Trying to Get a Better Night's Sleep? Try the 10-3-2-1-0 Sleep Hack
Getting to sleep at the end of a long day may sound easy, but for millions of people, it's anything but. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than a third of American adults don't get enough sleep. Not getting enough rest doesn't just make it harder to wake up in the morning, but it can also lead to chronic conditions like high blood pressure and heart disease. If you've been struggling with getting to sleep, it might be time to try something new. The 10-3-2-1-0 sleep rule is actually a presleep routine that helps your mind and body wind down and prepare for sleep, ensuring high-quality rest. We've learned that focusing on your habits around bedtime can go a long way toward helping you achieve better sleep. Here's more information. What is the 10-3-2-1-0 sleep hack?Most adults require a good six to nine hours of quality sleep each night. The 10-3-2-1-0 is a presleep routine that helps you relax and signals your body and mind that it's time to wind down. Here is everything you need to know. 10 hours before bed: no more caffeine Caffeine is the most commonly consumed psychoactive substance in the world. Caffeine consumption should ideally end 10 hours before bed because it can disrupt your sleep-wake cycle when consumed closer to bedtime. The half-life of a single dose of caffeine is about three to seven hours, so your body takes a minimum of 10 hours to eliminate caffeine from your bloodstream. This is a good general rule but 10 hours may be too rigid for some as sensitivity to caffeine varies. Along with coffee, caffeine may also be present in other drinks, such as sports drinks, soda, energy drinks, some teas and chocolate. Certain medications may also contain caffeine. You must read the labels of medications or drinks you're consuming, to avoid caffeine consumption around your bedtime. 3 hours before bed: no more food or alcohol Although consumption of alcohol before bed may seem to be relaxing, it is a common disruptor of sleep. It leads to decreased sleep quality and causes frequent overnight awakenings, which ultimately makes you feel tired throughout the next day. It may also be beneficial to avoid consuming certain foods three hours before bed, as they can lead to heartburn (acid reflux) and disrupt sleep. A few such foods include fried, spicy and high-fat foods. You may also want to avoid foods high in added sugars such as candies, cookies and desserts because they can also lead to poor sleep quality. 2 hours before bed: no more work You may want to end all work-related activities two hours before bed to ensure you get good quality sleep. Relaxing your mind will help you prepare for sleep. You can practice meditation, muscle relaxation and journaling to calm your mind after work. This helps to create a buffer time zone between your work and sleep time, allowing your brain to slow down and promoting a better quality of sleep. 1 hour before bed: no more screens It's suggested to avoid using smartphones, televisions, computers, tablets or other devices at least one hour before bed in your actual bed. Blue light before bed is not generally recommended but it is not as disruptive as we once thought. Sleep experts still urge you to avoid using screens in your bed before trying to go to sleep. If your bed is the one place you scroll on your phone or watch TV the most, the body will associate your bed as a place to be awake, making it harder to fall asleep at night. Hit snooze 0 times in the morning Hitting the snooze button may disrupt your sleep cycle, making you feel more tired. It's often better to get up with one alarm. The sleep between the alarms is often fragmented and low quality, which may decrease your overall alertness and motivation throughout the day. Along with making you tired, snoozing alarms can also make you late for your daily activities. Additionally, getting up with the first alarm, even if it feels difficult initially, can help reinforce a consistent sleep-wake pattern. Other sleep hygiene tipsA few common tips that will help to maintain your sleep hygiene and ensure good quality sleep every night include: Keep electronics out of the bedroom: Keeping electronics out of your bedroom will ensure you are not getting exposed to blue light from them, which can disrupt your sleep-wake cycle.

Avoid late-night exercise: Although exercise is good for your health, doing it one to two hours before bed can disrupt your sleep.

Wind your mind down before bed: Winding your mind before bed ensures your mind is calm and your body is preparing to fall asleep. This, in turn, ensures you get high-quality sleep and do not experience any awakenings. Does the 10-3-2-1-0 hack really work? Yrabota/Getty Images Better sleep means a better quality of life along with better mood, improved productivity and reduced stress. Instead of tossing and turning in your bed, try the 10-3-2-1-0 sleep routine. Many have reported that this routine is effective in preparing their body for sleep. Although getting used to any routine is difficult, focus on gradual, sustainable changes rather than a perfect routine to reduce stress and anxiety about sleep. Hopefully, this advice will help you unwind and make falling asleep and getting good quality sleep easier.

Where to Dine with Babies, and Other Reader Questions
Well, well, well, if it isn't my favorite thing to do. Let's answer some reader questions, my friends! I'll be doing these on a monthly basis, giving my new co-writer, Luke, a much-needed break from scouring the city for dollar slices, tofu hot dogs and brain tacos. As for the rest of you, please keep the reader questions coming! I want your restaurant requests, the more specific the better, and I'll take them in a few forms: via email at wheretoeat@ as a submission in this form, and on my Instagram, where I'll post story prompts for you. This week, I'll dive into questions from readers seeking an actually good German restaurant, a taste of Brooklyn 2000s nostalgia, and a restaurant where parents can pridefully roll in with strollers. Are there any good German restaurants left in New York City? Most are mediocre at best and expensive for what they serve. — Mason There sure are, and Zum Stamtisch, a beloved institution since 1972, is one of them. The room alone — carpeted, paneled with dark wood and decorated with antique steins and taxidermy — felt to me as if it were airlifted straight from Heidelberg to Glendale, Queens. In keeping with tradition, you should get a steering wheel-size pretzel, served warm with two types of mustard and biting horseradish sauce, and a wurstplatte with housemade smoked wursts and kraut (a steal, by the way, at $20). My favorite bite, I was surprised to find, is an American invention: the bratburger. It's a delightful little sandwich served on a toasted English muffin with a taut, springy bratwurst patty and two thick slices of ham under a blanket of melted Swiss cheese. 69-46 Myrtle Avenue (70th Street), Glendale Want all of The Times?
