You stayed in bed too long<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
There is such a thing as getting too much sleep, and it can affect how you feel once you finally wake up. That’s because your sleep schedule is entirely based on your body’s circadian rhythm<\/a>. Just like sleeping too little can upset your circadian rhythm, so can sleeping for too long<\/a>. In fact, oversleeping can make you feel lethargic in the a.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The fix: <\/strong>Stay on schedule. “Elements of good sleep hygiene<\/a> include going to bed at approximately the same time every night and waking up at approximately the same time every morning,” says Monti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “The external environment of the room is sometimes a problem,” says Monti. Too much light, noise, and heat can all leave you less than well-rested when you wake up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The fix:<\/strong> Keep your bedroom dark by wearing a sleep mask<\/a> or investing in blackout curtains, block out noise with a white noise machine<\/a> or earplugs<\/a>, and turn down your thermostat to somewhere between 60\u00b0 and 67\u00b0, the optimal temperature range for sleep<\/a>.

Have a craving for a hot beverage before bed? Try these relaxing teas<\/a> instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although alcohol<\/a> may help you feel drowsy and tired enough to fall asleep, it can actually mess with your sleep overnight. Monti notes that for some people, even one glass of wine can ruin your quality of sleep overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The fix:<\/strong> If you’re going to drink alcohol, consider stopping a few hours before you go to bed instead of sipping until you feel tired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Your partner’s regular snoring<\/a> isn’t just detrimental to their health. It can also impact your ability to catch Z’s\u2014and put a strain on your relationship. According to a Saatva survey of more than 1,000 people, among those who share a bed, snoring is the most-complained about habit<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The fix:<\/strong> Wear earplugs or use a white noise machine to block out the sound. Because snoring could be a sign of a deeper health issue, also encourage your partner to visit the doc so they can find out what’s causing them to do it and come up with a treatment plan. When all else fails, consider sleeping separately. (Here are the biggest sleep problems couples face<\/a>\u2014and how to deal with them.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sleep disorders like restless legs syndrome<\/a> or sleep apnea<\/a> can make it difficult to get quality sleep. And they often go undiagnosed, meaning they might be impeding your sleep without you even realizing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The fix: <\/strong>Consult your physician “when there’s a problem with insomnia<\/a> for more than two weeks,” says Monti. They can put together a treatment plan that works for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The bottom line: Feeling tired in the morning after a full night’s sleep isn’t normal, so you shouldn’t have to live with it. Start by evaluating your alcohol, diet, and caffeine habits as well as the state of your bedroom\u2014then try talking to your doctor if you still don’t see an improvement in your sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\nYour bedroom isn’t designed for sleep<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
