It is common for most people to listen in soft music to make them sleepy before bed time while reading their favorite book; a radio or instrumental background music will do! However, some people use television as a substitute not just during bed time but even in siesta. I’ll give my father as an example.
We have a 32” Flat Screen television in our living room. It’s not mounted on the wall but it’s placed on top of a tv rack. Every afternoon, after watching his favorite sports program in Basketball TV or Solar Sports channel, he will switch it to a cable news channel, and since this is siesta time, he always ends up sleeping on the sofa while holding the remote control and leaving the television set turned on.
Watching television is a good leisure to enjoy great TV series despite the existence of YouTube. Also it is a great source of essential news information whether locally or abroad. Moreover, it is now known as a perfect substitute in preparing for a good deep sleep! (AAP)
