Feeling tired day after day? While you might be getting the recommended 7-9 hours, it may not be the quality sleep that your body needs.  

 Here are three tips to improve your sleep quality:  

1. Use room darkening curtains to create a dark sleeping environment
2. Try to avoid using electronic devices 1 hour before going to bed, this includes TV, laptop and cell phone
3. Foster pro-sleep habits throughout the day, such as avoiding caffeine intake after 2:00 p.m.
