Many factors contribute to this, including stress, insomnia, aging, medications, health conditions,

and lifestyle choices. Stress is a major culprit, affecting both your body’s physical response and your ability

to fall back asleep. As stress hormones rise, your body’s heart rate and temperature can stay elevated, keeping you awake.

Insomnia is another common cause, where difficulty either falling asleep or staying asleep persists regularly. For older

adults, aging can lead to lighter sleep cycles, making it easier to wake up at night. Certain medications can interfere

with sleep, including diuretics, antidepressants, and beta-blockers. Additionally, health conditions such as sleep apnea,

arthritis, and GERD may disrupt sleep due to physical discomfort or breathing issues. Lifestyle habits also play a significant role.

Caffeine and alcohol before bed, eating too close to bedtime, or engaging in stimulating activities like watching screens can hinder

your sleep quality. To improve sleep quality, try establishing a consistent sleep routine, reducing screen time before bed,

managing stress with relaxation techniques like yoga or meditation, and avoiding heavy meals or caffeine in the evening.

If this becomes a chronic issue, it’s a good idea to consult with a doctor for further guidance
