 Image Source: Glodio Glow Studio! If you’re looking to get better sleep, certain types of exercise can actually help you get some quality shut-eye. Walking daily is actually a great way to help improve your quality of sleep.

For the best results, walk early in the evening for about 30 minutes while listening to your favorite music. Another exercise that can help you get some shut-eye is jumping rope. Since it is a rhythmic exercise, jumping rope can help soothe anxious and overwhelmed minds. The key to achieving that is counting your jumps, as this is proven to help calm your mind and put you at ease while you focus on counting.

He made this move after the British government, the public and the Church of England condemned his wishes to marry an American divorcée by the name of Wallis Warfield Simpson. He gave a radio address on December 11, saying: “I have found it impossible to carry on the heavy burden of responsibility and to discharge the duties of king, as I would wish to do, without the help and support of the woman I love.” On the next day, his younger brother, the duke of York, was proclaimed King George VI.
