As people generally love to spread opinions as fact, they usually also come up with hundreds of reasons for not being able to sleep well. Many say it's due to some sort of stress, even more say it's a body ache. Strangely, how many people even care to look at the smaller things first?
Strange as it may sound, it could even be the shadows on your wall or the flicker of a candle that's keeping you up every night. Light can be a real pain against dark surroundings. Try to create an environment free of any lighting and if you feel like you need a light then a sensory light would be the best option.
Avoid changing your sleep times whatsoever. This is essential to keeping your body's clock on track. Otherwise you may end up experiencing a delay in getting sleep which can be very annoying. Keep an 8 hour target for sleep every night; this is the recommended amount of sleep for most.
Having a noisy environment is a total disaster for sleep. Sometimes we can even hear the clock ticking if our minds want to so to make sure you have the perfect environment it's advisable that you turn off all electronics and get rid of the little annoying things too.
