Health Talks on Campus

Sleep Health

College-age adults need 7-10 hours of sleep per night, but most college students only sleep 6 hours. Lack of sleep is associated with physical and emotional risks, including a lowered immune system, increased weight gain, greater feelings of stress, lower GPA and overall academic performance, and increased mental health issues such as depression and anxiety.

Adopting these healthy habits can help:

  • Go to bed every night at the same time and setting your alarm so you are waking up at a consistent time every morning.
  • Establish a regular, relaxing bedtime routine like reading a book or listening to soothing music.
  • Try to create a dark, quiet and comfortable environment for sleeping.
  • Avoid using electronics right before bed.
  • Avoid large meals and caffeine before bedtime.
  • Establish a regular exercise routine during the day to help you fall asleep more easily at night.
