What causes dreaminess and poor sleep quality?

With the continuous progress of society, people are facing more and more social pressure, work pressure and life pressure. Many people also face the problem of poor sleep quality. Some people stay up late and don’t get enough sleep, some people suffer from insomnia and can’t sleep, and some people have many dreams and wake up easily. According to research, the quality of sleep directly affects a person's life span. So why is this the case for people who have many dreams and wake up easily?

4 factors that cause poor sleep quality and frequent dreams

1. Excessive use of the brain before going to bed

Many people bring work home and work overtime and stay up late because of work. However, if they overuse their brains and think about things before going to bed, they are very likely to become nervous, anxious, and other emotions, which leads to nervous excitement and difficulty sleeping.

2. Like to sleep with the lights on

Many people like to sleep with the lights on before going to bed. One reason is habit, and another is fear of the dark. And because of your habit, it is very harmful to the quality of sleep. Because a dark environment stimulates the brain to release melatonin, allowing people to quickly fall asleep. If the light is too bright, less melatonin will be released, making it difficult for people to fall asleep.

3. Like to sleep with face covered

Many people are very restless when they sleep, and in fact, the habit of sleeping with the face covered will also affect the quality of sleep. Because if you sleep with your face covered at night, you will inhale a lot of carbon dioxide, which will cause breathing difficulties, poor sleep quality and make you prone to nightmares.

4. Prefer to sleep in the wind

In the hot summer weather, people like to sleep facing the air conditioner or fan. This will not only affect the quality of sleep, but also cause colds, fevers and stomach upsets. Try not to sleep in a place with cold air convection, and turn your air conditioner or fan into "timing mode".
