The body needs to sleep at night, but sometimes it's hard to
get enough sleep, for many reasons related to bad habits or health problems.
Some people have difficulty sleeping at night, or waking up
shortly after sleeping, which is something that only causes anxiety when it is
repeated, and it continues, and it affects everyday life.
Lack of sleep causes damage to the body and the brain over
time, so we need to know the reasons why sleep is difficult at night and how to
overcome them.
1-High Room Lighting
Using strong lights at night can adversely affect sleep.
The explanation is that after sundown light reduces or
delays the release of melatonin, which promotes sleep.
It is therefore preferable to sit in dim lights at night, to
prepare the body for sleep by releasing melatonin.
2- Do daily tasks in the bedroom
Many people prefer to do various daily activities in the
bedroom, such as studying, working, reading and watching television.
And this leads to connecting the bedroom to different
activities, as opposed to what should be.
Thus, it is preferable to separate the space for different
day-to-day activities from the space for sleep.
3-room temperature rise
The temperature of the room makes it harder to sleep at
night, especially during the summer, and it may lead to a night-time wake up.
The body's temperature falls automatically at bedtime, and
if it's too high, it's going to block sleep.
4-indigestion
If you eat fat foods or cause side effects in the body, it
causes you to feel uncomfortable, you get bulky, you get puffed up, you go to
the bathroom, and that means you can't sleep at night.
Diseases of the digestive system, such as estion or acid
reflux, can cause insomnia.
It is best to avoid eating before sleep, and in the event of
hunger, yogurt and fruit can be eaten as a light and saturated meal.
5. The great need for urination
When you eat a glass of milk or drink tea before you sleep,
there will be a greater need for urination during this period.
It can get up again after falling asleep.
Health problems related to bladder will lead to increased
urination, especially at night.
To avoid this problem, it is best to avoid any pre-bedtime
drinks.
6- Severe stress
Stress is the main contributor to insomnia, as stress causes
negative feelings that hinder sleep easily.
The body's secretion of cortisol, called stress hormone,
increases during stress, making it difficult to sleep.
7-Mint inhalation
Many people are used to using toothpaste in pre-sleep mint
smell, and they don't know that it has an effect on feeling alert and
refreshed.
This is not only true for toothpaste, but also for mint
inhalation in general causes difficulty sleeping.
It is therefore recommended that you avoid perfumes, oils,
and candles containing mint.
