The Mindfulness tool in the Fitbit app includes mindfulness sessions and can help you track and understand the effects of your mindfulness practice. Studies have proven that people who practise mindfulness meditation experience sleep quality improvement on par with those seen from using other proven sleep treatments such as cognitive behavioural therapy or relaxation training. Meditation sets off a slew of changes in the body that is way more effective than counting sheep at promoting dozing off. Using your Fitbit, you should target 150 Active Zone Minutes each week, or 22 minutes daily, as recommended by the World Health Organisation.Īctive Zone Minutes counts your time spent in any heart-pumping activity and helps you stay motivated with on-wrist notifications as well as recognising how hard you are working with personalised heart rate zones based on your age and fitness level. Activity promotes healthy levels of many hormones and other chemicals in the body, which in turn is believed to promote healthy sleep.įitbit can help you manage your daily exercise routine so that you can increase or decrease your output depending on how you feel it’s affecting your sleep. One of the best things you can do for your sleep happens long before your head hits the pillow and that’s ensuring you are active throughout the day. If you’re worried about missing your alarm, then worry not because Fitbit’s "silent alarm" feature alerts you at your chosen wake-up time with a vibration that’s gentle enough to wake you up without startling you as the traditional alarm sound might. If necessary, you can use earbuds to drown out the sound. You should also aim to sleep in total silence. If possible, you should always aim to sleep in total darkness but if that’s not possible and you’re comfortable doing so, try wearing an eye mask. You can set a schedule in the Fitbit app to help you meet your sleep goal and maintain consistent sleep patterns and can set either a bedtime, a wake-up time target, or both. Your body and brain thrive on routine and part of what sets that routine is a consistent sleep schedule. Getting to bed at a consistent hour every single night may be difficult in today’s world, but it’s another essential part of a healthy sleep routine. That's one thing you know what your Sleep Score is but how do you improve it? Dr Heneghan has six tips for you to ensure your slumber is as good as it can possibly be: 1. Most people get a score between 72 and 83. Finally, restoration tracks how relaxed you were during sleep a high sleeping heart rate lowers your score. Sleep quality looks at how much time you spend in deep and REM sleep the more time you spend in these stages, the higher your score. The score is a sum of individual scores in sleep duration, sleep quality, and restoration, for a total score of up to 100.ĭuration focuses on how much you slept, and the more you sleep, the better you score. The Fitbit Sleep Score can help people understand their sleep patterns over time and what is impacting the quality of their sleep so that they can make changes to improve it.ĭr Heneghan says Fitbit users' overall nightly sleep score is based on heart rate, the time spent awake or restless, and sleep stages – how long you spend in light, deep and REM sleep.
