1. Establishing a good sleep routine

This does not only refer to the amount of sleep you get each night, but also the quality of sleep.

A regular bedtime routine will go a long way in ensuring that your body is well rested and ready to take on the next day.

Prioritise sleeping in good time especially if you will be waking up early the next day.

2. Stay hydrated
