Two supplements stand out as popular means for Americans to use with the goal of good quality sleep: magnesium and melatonin. Between the two, a melatonin supplement is more likely to help you sleep at night than magnesium, according to Shelby Harris, a licensed clinical psychologist and director of sleep health at Sleepopolis. "Magnesium supplements might be helpful for prompting sleep, but the reality is that this hasn't been routinely proven in research to know for certain," Harris tells CNBC Make It. "Melatonin is the most common natural sleep aid that can help gradually shift the body's circadian rhythm when taken properly."

The most common symptoms of seasonal allergies include itchy eyes, a runny nose, sneezing and congestion, all of which can be easily resolved with remedies like neti pots and over-the-counter allergy medication. But many people might not even realize the effects that seasonal allergies can have on sleep. Congestion can lead to snoring which typically worsens sleep apnea for those who suffer from the disorder, she adds. Seasonal allergies can also cause other discomforts that keep you up all night, like headaches. To start, you can optimize your bedroom to avoid triggering your allergy symptoms, which will ultimately help improve your sleep.
But it's important to know that there is a right and wrong way to nap, especially if you're trying to avoid messing up your sleep schedule. And that's simply too long, says Shelby Harris, licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in behavioral sleep medicine. "If you take an hour-long nap, sometimes you end up waking up feeling more groggy from it because you're getting into deeper stages of sleep," Harris tells CNBC Make It. If you're aiming to feel more energized after napping, the sweet spot is from 20 minutes to a half hour, Harris says. Also, consider the time of day which is extremely important to avoid impacting your sleep in the evening, she adds.

Despite how extreme it might sound, a sleep divorce may actually save your relationship if your inability to sleep at night has brought you to a breaking point. Here's when most people should consider a sleep divorce and how to do it successfully. Tips for a successful sleep divorce
Daylight saving time is when time jumps forward by an hour. And though we "lose" an hour of sleep temporarily, we gain an hour of sunlight until the fall. ET, time went back and we "gained" an hour of sleep, but lost an hour of sunlight. While permanent daylight saving time might sound like the perfect solution, the bill was stalled recently by the House of Representatives — it was unanimously passed by the Senate in March. And the opinions of sleep experts like Shelby Harris, a licensed clinical psychologist and director of sleep health at Sleepopolis, just might have had something to do with the delay.
