Getting enough sleep is essential for good health, but there are lifestyle choices that can get in the way.

The American Psychological Association mentions these factors that can affect sleep:

• Stress at work, school, at home or with family.
• Exercising late in the day or engaging in mentally strenuous activities just before bed.
• Drinking caffeinated or alcoholic beverages in the evening or afternoon.
• Lack of a consistent bedtime and waking schedule.
• Being a shift worker or traveling.
• An uncomfortable (too hot or too cold, too bright, too noisy) room.
• Being woken by children or your partner.
