5 tips for a quick post-Carnival sleep recovery
1. Resume a regular sleep routine
It is essential to get back to a consistent sleep schedule, going to bed and waking up at approximately the same time every day. This will help re-establish the body’s natural circadian rhythm.
2. Prioritize sleep quality
Even though your sleep time may have been reduced during Carnival, it is important to focus on improving your sleep quality. Avoid stimulants, such as caffeine, before bed and create an environment conducive to sleep, with a dark, cool and quiet room.
3. Avoid long naps during the day
While it’s tempting to take long naps to make up for missed nights, this can disturb your night’s sleep. If naps are possible, try to limit them to 20-30 minutes if necessary, and avoid taking them late in the day.

In addition to good sleep hygiene, maintaining healthy habits, such as a balanced diet and regular exercise, can help promote better sleep quality.
