Believe it or not, our brains take cues from the little actions we do prior to going to sleep. For example, brushing your teeth, selecting your p.j.'s, taking out the clothing you wish to wear for the next day - all give a signal to your brain that you are preparing for sleep.
It might be a good idea to have a sleep diary. There are those who say that they need to have 10 hours of sleep to feel refreshed, and there are others who say that 8 hours works for them. These requirements depend upon the person. The takeaway from this is just because someone states they get 8 hrs. every night, doesn't mean that is the length of time that you need. I can write more about this, but in the meantime, a consideration to have is do you believe that you receive enough sleep each night?
