Not all bodies are the same size and shape and not all beds are created equal.  It’s helpful to think of your bed like your running shoes.  Those shoes lose their springiness over time, but may not look worse for wear after a year or two.  It’s the same with your bed – it loses its comfort gradually, but may not look that bad, but that mattress is not going to last forever.

Yes, it is as important as a good mattress. A sprung foundation acts like a shock absorber, taking a lot of the nightly wear and tear, and it contributes to your comfort and support.

Prices range greatly, but a good night’s sleep is one of the best investments you can make, so buy the best bed that you can afford.

Increasing physical activity during the day, perhaps with exercise, is a great way to expend excess energy and will help you get a better night’s sleep.

Caffeine is a stimulant for both the mind and body. If you drink it too late in the evenings (and don’t have a tolerance to it), it will keep you up until the early hours of the morning.

Both light and sound affect the quality of your sleep. Invest in a good pair of curtains or blinds and switch off all electronic devices before going to bed.
