It is considered very important to get good sleep to keep the body healthy and fit. It is necessary to maintain both mental and physical health. Doctors say that people who do not get enough sleep are at risk of many health problems.
There can be many reasons for the problem of sleeplessness. Mental stress or worries often activate the brain so much that a person is unable to sleep comfortably. Apart from this, those who consume tea, coffee, cigarettes, and other caffeinated substances can also have problems with sleep disorders.
Studies show that people suffering from certain types of chronic diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, heart diseases, and mental illness also often have disrupted sleep.
Problem of sleeplessness
The problem of sleeplessness (insomnia) is a condition in which a person has difficulty sleeping or his sleep is often interrupted at night. The effect of lack of sleep can increase many types of health problems (such as high blood pressure, diabetes, mental disorders, and other chronic diseases) in the long term.
Health experts say that excessive use of screens like mobile or computers can also be considered for increasing sleep problems. The blue light emitted from these devices prevents the production of melatonin hormone necessary for sleep.
Some measures can be helpful to improve sleep.
Stay away from smartphones and screens.
Do not use smartphones, computers, or television 1-2 hours before sleeping. The blue light of these devices affects the level of melatonin hormone, which causes trouble in sleeping. Melatonin is a natural hormone that regulates sleep. People suffering from insomnia can take its supplement after consulting a doctor. If the problem of sleep is due to any mental disorder like depression or anxiety, then consult a psychiatrist for this.
Set a sleeping time
Make it a habit to sleep and wake up at the same time every day. This regulates the body's biological clock, which improves the quality of sleep. Apart from this, make the room conducive to sleep. The room should be quiet, dark and cool. Good sleep is obtained in a conducive environment.
Do physical exercise
Regular physical exercise helps improve the quality of sleep. Exercising makes the body feel tired, which makes it easier to sleep. Keep in mind not to exercise before sleeping, as it can increase physical excitement. Doing meditation, deep breathing techniques, and muscle relaxation exercises before sleeping reduces stress and improves sleep.
