If You Wake Up in the Middle of the Night, Lie in Bed Until You Eventually Fall Back Asleep

如果半夜醒來，要躺在床上直到再次睡著

Waking up in the middle of the night is the pits, but it happens to all of us. We all hope to quickly fall back asleep, and so we tend to stay in bed hoping it’ll happen any minute now.

半夜醒來最糟心了，但我們都會遇到。我們都希望能很快再次入睡，所以我們會躺在床上期待著分分鐘能睡著。

If that doesn’t happen, though, within 15 minutes, most experts recommend getting out of bed to do something that occupies our bodies and brains without overstimulating us. Try not to check the clock either.

如果，過了15分鐘后還沒有睡著，大多數(shù)專家建議我們應(yīng)該起床做一些不太刺激的體力活或腦力活。也不要看表幾點了。
