Here are  8 common reasons  that can disrupt your nights… and most importantly, concrete ways to remedy them.

1. Your room is not suitable for sleeping

Too hot, too cold, too noisy or too bright: our environment directly influences the quality of our sleep. The ideal temperature is around  18°C ​​(64°F) . If you sweat or shiver at night, adjust your duvet or slightly open the window.
A gentle tip  :  install blackout curtains and use a lavender room spray. A calm, dark, and cool bedroom naturally promotes  deep sleep .

2. Stress and anxiety prevent you from letting go

When your thoughts are racing, it's impossible to get restful sleep. If you wake up with a racing heart or a racing mind, your mind remains in "alert mode."
Try the four-count breathing technique: inhale for 4 seconds, hold your breath for 4 seconds, exhale for 4 seconds, then hold your breath for 4 seconds. This simple technique calms the mind and helps you fall back asleep faster.

3. You drink too much before going to sleep

A large glass of water or a late-night herbal tea can be enough to wake your bladder in the middle of the night. Limit your fluid intake in the two hours before bedtime, especially those containing caffeine.
If this becomes a frequent occurrence, talk to your doctor: certain hormonal or metabolic factors can increase these awakenings.

4. That little glass of wine in the evening disrupts your sleep.

Contrary to popular belief, alcohol does not promote sleep. It may provide initial relaxation, but it then disrupts the sleep-wake cycle and causes awakenings in the middle of the night. The body, busy eliminating the alcohol, prevents deep sleep phases.
Opt instead for a relaxing herbal tea—chamomile, verbena, or linden—and be sure to stay well hydrated throughout the day. 

You have trouble breathing at night

If you wake up feeling like you can't breathe, it could be a sign of a breathing disorder like sleep apnea. Don't panic: a simple test can often identify the cause.
Peaceful sleep also depends on smooth, regular breathing throughout the night.

Your metabolism is running at full speed

Sweating, palpitations, sudden awakenings… An overactive thyroid can sometimes be responsible. A blood test can confirm this.
In the meantime, adopt a calming bedtime routine: warm herbal tea, light reading, dim lighting, and, above all, no screens in bed.

You eat too late (or not enough)

A heavy dinner forces your body to digest when it should be resting. Conversely, going to bed on an empty stomach can cause a drop in blood sugar during the night.
Ideally: a light meal, rich in vegetables and lean proteins, eaten at least two hours before bedtime. And if you get a little hungry, a plain yogurt or a banana will do the trick.

Your legs refuse to stay still

Tingling or an irresistible urge to move your legs? You may be suffering from restless legs syndrome. This disorder affects many people, especially during periods of fatigue or iron deficiency.

Stay well hydrated, stretch before bed, and engage in regular physical activity: these simple steps effectively relieve unpleasant sensations.

Remember this: waking up during the night is not inevitable. By adjusting your environment, habits, and evening rituals, you can rediscover restful and restorative sleep… and finally enjoy your nights until morning.
