For light sleepers, any kind of noise in your home or event that’s taking place outside can result in the worst night’s sleep. Any loud banging, bright lights or a partner’s incoherent chatter or snoring can be incredibly damaging to your sleep pattern, especially if you wake easily at any sound.
Whether you’re worried about sleeping due to disruptions or you’re trying to fix your light sleeping, there are a few tips and tricks you can do to ensure you sleep better without disruptions. I asked sleep expert,Phil Lawler at Dormeofor his advice and he’s put together 5 tips to help light sleepers improve their sleep and block out unwanted noise.
1. Wear quality earplugs
2. Position your bed in a quiet corner

3. Invest in a noise machine
4. Exercise
5. Upgrade your windows or curtains
The last tip is making a few upgrades to your windows and curtains to improve their noise cancellation. Double or triple glazed windows are brilliant at minimising your noise levels or you can check that your current windows have no small gaps so they don’t let any drafts or noise seep in. As windows are quite a big purchase, “another option is investing in soundproof curtains that absorb and dampen sounds. Suede and polyester are quality options for the best soundproof curtains.”
