💤 Trouble Getting to Sleep?

Many people lie in bed at night feeling tired—but unable to drift off. This common issue, called sleep onset insomnia, can make bedtime frustrating and leave you feeling drained the next day.


😟 Why It Matters

Trouble falling asleep isn’t just annoying—it can seriously affect your health and well-being. It can:

  • Raise the risk of chronic illnesses

  • Impair concentration and memory

  • Leave you feeling exhausted and unmotivated

Getting to sleep more easily can dramatically improve your quality of life.
