Description: General bedtime rules:
* Go to sleep at about the same time each night, and awaken at the same time each morning. Wide fluctuations between workdays and days off can further impair your sleep.
* Try not to nap. If you do, restrict this to about an hour per day, and do it relatively early -- before about 4 o’clock in the afternoon.
* If you are not sleepy, either don’t go to bed or arise from bed. Do quiet, relaxing activities until you feel sleepy, then return to bed.
* Avoid doing stimulating, frustrating, or anxiety provoking activities in bed or in the bedroom such as watching television, studying, or balancing the checkbook
