Number three, low blood sugar. Did you know that low
blood sugar can cause your brain to wake you up
in the middle of the night? Your brain is very active during the night as it regenerates, repairs, and converts your short-term memories into long-term memories while you sleep. However, since it’s so
active during the night, it also uses up a lot
of your energy reserves. If you suffer from low blood sugar levels, your brain will consume
most of your energy reserves and think that you’ve run out of fuel. As a result, your brain
will release cortisol to make you hungry and wake you up so you can go get something to eat. If you find yourself routinely waking up and going to the kitchen to root around for a midnight snack, you may have low blood sugar levels and this might be the cause
of your sleep disturbances.
If you’re having trouble
sleeping through the night and waking up at odd hours do you now have a better sense of why this is happening to you? What are other reasons
you think could be waking you up at 3:00 am and 5:00 am? Share your thoughts with

If You Always Wake Up Between 3 – 5AM, Here’s Why
(bright guitar music)
(writing utensils scratching) (ding) – [Amanda] Hey to Psych2Goers, and welcome back to another video. Are you having trouble
getting a full night’s rest? Do you go to bed at 11:00 pm hoping for a good night’s
sleep but wind up waking somewhere between 3:00
am and 5:00 am instead? (yawns) Do you feel tired, foggy, and sluggish when you don’t get enough sleep? A good night’s sleep is very
important for your health. Are you struggling to get enough sleep at night because of this? If so, let’s find out
what may be interfering with your natural sleep patterns. Number one, your lifestyle choices. How much of your daily and nightly routine do you build around ensuring
a good night’s sleep? Your daily and nightly routines are what will help determine how
well you sleep at night. These five things can
disturb your sleep patterns. Drinking caffeine or
alcohol before going to bed. Eating food right before bedtime.
Staying up late on your
phone or your computer. Taking a nap too late
in the day and smoking. Though we all wanna stay up to date on Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok. When you stay up late checking your feed and scrolling through your phone, it’ll only make getting to
sleep that much harder for you. And with the business of your day, you might start to feel
run down and droopy-eyed. But if you lie down and take a nap in the late afternoon or early
evening, you’ll be too alert and awake by bedtime to
even be able to go to sleep. If you struggle with waking
up in the middle of the night, think about your daily
and nightly routines and try to weed out some bad habits that may be hindering you from getting proper sleep at night. If you make the changes you
need for a good night’s rest then you’ll be well on your way to sleeping through the night. Number two, your emotional state. Can you recall a period when you slept well every single night? Did you have better
sleep during a lighter, happier time in your life? Your emotional state
has a significant effect on how you sleep and
your quality of sleep.
Your emotional state
can be left in turmoil if you’re experiencing a
time of heightened stress or anxiety, and this can
lead to sleep disturbances. Stress and anxiety trigger your ingrained fighter flight feeling. This will elevate your heart rate, quicken your breathing, and increase the stress
hormones in your body. All of which makes it more difficult for you to sleep peacefully. If you’re struggling with
sleep and anxiety in your life, try a guided meditation before bedtime. Deep breathing exercises will also help you relax enough for sleep. Taking a hot shower or bath will help distress you enough to wind down properly for bedtime. These tips can help you
with your stress or anxiety and in turn, help you fall
asleep and stay asleep.
Number three, low blood sugar. Did you know that low
blood sugar can cause your brain to wake you up
in the middle of the night? Your brain is very active during the night as it regenerates, repairs, and converts your short-term memories into long-term memories while you sleep. However, since it’s so

However, the findings may need
to be interpreted with caution, since nearly half of the studies
didn’t define and adhere to a well-planned exercise regimen
in the control group. Furthermore, an exercise intervention
comparable in intensity to yoga was followed only in three
out of the eight studies included. And, for what it’s worth,
The majority of the studies, six out of eight, were from India. When yoga was carefully
compared to sham yoga, which consisted of chair exercises,
standing exercises, and slow walking to match
the yoga session, the relative yoga
benefits evaporated.
Both yoga and sham yoga had identical effects
on blood sugar status. Hence, further well-controlled
Randomized trials are required prior to drawing conclusions
about the benefits of yoga in comparison to physical exercise
in patients with diabetes. Similar tentative conclusions were
reached for yoga for osteoarthritis. Put all the studies together
and yoga may indeed be effective for improving pain, function,
and stiffness in individuals with osteoarthritis of the knee,
compared not only to doing nothing but compared
to other kinds of exercise. They had some issues with
the quality of some of the studies, and so only a weak recommendation
for the use of yoga for osteoarthritis, but hey, if you like yoga or if yoga
is the only kind of exercise you’re willing to do, then
It’s probably better than nothing. Finally, in this video,
Let’s look at the effects of yoga compared to active and inactive
controls meaning like compared to other exercise regimens
or just like doing nothing on physical function and
health-related quality of life in adults aged 60 and older. Compared to doing nothing,
They found clear evidence that yoga improves physical function
and psychological well-being in older adults, so it definitely
better than nothing.
What about compared
to other exercises? Yoga pulled ahead for lower limb
strength and lower body flexibility, but for improving balance,
mobility, and walking speed, yoga appeared comparable. Psychologically, yoga appeared
to beat out other exercises for alleviating depression
in older adults, but not anxiety or perceived
mental health in general.
Conditioned by judgmental parents at an early age. You may struggle with worry and fear of what others think about you. Their emphasis is on the opinion of others instead of on social initiatives and family sociability. This may lead to social anxiety. #5 You are overly cautious. Did your parents tend to constantly check on you when you’re not around them? If you have overprotective parents,
there’s a chance that you may be overly cautious. This is because having overprotective parents may condition you at a young age to be wary of everything. It can lead to having a certain worry and fear of things that are unknown to you. Although it can be beneficial to be overly cautious at times. It can also lead to a lot of anxiety. #6 You fear relationships. Do you find yourself scared about forming relationships? This fear may have stemmed from growing up in a separated family. Since you may fear that your current relationships will end up with the same outcome. Having neglectful parents could also cause you to fear relationships… …because it could make you think that your partner will neglect you in the same way. And #7 You doubt yourself.
Have you ever said to yourself… What if I’m doing it wrong? Or am I making a mistake? Your parents’ constant criticism of your ability…can result in you developing constant self-doubt as you grow up. This will also cause you to have a higher risk of developing anxiety disorders in childhood. Do you relate to any of these signs? Let us know in the comments below!
