Avoid Drinking Alcohol Within Three Hours of Bedtime

TLDR:

Alcohol can disrupt your sleep architecture, particularly the REM (rapid eye movement) stage, which is crucial for memory and emotional processing. Drinking too close to bedtime often results in a disrupted sleep cycle, leading to poorer quality sleep and less restorative rest. By allowing a buffer of at least three hours, you give your body enough time to metabolize the alcohol, reducing its sleep-disturbing effects.
