However, the experienced construction manager understands that it involves a lot of details and understands that some very important decisions can make a big difference.

For many career women, the biggest concern about sleep deprivation is the negative impact it can have on their work. It’s also important to be aware of the detrimental effect a lack of sleep can have on health, relationships and happiness. Sleep deprivation is a serious issue and should not be brushed aside.

What is causing your sleep deprivation? Finding a solution to common causes can help improve your life and, subsequently, your career. If these solutions are ineffective for you, make an appointment with your doctor.

1. Snoring

Snoring, whether your own or someone else’s, is an extremely common cause of sleep deprivation. It’s important to determine whether the snoring is caused by a serious condition called sleep apnea, where you temporarily stop breathing throughout the night. If the snoring is not caused by sleep apnea, it could be the result of a blocked or stuffy nose or vibrations in the palate or uvula. Laser and radio frequency procedures are available to help treat snoring caused by these conditions and are quite effective.

2. Alcohol

Many people rely on a “nightcap” before bed, with the idea that it will help them nod off to sleep. The truth is that alcohol can actually have the opposite effect. Although you may feel tired initially, you may wake up only a few hours later, unable to get back to sleep. If the sleep loss isn’t connected to the alcohol, you may try again the next night, perpetuating a cycle. If you are having trouble sleeping, especially with early waking, and you are in the habit of drinking a nightcap, stop. Although it may take a little longer to get to sleep, once you fall asleep you will sleep deeper and get more rest.

3. Medication

Some medications can cause sleeplessness. Even some herbs and vitamins … Continue reading >>>
