The
Right Nightlight Can Help You Sleep Better
When it's time to sleep, you should try to have a bedroom
that is totally dark. Total darkness can increase your melatonin
production which can lead to better sleep. And a dark sleep
environment can even help prevent
cancer.
Often times the problem is not light that comes in from the
window, but light that originates within the bedroom,
such as a nightlight.
A night light in your bedroom can be a friend and a foe. A
night light can, of course, help you to see if you get out
of bed so that you won't stub your toe, hit your face into
the wall, fall down, etc. However, when you are lying in bed,
its light serves no purpose except to make sleep more difficult
for you.
Ahh, but there is a solution: a motion sensor night light.
Put one in your bedroom where you typically walk at night,
and it will automatically go on upon sensing your motion,
stay on long enough for you to do what you need to do, and
then go off allowing you to sleep in blissful darkness. Isn't
technology wonderful?
The two models below are motion sensor night lights that you
will probably be more than satisfied with. (Links go to Amazon.com.)
