💤 Struggling to Sleep? Let’s Talk About Insomnia 💤
Tossing and turning at night? 😟 You’re not alone. Insomnia can be caused by stress, poor habits, or even lifestyle choices—but understanding the root of the problem is the first step to better rest.
👉 Stress and Anxiety: High stress and anxious thoughts increase cortisol levels, making it hard to relax and fall asleep
👉Poor Sleep Habits: Irregular schedules, screen time, or a disruptive sleep environment can interfere with the body’s natural sleep cues
👉Caffeine and Alcohol: Caffeine blocks sleep-promoting chemicals, while alcohol disrupts sleep quality later in the night
👉Medical Conditions: Issues like chronic pain, asthma, GERD, or hormonal imbalances can make restful sleep challenging
👉Medications: Some drugs, like antidepressants and beta-blockers, can interfere with sleep as a side effect
👉Lifestyle Factors: Shift work, late meals, or vigorous exercise before bed can disrupt sleep schedules and delay sleep onset
