7 Common Sleep Mistakes & How to Fix Them Naturally

By Nomra Editorial

Even after 8 hours of sleep, do you wake up feeling groggy, tense, or just… off? You’re not alone. Millions of people sleep poorly — not because they don’t spend enough time in bed, but because they make small sleep mistakes that sabotage real rest.

Let’s break down 7 of the most common sleep mistakes — and how you can fix them with natural, science-backed solutions.

😵💫 1. Using Screens Before Bed

Blue light from phones, tablets, and TVs delays melatonin production — making it harder to fall asleep.

Fix:
Put your phone away 30–60 minutes before bed. Use a self-heating eye mask to relax and block out artificial light naturally.

😴 2. No Wind-Down Routine

If you go from chaos to bed with no transition, your brain stays wired.

Fix:
Try a 15-minute pre-sleep ritual with calming tools. A weighted blanket helps your nervous system shift into rest mode naturally.

💨 3. Sleeping Flat with Reflux or Snoring

If you wake up with a sore throat or struggle with GERD/snoring, your sleeping position could be to blame.

Fix:
Elevate your upper body with a wedge pillow to reduce acid reflux and open your airways.

💧 4. Ignoring Puffy, Tired Eyes

Dry, swollen eyes can make you feel drained — even after good sleep.

Fix:
Use a silk cooling eye mask to de-puff and relax the sensitive under-eye area while blocking out light.

🧠 5. Anxious Thoughts at Night

Overthinking? Stress spikes at night and prevents deep sleep.

Fix:
Use an EMS sleep aid device to naturally relax your brain before bed. It uses gentle pulses to calm your nervous system — no medication required.

🕰️ 6. Sleeping In Too Late

Waking up at inconsistent times throws off your circadian rhythm.

Fix:
Set a consistent wake-up time, even on weekends. Use natural light and gentle routines to help your body adjust.

🛏️ 7. Using the Wrong Pillow

Neck or shoulder pain after sleep often points to a pillow issue.

Fix:
Try an orthopaedic memory foam neck pillow that aligns your spine and reduces tension overnight.
