The amount of good sleep that you have at night determines to a large extent how productive you will be in the day. It also influences how happy and relaxed you will feel. Also, sometimes we cannot sleep as a result of activities we engage in. Jet lag is a typical environmental cause of insomnia. When you move to a new environment or if you have to sleep in a room that's stuffy and hot, you probably won't get much sleep either.

Events that occur could also cause us to loss sleep. If you've lost a loved one or a job or a home or something really precious, there are tendencies that you will be depressed and this will stop you from sleeping.

There are also some activities that are best avoided before bedtime. When you smoke cigarettes, watch television late into the night or drink beverages that contain caffeine, you are living an unhealthy lifestyle and will soon start exhibiting insomnia symptoms. It's best to avoid these activities late in the evening and at night.
