Poor sleep (insomnia) can be caused by several factors, such as stress, anxiety, medications, illness, among others.
Insomnia means being without sleep for several hours, but sometimes we sleep, but the sleep is light (not very restful). There are people who wake up several times during the night, and who sleep lightly. Any slight noise wakes them up.
Types of insomnia include onset insomnia (trouble falling asleep), maintenance insomnia (trouble staying asleep), and behavioral insomnia of childhood.
There are other types of sleep disorders, such as restless legs syndrome, parasomnia, narcolepsy, and sleep apnea.
For severe cases, you should seek help from a sleep doctor or psychologist.
For mild cases, you can start by doing yoga, meditating, and trying to worry less. Do not take worries into bed, don't eat a heavy meal two hours before bed, or drink coffee at night.
Avoid watching TV or looking at your smartphone, as the light from these devices can disrupt your sleep-wake cycle.
Products to help you sleep fall into categories such as: EMS devices for sleep aid, earplugs that reduce up to 30% of sound, sleep patches with melatonin, and sleep pils (natural herbal remedies such as valerian, California poppy and lavender).
For me, I am a light sleeper and sensitive to noise.
The simple sound of a dog barking in the street (even if it's soft) bothers me. Even though I feel psychologically thinking about it, and even though the tiredness is strong, I can't sleep.
What kind of methods do I use?
I take pills that increase melanin production and contain valerian and other plants. I use a melatonin patch to sleep, and I also use ear plugs.
It is also useful, in these cases, to have some hypnotherapy sessions to help us "reprogram" the brain to ignore such noises.
I tested the watch that electromagnetically stimulates (EMS), it has two electrodes. I tested this microcurrent gadget and it really helped me out.
This study provides initial electrophysiological evidence of changes in brain activity associated with reduced arousal (and thus greater sleepiness).
Research has demonstrated that the application of a low-intensity, direct current that delivers monophasic or biphasic pulsed microamperage currents across the brain can mitigate anxiety, depression, and sleep issues.
Avoid buying a handheld device, because when you fall asleep, you open your hand and turn around on the bed, and the device falls, no longer in contact with your skin. I prefer to wear the watch on my wrist as it remains in place.

Some people may benefit from white noise machines by masking environmental or outside noises that are causing disturbed sleep.
If your room is quiet, it is easier for your brain to pick up on sounds from the outside (dog barking, cars, etc.
In a quiet environment, you can hear everything and assign a value to it.
In a room with background white noise, it "masks" the other noises.
Obviously, it does not work for everyone, as we are all emotionally and psychologically different.
