The way your bedroom looks and feels can affect your quality of sleep. Making your bedroom a place that invites sleep, will help you get a better night’s sleep.

Factors which can improve your bedroom environment include the room temperature, noise level, lighting and furniture arrangement. 

Numerous studies point out that external noise, often from traffic, can cause poor sleep and long-term health issues.  In one study on the bedroom environment of women, around 50% of participants noticed improved sleep quality when noise and light diminished.
