Minimize Gadgets
Your bedroom is meant for sleeping. With that in mind, let the TV stay in the table room. Having a TV in your bedroom will only serve to keep you awake longer. This means that you will sleep less, and even wake up tired.

Photographs
This does not mean you go for family photos. Family photos should stay in the other rooms. Bedroom artwork should be as emotionally detached as possible. You don’t want to wake up in the middle of the night and start thinking about your ageing parents.
