I\u2019m not under any unusual stress but still it\u2019s bothering me. Can you recommend something that may help?&#8217; -From a reader who wishes to remain anonymous.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Answered by Dr Harry Horgan, Clinical Psychologist, German Neuroscience Center<\/h2>\n<p>Dear Reader, I am sorry to hear that sleep has been a problem for you recently. It is difficult to overstate the importance of adequate sleep for our physical and mental health.<\/p>\n<p>When sleep difficulties arise, particularly problems with getting to sleep, it is always a good idea to review our &#8216;sleep hygiene&#8217;; a term that covers implementing good sleep habits.<\/p>\n<h2>What are good sleep habits?<\/h2>\n<p>\u2022 A regular sleeping time;<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Avoiding daytime napping;<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Restricting caffeine consumption for at least 6 hours before sleep;<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Avoiding large meals or vigorous exercise one hour before sleeping; and<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Ensuring a dark, quiet room with a comfortable temperature.<\/p>\n<p>With your case specifically, I wonder whether the disruption of your usual sleep pattern with a sleep-tracking app might an unhelpful &#8216;conditioned response&#8217;. Behavioural psychology shows us that we can develop associations between experiences and environments that can help or hinder us.<\/p>\n<p>It is very common for people who experience insomnia to understandably associate their bed with frustration and anxiety.<\/p>\n<p>A useful way of correcting this association is to keep the bedroom only for the final stage of our getting-to-sleep-routine. This can be achieved by waiting until we are feeling very sleepy before getting into bed e.g. by reading a book in the living room until we reach this point. Then retiring to bed immediately.<\/p>\n<p>If sleep does not come within 20 minutes, return to the living room and try again. Over a period of days and weeks, we can more firmly establish the association between sleepiness and our bed.<\/p>\n<p>The full original article was published in <a href=\"https:\/\/gulfnews.com\/uae\/health\/why-worry-a-sleep-app-has-robbed-me-of-rest-1.1562767755174\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gulf News<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;Hi, Sleep has never been a problem for me \u2013 usually I fall asleep a few minutes after I get into bed.
