For those not aware of it, binaural beats is a combination of two slightly different sound frequencies that create a single tone. The idea behind these beats is that they will cause our brain to slow down activity and allow ourselves to relax. This helps dramatically, as thoughts and other brain activity can keep us up all night.
Have Your Pet With You

Corrections, have your furry friend in the room while you sleep. There is plenty of evidence that those who sleep with their dog – and effectively any animal – slept better than those who didn’t.
Why? Because for many pet owners, their pet creates a sense of safety and allows ourselves to relax.
That being said, to get these benefits, it’s wise to give your pet a specific sleeping spot, rather than have them sleeping with you.

Maybe not something to do in the dead of winter, but opening a window can prove beneficial for improved sleep. The idea with this one is that by allowing air flow, you’re also reducing the levels of carbon dioxide in your room. According to one study, that translates to sleeping better at night.
