Let s talk about what it s like to have a light sleep.

It's easy to wake up, someone will wake up when they turn on the light, and they will wake up when a gust of wind blows. Frequent sleep deprivation and poor sleep quality.

People who are light sleepers will wake up as long as there is a little sound. When the light shines through the curtains, I wake up. In the middle of the night, when it rained and thundered, I got up to put away my clothes...The sound of the dorm door, the footsteps of passers-by in the hallway, even the slightest snoring could wake me up from my sleep.

When I live at home, I wake up as soon as my parents start making breakfast. Not in the aroma of rice, but in the collision of pots and pans. These experiences, those who can't sleep as soon as they stick to their pillows, you know it or not.

The experience is, people think you have obsessive-compulsive disorder, think you are hypocritical, think you are difficult to get along with, and then you are so painful that I belong to the kind that is difficult to fall asleep, and it is not so easy to be woken up when I really fall asleep, so for me, "falling asleep" is quite serious, when I am studying, when I am in a large dormitory of 10 people, it is basically a bed curtain and earplugs, Changsha is so hot in summer, our dormitory has no air conditioning, I would rather be hot and sweat to pull the bed curtain. ‍‍

Bright light can easily lead to early awakening. Get up and be groggy. But too dark can easily lead to dead sleep, and you can't wake up for half a day.

I now change the curtains to white at home, but I wear an eye mask to sleep every day. Noise, especially the kind of mechanical noise, the sound of air conditioning, the sound of cars on the road, can easily pull people out of their deep sleep. Sometimes I have very strange dreams that go on and on.

When I was a child, I slept very soundly at night, and I don't know when it became the kind of light sleep. What is the experience? It's just that the dormitory is more painful:

I can't fall asleep with the fluorescent lights on. In order to take care of me, my classmates only turned on their own lamps and couldn't sleep. Classmates whispered and couldn't sleep.

I can't sleep with the sound of the mouse. In the middle of the night, I can also be woken up by various sounds, such as grinding teeth and snoring, which has been a victim of it recently. When I am at home, even if the door is closed, I will be woken up in the morning by the sound of footsteps and washing of my family. ‍‍

Every morning, after opening my eyes and looking at the time on my phone, I will silently count the number of hours I have slept; It's annoying to see the mobile phone display 6 o'clock every day; One day, when you see your phone showing 8 o'clock, you have to be so happy. The light shines through the curtains, and I wake up. The grinding of teeth in the dormitory, the slight snoring can really wake people from their sleep.

These experiences, those who can't sleep as soon as they stick to the pillow, you know or not, I really envy you. ‍‍

This is more obvious after having a child, the child will wake up as soon as he turns over, for several years, in fact, he doesn't sleep well, or it's easy to wake up, worried about the child kicking the quilt, worried about whether he wants to get up to pee, and then look at the man who is sleeping next to him, psychological imbalance, the current situation is a little sound, a little light will wake up, and then it is difficult to fall asleep. ‍‍

If I were to say it, I would actually sleep and snore...Will there be a lot of people in the comments who want to hit me? Yes, I slept lightly and snored, so sometimes I was woken up by my own small purring. Now I sleep alone, the community I live in is relatively quiet, and there is no aunt dancing at night, so I sleep well.

I wish everyone to get out of the group life as soon as possible and sleep alone until dark. ‍‍

It's easy to wake up, you can't move at all, and sleeping in the dorm room is torture.

I felt that my sleep was particularly bad, and I was immediately woken up at the slightest movement.

Shallow sleep is mainly manifested by dreaminess, easy awakening, irritability, tiredness, and listlessness during the day.

My sleep is also very light, and I am often woken up by noise, so the quality of sleep is particularly bad.

It felt like I hadn't slept, I had a headache and my whole body was uncomfortable.

In this way, you will not sleep very well, and your whole body will not be so comfortable.

1. About light sleep and dreaming.

First of all, sleep is staged. When sleeping, people are constantly in the cycle of "awakening-light sleep-deep sleep-light sleep-awakening". In other words, everyone has a light sleep at night and wakes up.

The main problem for people who feel that they are sleeping lightly is that they have difficulty falling asleep and it is difficult to continue falling asleep after waking up in the middle of the night.

During the light sleep stage, the person dreams a lot. This is normal. Dreaming generally does not affect the quality of sleep.

By the way, light sleep, like deep sleep, is necessary for maintaining human health.

2. How to fall asleep smoothly.

There are a lot of lifestyle changes that need to be made in order to fall asleep smoothly. The main ones include the following.

Avoid caffeine 5 hours before bedtime. Coffee, tea, cola, and chocolate all contain caffeine.

Do not smoke or drink alcohol before going to bed.

The right bedroom environment.

The bedroom should be well ventilated and at a comfortable temperature (around 20 degrees). The bedroom should be dimly lit and do not sleep with the lights on. Mattresses and pillows should be comfortable. Then, don't work or play in the bedroom.

Relax for half an hour to 1 hour before bedtime. You can listen, take a hot bath, watch, and watch TV. Don't get too excited or nervous before bed.

Wait until you are sleepy before going to sleep. Don't force yourself, you can't sleep, do something light.

Sort of, but don't get a good rest.

Light sleep: A type of sleep degree.

Light sleep refers to a certain amount of slight movement in the human body when a person is sleeping.

Light sleep is in a state of half-awake and half-asleep, which will affect the brain's creative thinking, cause body obesity, slow down the speed of metabolism, speed up aging, make it look pale and bloodless, and breed a large number of wrinkles and dark circles.

In addition, prolonged sleep deprivation can also lower the immune system, which can easily induce gastrointestinal diseases, neurasthenia, colds, etc., and increase the level of cholesterol in the blood. Human sleep is rhythmic, alternating deep sleep and light sleep until you wake up. During the deep sleep period, the cells of the human cerebral cortex are in a state of sufficient rest, which is extremely important for stabilizing emotions, balancing the mind, and restoring energy.

Light sleep: A type of sleep degree.

In fact, light sleep is also a way of sleeping, maybe I have been asleep, but I am often in a light sleep period due to nervous thoughts, and I think I haven't slept. The physiological sleep process of normal people is from light sleep to deep sleep, about 3-5 times per night. This transformation is called the sleep biological clock.

Some patients say they stay up all night and know everything going on in the room. The people around him said that he had snored loudly. In fact, the patient goes from light sleep to deep sleep, and then turns to light sleep when he just wakes up and can never fall back asleep again.

Have actually had a deep sleep. Or if you have a dream, but you don't know it, but you tell that you haven't slept day and night for 1 year or more, it's impossible. The ego causes tension and fear, and as a result, every time you sleep, it aggravates light sleep.

In fact, we dream every day when we sleep, it is just a motor state of the cerebral cortex, and most of us will not realize it when we wake up. That's why we don't feel like we're dreaming every day. In fact, those dreams that can be remembered are only because we may have been too stressed during the day and have not slept well.

It should be said that our brain is always moving during sleep, first of all, the light sleep period, this period of dreams is what we can remember, generally lasting about 30 minutes. In the following period of deep sleep, we are completely unconscious. From a medical point of view, people who feel that they rarely dream are in the best mental state.

So, don't think about what dreams I have today, you don't need to let it affect your life and study. If you often have this situation, then it is recommended that you can drink a glass of milk before going to bed to calm your nerves, and the most important thing is not to rest more than 11 o'clock, because at that time our cerebral cortex is in a state of inhibition, if you do things like watching TV and surfing the Internet to improve its excitability, it will definitely not be conducive to your sleep. I hope my words will be helpful to you and I wish you good health throughout your life.
