Tossing and turning, waking up in the middle of the night, or struggling to fall asleep — these occasional sleep troubles can be incredibly frustrating.
They may also be signs that simple lifestyle habits, stress, or bedtime routines could be affecting your rest. Everyone experiences sleep troubles from time to time, but have you ever wondered what these disruptions are trying to tell you about your daily habits?
Your Stress Is Keeping You Up
Racing thoughts and worries about past or upcoming events can make it difficult to unwind at night. A recent nationwide survey conducted by Boiron in partnership with Talker Research found that stress is a major sleep disruptor for Americans of all ages, with 45% reporting that it often or always affects their sleep. If your mind won’t settle at bedtime, it may be a sign to try relaxation techniques to help reduce stress and achieve better sleep.
Your Routine Needs a Reset
Sleep hygiene involves establishing and maintaining a bedtime routine that creates a restful sleep environment. Skipping or neglecting parts of your routine can impact your sleep quality. If you’re struggling to fall asleep or waking up groggy, your body might be telling you that adjustments are needed. Irregular bedtimes, an uncomfortable bedroom, or consuming caffeine or heavy meals before bed can all interfere with sleep. Sticking to a consistent schedule and creating calming pre-sleep habits can make a big difference.
Your Lifestyle Habits Could Be Interfering
What you do during the day can impact how well you sleep at night. Certain habits — including limiting tobacco, alcohol, and chocolate before bed — are closely linked to better sleep. Keeping naps short and avoiding them after 3 p.m. can help prevent nighttime awakenings. Consistent physical exercise and a stable bedtime schedule can also reduce restless sleep.
