We've all had those restless nights of tossing and turning, staring at the ceiling, unable to get more than a couple hours of shuteye.

The more you worry about not sleeping, the more your mind races, and next thing you know, the sun is peeking through the window.

I've spent one too many nights this way and needed to put an end to my poor sleeping patterns. I came across this delicious tea recipe and it improved my cycle completely.

Irregular sleeping patterns or even insomnia can stem from several different things like depression, stress and anxiety.

Almost every night, I would get into bed and my mind would be racing. Whether I was thinking about work, family, or simply the things I needed to get done the next day, I just couldn't allow myself to relax.

If your mind is active, chances are you won't fall asleep.

Certain medications can also cause insomnia.

Pain medications, antihistamines, and heart and blood pressure medicines are among the many that contribute to sleep loss.

Yes, some meds might actually make you drowsy at first, but they can also trigger frequent bathroom trips or anxiety which can further disturb your rest.

Whether it's one of these issues or maybe it's that you're addicted to your phone when you should be sleeping, something needs to change.
