Extreme temperatures, noisy surroundings, or an uncomfortable mattress can lead to restless murmuring during the night.
What You Can Do
Monitor your sleep: Keep a sleep diary or record nighttime sounds to identify patterns.
Manage stress: Relaxation techniques, meditation, or deep breathing before bed can reduce nighttime complaints.
Check your health: Consult a doctor if groaning is frequent, loud, or accompanied by pauses in breathing, pain, or daytime fatigue.
Improve sleep hygiene: Maintain a consistent sleep schedule, create a dark and quiet bedroom, and use a comfortable mattress and pillow.
When to Seek Medical Advice
Loud, repeated groaning or complaints with gasping or choking.
Persistent insomnia or daytime sleepiness.
New onset of pain or discomfort affecting sleep quality.
Your body may be using these sleep complaints as signals that stress, discomfort, or a sleep disorder is affecting you. Paying attention can help improve both sleep quality and overall health.
