Do you often wake up feeling tired, even though you’ve slept long enough? Do you have trouble falling asleep, or do you often lie awake at night? You’re not alone. Many people struggle with sleep problems or feel tired during the day.

Hoe zorg je ervoor dat jij weer fit door het leven kan gaan?

Hoe ontstaat vermoeidheid?

Er zijn veel oorzaken waardoor je slecht slaapt. Denk bijvoorbeeld aan:

Stress of veel piekeren
Onregelmatige werktijden
Veel schermgebruik voor het slapen
Cafeïne of energiedrankjes in de avond
Weinig beweging overdag
Een onregelmatig slaapritme

Naast vermoeidheid kan een slechte nachtrust ook je concentratie en je reactievermogen verslechteren. Daarnaast kan langdurige vermoeidheid ervoor zorgen dat je minder lekker in je vel zit en moeite hebt om met drukte of veranderingen om te gaan.

Wat kun je zelf doen om beter te slapen?

Om vermoeidheid tegen te gaan is ‘genoeg’ slapen niet altijd voldoende. Probeer bijvoorbeeld:

Iedere dag rond hetzelfde tijdstip naar bed te gaan
Overdag voldoende te bewegen
Een uur voor het slapen je telefoon of tablet weg te leggen
Cafeïne en energiedrank in de avond te vermijden
Je slaapkamer koel, donker en rustig te houden
Een vast avondritueel te creëren, zodat je lichaam weet dat het tijd is om te ontspannen

Lukt het ondanks deze tips niet om beter te slapen? Dan kan het helpen om niet alleen naar je slaap te kijken, maar ook naar de oorzaken erachter: stress, spanning, voeding, beweging en ontspanning hangen namelijk allemaal met elkaar samen.
