The point at which sleep is disturbed due to temperature or climate conditions varies from person to person. Typically, temperatures above 75 and lower than 54 will keep you up. Try heavy draperies or a light-blocking shade to keep you from getting up before you need to. If you have to sleep in the daytime, try using heavy eyeshades. Turn down that volume-everyone reacts differently to different sound levels.
Women are more likely than men to awaken to sounds in the night.
Sudden noise can cause your blood pressure to rise and lower the supply of blood to your heart. Noises at levels as low as 40 decibels and as high as 70 decibels can keep us awake. Some things we cannot help, such as the barking dog next door or the rowdy neighbors on the other side. Some things you can-like sleeping with the television on and a dripping faucet. Many partners do not fall asleep to the same things-some may prefer music, others may prefer silence.
