Sleep During Financial Stress

There’s nothing like a good night’s sleep to relax and rejuvenate your body and mind. However, getting quality sleep while experiencing financial stress is easier said than done. According to research, more than 60% of Indians admitted financial challenges affected their ability to sleep well.

It is no surprise that there is a positive relationship between good financial practices and sound sleep. We all have gone through this cycle where the moment you lay down on your bed, your mind starts churning thoughts about what happened during the day? How much did you accomplish? What is on your to-do list for tomorrow and what not?

A good indicator of financial stress is when you start experiencing stress and anxiety because of your financial condition or when you’re worried about providing for yourself and the family members dependent on you. Financial stress can also harm your body and cause headaches, blood pressure, digestive issues, and depression.

It is difficult to sleep when you are stressed. However, with some effort, you too can sleep like a baby.

Once you put to sleep on your priority list, the following tips will help you improve your sleep quality.


Keep a check on your finances.

The best thing you can do is confront your problems head-on. This process begins with priorities. Make a list of things you can not afford to pay each month, e.g., Rent, EMIs, bills, food etc. Make a budget for the month and try to stick to it. And though no matter how tempting that deal from your favourite shopping portal is, try to refrain from any impulsive shopping. Also, make sure you are ready for financial emergencies.

                                                      

Takes steps to relieve stress

Stress is another crucial aspect that can affect your sleep quality. Therefore, you must take steps that help reduce stress. Practise meditation for at least 30 minutes daily and try to fit in 8 hours of sleep even if you are busy. You can use aromatic essential oils to improve the health of the body, mind, and spirit. Oils like Lavender, Rose, Orange blossom, and Vetiver can enhance your physical and emotional health and put you in a great mood. Aromatherapy is available in essential oils, scented candles, diffusers, aromatic spritzers, inhalers, bathing salts, body oils, creams, massage lotions, facial steamers, etc.


Create a comfortable sleeping environment.

Take measures to keep the light and noise out of your bedroom. Maintaining an ideal room temperature can ensure you get a good night’s sleep. Make sure you pick a mattress that suits your needs. If you still find difficulty in sleeping, then take the help of your doctor to treat your insomnia.


Avoid discussing money at bedtime.

Any conversations at night about stress-related issues, such as discussing money won’t get you anywhere. Therefore, it is advisable to have conversations about paying bills, debts, or saving for your child’s education in the morning.

                                                                                        

Worrying about money can keep anyone up all night. However, along with the tips mentioned above, financial stress and sleep can be handled effectively.
