for sleepovers, camping trips, late movies or other distractions.
College-Age Students. College students are often the most sleep-deprived, due to too many outings combined with studies and other distractions at this age. They also have more natural or hormonal activity in most instances, so they “get away with it”, as they say. This is a lie. They just develop problems and illnesses as a result.
Sleep Enhancers. You may be able to get away with a little less sleep if you make sure your sleep is not disturbed in any way. Here are examples of ways to enhance your rest and sleep each night, at home and on vacations as well.
1. Electronic gadgets. Keep them away from your bed, even 110-volt clocks, away from your sleeping area. Computers, televisions, and even wireless boxes, are best turned off at night. Some people even turn off the circuit breaker electricity near their bed area.
2. Quiet is the key. Noise is a great enemy of sleep. Wear earplugs if your resting area is noisy, or a partner snores, or car noise is audible in your bedroom.
3. Separate beds is a wonderful idea, though it sounds horribly unromantic to some. It is better energetically for many people, and it assures that a partner’s visits to the bathroom, or just random tossing and turning will not wake you up.
4. Keep the room darkened completely. Use blackout curtains and shades when needed. Also excellent are eye covers if the room cannot made totally dark.
5. Drink more earlier in the day. Drink water in the morning and not after 6 PM so you are not having to get up many times to urinate at night. This is quite disturbing to your sleep in some cases, especially if you do not fall asleep easily.
6. Use sleep remedies if needed. Sleep is so vital that there is no reason not to use calcium and magnesium supplements, warm milk at bedtime, foot reflexology on yourself, using achi machine to relax, valerian root, chamomile, hops, homeopathic calming remedies, and other natural methods to enhance your sleep and rest. Check health food stores and the internet for other simple, safe, inexpensive sleep aids.
Drug therapy for sleep is not usually needed if all the above is used. If, however, you have tried all of them to no avail, sleeping pills can be helpful until your body chemistry is corrected so your body will relax enough to rest.

Electronic gadgets have overtaken many teenagers’ bedrooms, damaging their health due to lack of sleep, according to a British survey.
