We’ve all been there. The alarm goes off and you’re not ready to wake up. “Just five more minutes, then I’ll go to bed.” Time flies, and the minutes turn into hours. Soon, it’s three A.M. and you have to wake up for school in the morning. Don’t fret, here are some tips for you to better your sleep schedule, and help you stay happy and healthy during the day.
Sleep is very important for people of all ages. It is recommended for people ages 14-17 to get at least 8-10 hours of sleep per night. This is probably something you have heard before, but it is true, and important. Sleeping helps the mind refresh itself and take a break from the stress in everyday life.

Remember, sleep is your friend, not your enemy. By the way, people sleep better in dark rooms. Make sure to turn off the lights, unplug from social media, make the temperature one that is comfortable, and have sweet dreams, goodnight.
