Frequent wakings can harm your health. Minimize nighttime bathroom breaks, get used to a CPAP machine if you have sleep apnea, and relax hypervigilance to sleep better.

I ran into this article and had to share (gifted/free). It is something that I personally had a problem with and was completely unaware until I spoke to my doctor about it. I was lucky enough to adapt to using a CPAP machine quite easily and it made a huge difference in my health, work and overall quality of life.

WaPo: 3 ways to stop waking up frequently during the night and improve sleep

The article suggests ways to address the following:

Minimize bathroom breaks

Desensitize yourself to CPAP

Relax hypervigilance

Even if you don’t suffer now, or you don’t think it is a big deal (it probably is!), it is good to know in advance what signs to look for and things you can do now to help prevent it from becoming an issue for you or a loved one at all.
