      ③Avoid stimulating drinks (such as wine, strong tea, etc.) before going to bed. coffee etc.), smoke as little as possible, avoid activities that can cause excitement, avoid too many guests, and don’t overeat dinner.

      ④Practice personal hygiene and environmental hygiene before going to bed.
