Sick And Tired Of Not Being Able To Sleep?

Yet another night spent staring at the ceiling and wondering when you're going to

finally get asleep eh? Earlier on in the night you were so certain that you'd be able to fall asleep but now hours later you're no closer to sleep than you were when you went to bed.

Spending hour after hour in bed staring at the ceiling and hoping for sleep is no fun - I've been there myself. Sometimes you'll just have a bad night where you can't get asleep and this can happen now and again and isn't something to really worry about. The problems can start thought if you find that you've been unable to sleep for several nights in a row. This is when your sleeping disorder can develop and if you're not paying attention it can slowly take over your life.

There are a number of different causes for insomnia but the main ones you'll come across are either physical or emotional in nature. If you're suffering from any type of physical pain problem like back pain then it could cause insomnia because you simply can't rest properly. Then there are conditions like acid reflux where severe reflux can wake you up in the middle of the night which I've had personal experience of this. Basically any physical condition that causes you pain is enough to disrupt your sleep for an entire night.

After that you need to look at emotional problems and the how they can affect your sleeping pattern. You're going to have problems getting asleep if you're under any kind of emotional or psychological stress in your life. Even though you might find yourself constantly tired because you're suffering from depression no doubt you'll have even more trouble getting asleep each night because of this.

But when you look a little deeper you'll find that the cause of most peoples insomnia is actually how they're living their life. The natural pattern of day and night that we all exist in each day is called the circadian rhythm. This is a natural cycle that tells our bodies to wake up when it's bright and sleep when it's dark - like most of the rest of the life forms on planet earth. If you work weird shift patterns or night shifts you're constantly messing with your body's ability to sleep properly.

So the keys to being able to get a nights sleep is to establish a routine and a definite pattern to your sleeping. Something else that's very important is not to wind up stimulating your mind before you try to sleep because you body simply won't be able to fall asleep if you've just come off 2 hours of Facebook - this is called having good sleep hygiene.

The more you practice good sleep hygiene and establishing a healthy and regular sleeping pattern the more likely you are to be able to enjoy restful and energizing sleep each and every night.
