How being alone may be the key to rest
I think key to getting really good rest is to unplug. I know most people tend to sit on their phones or computer for a few hours. Some science suggest that isn't good rest because your nervous system is still being stimulated. [1]I find I get the best rest when I unplug for a bit. Take a long walk, just for the sake of walking. Or lay down for 30 minutes and do nothing for a while.[1] http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/mental-downtime/
