How to Stop Waking Up Often During the Night
You may be waking up at night for a number of reasons, including insomnia, sleep deprivation, and oversleeping. Under normal circumstances, you should wake up fewer than 2 times per night, and the total amount of time you spend awake each night should be less than 10% of total sleep time.
If you wake up frequently in the night, you may have insomnia. Research shows that individuals with insomnia spend significantly less time in deep sleep than normal sleepers. Associated symptoms include low energy levels, even with normal amounts of sleep time.How can I prevent waking up often during the night?
If you regularly wake up in the middle of the night and find it difficult to get back to sleep, and feel fatigued, anxious, or easily irritated as a result, see the following recommendations: - Develop regular lifestyle habits and strengthen the body's circadian rhythm. Go to bed on time, and get up on time the next day even if you could not sleep at night. Receive adequate sunlight during the day, and avoid naps that are too long. - Avoid activities that require intense brain activity before going to bed. For example, while you are in bed, do not watch TV, use your mobile phone, or go over problems. Go to bed relaxed and in a calm emotional state. - Develop a correct understanding of sleep and do not enlarge the consequences of poor sleep. If you wake up at night, do not get overly anxious, do not frequently look at the time, and relax. - The bedroom environment should be comfortable, with suitable temperatures, and without noise and light. - Maintain regular, moderate exercise (such as jogging). Exercise can promote sleep at night, but remember to avoid intense exercise before going to bed.32% better sleep in 30 days with Unplug
