GET A BETTER NIGHT'S SLEEP WITH HOME AUTOMATION

It seems the more technology we own, the more trouble we have getting a good night's sleep.

Now, most of the problem is to do with screens in the bedroom, blue light and the inability to switch off, even when it's the one thing you need to do.

However, technology, in the form of automated systems, has big benefits in helping you get a good night's sleep. Your sleep quality can't help but improve when customised home automation systems are working in the background to keep you comfortable and safe all night.

Automated Lighting

Lighting - too much, too little, or the wrong kind - is a big factor in sleep quality and staying asleep.

Cool coloured lighting helps you wake up naturally, and warm coloured lighting helps you relax and fall asleep, so installing lights that you program to turn on and off at different times of the day or night can get your circadian rhythm back on track, without even realising it.

Additionally, the screens on your devices can be set to automatically cut out blue light at night to improve your sleep.

Good Night

By setting up a bedtime scenario with your home automation system, you can relax and let your home do the work for you. You can trigger a scenario on your phone right from the comfort of your bed. Better yet, schedule the scenario to start a certain time. Close all the blinds and curtains and turn off the lights around the house, dimming those in the bedroom, to give you a feeling of peace, comfort and safety so you can easily drift off to sleep.

Wake Up Rejuvenated

After getting a great night's sleep, you don't want to undo all the tranquility by starting off your morning with a blaring alarm ringing in your ear. Similarly to setting up a bedtime scenario, schedule the blinds in the bedroom to open quietly in the morning, letting warm, gentle sunlight in to wake you naturally.
