Sometimes you wake up at night with a busy mind, a tense body, or a feeling of being rushed. This is nighttime overstimulation: your nervous system remains active while you're trying to rest.
It occurs in children, adults, and the elderly — especially after busy or emotionally intense days.
Fortunately, there is a lot you can do to reduce this stimulus stress.
What causes nighttime overstimulation?
- a busy day
- tension or worries
- screen use before bed
- sensory overload
- emotional events
- changes in routine
The body is simply not “out” yet.
How deep pressure helps with this
Deep pressure:
- stabilizes breathing
- lowers stress hormones
