But when it comes to sleep quality, there is one question that people have to pay attention to - is it better to leave the bedroom door open or closed when sleeping?
Some people think that they should open the bedroom door when they sleep at night, which can promote the flow of air and breathe more smoothly.
But some people think that when they go to bed at night, they should close the door, so that they can feel safe and sleep more stable.
So, this article will analyze the scientific basis for you to analyze whether you should close the bedroom door when you go to bed at night.

Is it better to sleep with the bedroom door open or closed?
Professionals recommend that you close the door when you go to bed at night.
And there is a scientific basis for reaching this conclusion:
1. Keep it private
We need to know that the bedroom is originally used as a place to sleep, and it has a certain amount of privacy.
After all, many people habitually put their private belongings in the bedroom, and these things cannot be shown to outsiders.
If a guest comes to the house at this time and accidentally sees the bedroom through the open door, everyone may feel embarrassed.
Moreover, some young people will live with the elderly after they get married, and even some families are several generations in the same house, in this case, it is even more important to close the bedroom door and rest when sleeping at night, otherwise it will not be good for the two of them to be seen accidentally.
2. Health considerations
It is said that sleeping with the door open at night has a good ventilation effect and helps to sleep deeply. But many people ignore a more important problem: when people fall into deep sleep, their defenses decrease.
It's not that you can meet bandits at home for no reason. It's just that if the sky suddenly changes outside, the cold night wind blowing in may bring physical discomfort to deep sleepers. For example, if you don't cover the quilt at night, you will catch a cold, which will lead to diarrhea or a cold.
Therefore, for the sake of health, it is better for everyone to sleep with the bedroom door closed.
3. Avoid risks
Because once there is a gas leak or fire outside, if your bedroom door is open, the poisonous gas will enter the bedroom as soon as possible, and if you don't react in time, it will cause harm to our body.
However, if the door of the room happens to be closed in this case, then it can effectively block the smoke and harmful gases, giving yourself more time to escape. Don't be careless, there have been similar incidents in your life.

How do you get a good night's sleep?
Sleep quality is not only related to daily work and life, but also related to human health. We spend one-third of our lives in sleep, and how to maintain good sleep quality has become a special concern for more and more people.
First of all, before how to ensure the quality of sleep, it is necessary to understand the common sleep problems.
1. Insomnia: such as difficulty falling asleep, not sleeping deeply, waking up easily at night, dreaming, going to bed early, feeling weak after waking up or feeling sleepy during the day, etc.
2. Drowsiness: For example, prolonged sleep time generally refers to sleeping for more than 8 hours at night, but still being sleepy during the day.
3. Sleep-wake rhythm disorder: recurrent sleep duration is not constant, such as falling asleep at a fixed time before, but recently falling asleep earlier or late.
4. Parasomnias: such as sleepwalking, night terrors, nightmares, etc., some can also be accompanied by snoring, teeth grinding, sweating, sleeping talking, etc.
Secondly, improve the quality of sleep and don't use "home remedies" indiscriminately
In real life, in order to improve their sleep quality, many people will try their best to seek "miracle medicine" and "home remedies", but often the result is that the harder they work, the more insomnia they have, such as the following home remedies, it is recommended that you do not use them indiscriminately.
1. "Brewing" in advance: Some people think that as long as they go to bed early and brew in bed, they can get a good night's sleep, and if they can't put it away, it is easier to aggravate insomnia. After all, if you can't fall asleep in a short time, people will be cranky, and the more you think about it, the more excited you become, which will affect your sleep.
2. "Drinking" to help sleep: Some people feel that it is better to fall asleep after drinking, but as everyone knows, this kind of sleep is just light sleep, which is more likely to disturb the sleep structure and make people feel lightheaded when they wake up the next day.
3. "Exercise" before going to bed: Some people feel that if they do some moderate exercise before going to bed, they will fall asleep quickly when they are tired. As everyone knows, exercise will make the already tired muscles more tense and the brain more awake.
Some people will use the way of reading before bed to improve their sleep, but they didn't expect that many people's tense novels make their brains more excited after reading them.
4. Excessive stress about sleep time: Some people always feel that they don't sleep enough time every day, and eight hours will affect their physical health, resulting in daily mental tension, which in turn affects sleep.
5. "Catch up on sleep" during the day or on weekends: People who stay up late for a long time have such a logic, if they don't sleep well today, they will make up for sleep during the day tomorrow. As everyone knows, this kind of heart will aggravate the vicious circle of going to bed late.
Finally, a few small ways to ensure a good quality of sleep:
(1) Soak your feet
If you want to improve the quality of sleep and fall asleep quickly, you can also soak your feet in an appropriate amount before going to bed, which can promote the body's blood circulation.
Not only that, but soaking your feet will also allow you to release your stress.
(2) Let the body relax
In particular, it is recommended that everyone do relaxation training, that is, through relaxation, to help you fall asleep better. Common relaxation training methods include abdominal breathing, muscle relaxation, and intentional relaxation.
By the way, I would like to introduce you to the abdominal breathing method with a good effect, the specific process:
a. After washing before going to bed at night, lie on your back to relax your body as much as possible, and your hands can be naturally placed on your sides or superimposed on your abdomen.
b. Slowly inhale through your nose and expand your entire abdomen outward as much as possible, keeping your chest still.
c. Exhale through the mouth, contract the abdomen inward as much as possible, and keep the chest still.
d. One exhale and one inhale should be deep and slow, and the duration should be about 12 seconds, that is, deep inhalation (puffing up the stomach), about 5 seconds, holding breath for 1 second, and then exhaling slowly (retracting the stomach) for about 5 seconds, holding the breath for 1 second.
Then, as you do it, you remind yourself that your brain is relaxed, your eyes are relaxed...... All the way to the tiptoe relaxation.
Be sure to empty your brain, don't think about other messy things, and focus on the relaxation of each body organ at the moment. Slowly, the brain and body will relax, in this way, it can have a certain hypnotic effect, and the quality of sleep will be higher.
Summary:
When you usually sleep, you must close the bedroom door, don't think it's a small thing, it's related to your life, what do you think?
