Insomnia: Insomnia can be due to many factors ; so it's recommended you consult a sleep medicine specialist to get to the root of it. You can start by improving your sleep hygiene - no nicotine, caffeine, alcohol, bright lights, or electronics (tv, computer, smart phone, etc) prior to bedtime. Make a habit to wake up ; fall asleep at the same time everyday. Underlying medical issues are important also.

Sleep hygiene is key: 1.Keep regular bed & waking time (even weekends). Rise same time each day, regardless of time you fell asleep. 2. Develop relaxing bedtime routine: warm bath/shower, aromatherapy, reading, or listening to gentle music. 3. Sleep in dark, quiet, cool room w comfortable mattress & pillows. 4. Bedroom is only for sleep & sex. No work materials, computers, & TV in room. 5. Finish eating at least 2-3 hr
