About This Article
If you want to sleep in, make sure you close your blinds and shut your door to keep out as much light as possible. You should also try to keep your room at 65°F since most people sleep better in a cool room. To make sure outside noises don’t keep you up, try playing static on a radio or running a fan to mask unwanted noises. If that still isn’t enough, you can try staying up later that usual so you’ll be tired in the morning, but you could just end up more tired than before.
