Seems like you never get enough rest even after sleeping long hours? You would know part of
reasons for this fatigue, as you suffer from insomnia. But
other part on waking up tired even after a good long sleep eludes you. A good example of how insomnia wreck havoc in a person live can be found my friend, Darren. Suffering from insomnia, he finds it very difficult to concentrate and stay awake during
day. This leads to a couple of failed relationship and lost opportunities for promotion, because his tiredness is seen as insincerity and no interest.
Highlighted above shows
mild effects of insomnia,
tragic ones with many lives lost would be traffic accidents where
drivers doze off.
Okay, now we succeeded in making you sit up and realized that sleep disorder can disrupt your life, here's 3 surefire ways to sleep once your head touches
pillow: -
Following a routine:
Following a routine would assist us to sleep better because of our sleep cycle. 1 sleep-cycle contains 4 stages of sleep with
last stage being
REM rapid eye movement sleep, which is
easiest to wake up.
Getting up before or after REM sleep would make you very drowsy and not rested. The former happens because you have not completed 1 cycle,
latter because of
halting of a new cycle. Therefore, from this experiment with your waking time, you would know what time you are
most alert and that would be
end of your REM.
And by
way, to get good sleep, you would need at least 1 cycle, which range between 5-6 hours depending on individuals. So, to get quality sleep and to feel energetic for
entire day, you do not need more sleep but waking at
right time (6 hours versus
recommended 8 hours).
