I can’t sleep when I wear socks to bed. Socks are just a restriction, my feet can't breathe. I've found the reasons why I have problems sleeping at night. There could be many reasons why you aren’t getting a good nights sleep and here are a few that I find have an effect on me.
Use your bed just for sleeping
-Doing your homework, watching movies or playing games in bed makes your body think that your bed is a place where you stay awake. Keep the bed as a just a place to sleep.
-If you eat or exercise just a few hours before bed then your body is wired for that. Try winding down by reading or doing something relaxing a couple hours before bed.
Avoid caffeine in the afternoon
-By bedtime that caffeinated beverage from your afternoon is set in your system and you won’t sleep as quickly as you like.
Don’t take naps after 12 p.m.
-Don’t take late afternoon or evening naps. This makes your body think that you’ve had your bedtime all ready. This will only complicate the falling asleep process.
Stress
-Laying in bed and thinking about all your problems isn’t the best thing to do. Your mind is working at it day rate and therefore sleep will escape your grasp for even longer.
Sometimes is a mixture of all of these things or one. Think about what could be keeping you awake at night and try and find remedies to fix the problem.
