What do you do if you can’t fall asleep or always have trouble falling asleep?
It’s actually a pretty common problem. Many people (this study says up to 30-40% of adults) suffer from symptoms of insomnia. Considering today’s fast-paced lifestyle, it is not so surprising. People tend to commit themselves to too much responsibilities and get stressed out in the process.
Most adults require at least seven to eight hour of sleep every night, most people don’t get to meet that requirement.
What are the best ways to deal with this sleeping disorder? What can you do to make sure that get decent sleep. Here are ways to fight insomnia:
Don’t mess up your body clock by staying awake one whole night then sleeping for two days straight right after. Try to keep your sleeping time consistent, even during the weekends or when you are on vacation. It will definitely help to create a bedtime routine or ritual that will send signals to your body that it’s time to sleep. Remember to avoid heavy meals or food that contain too much sugar or caffeine at least two hours before bedtime.
Physical activities during the day might help you sleep too. Moderate to intense exercise at least thirty minutes a day can help reduce the time it takes to fall asleep and increase the length and quality of sleep too. Aside from the physical tiredness, it is possible that exercise helps you fall asleep better because it reduces stress and anxiety as well. Indeed there are numerous benefits of exercising regularly, and it’s really good for your overall well-being to sweat it out every so often.
Perhaps you are thinking too much before heading to bed? Are your worries causing you to lose precious sleep? Keeping a journal and writing down your thoughts before heading to bed might help you. Keeping a diary and making it a habit to write down everything before going to bed is going to help you release negativity in your system. Sleep will come easier if there is nothing bothering your mind.
Is your bed comfortable? Are the lights in your room simply too bright? Perhaps the environment in your bedroom is making it difficult for you to sleep. Make adjustments in your bedroom to ensure that it’s conducive to sleep. Don’t forget to adjust the room temperature. You’ll have difficulties sleeping if the room is too hot or too cold.
