Tips for a restful night’s sleep
Control your hydration: Drink most of your water in the morning and afternoon, limiting your intake to at least 3 hours before bedtime.
Elevate your legs before going to bed: this helps drain excess fluid and prevents the kidneys from being overloaded in the middle of the night.
Create the perfect environment: Keep the room temperature cool and use lightweight, breathable duvets.
Pay attention to your posture: Sleeping on your side with a pillow between your knees improves blood circulation and reduces pressure on your bladder.
Practice relaxation techniques: Meditation, deep breathing, or reading a light book before bed reduce tension and prepare the body for deep rest.
Empty the bladder twice: go to the toilet, wait a minute while sitting and try again – this helps empty more completely.
