The Invisible Effects of Disrupted Sleep

Do you wake up several times a night for no apparent reason? This isn’t trivial. While occasional poor sleep isn’t a big deal, when it becomes a habit, it can  gradually affect  your mood, concentration, and even your physical stamina.

Why? Because during the night, your body  replenishes its reserves of minerals, vitamins, and other essential resources. Imagine: if you don’t regularly replenish a reservoir, it will eventually empty. The result? Persistent  fatigue  , a dull complexion, weakened immunity… and low morale.

Melatonin, the nighttime ally to pamper

Among the key elements of good sleep, one hormone plays a central role: melatonin. Naturally produced by our brains as soon as night falls, it regulates our internal clock. But certain factors can slow down its production:  prolonged exposure to screens , smoking, hormonal imbalances, or even certain eating habits.

Good news  : it’s possible to take care of it on a daily basis. By avoiding heavy meals in the evening, reducing  blue light  before bed, and establishing a calming routine, you can promote natural falling asleep and a deeper sleep.

Sleeping posture: what your position reveals… and causes

We don’t always think about it, but the way we sleep has a real impact on our well-being. And some sleeping positions are far from being as harmless as we think!
