10. Too intense exercise

Prolonged or very high-intensity exercise late at night may make it hard for some people to fall asleep. If you’re staying up late to squeeze in an extra hour or two of exercise and you think it may be keeping you up, see if you sleep better after an earlier workout.

11. Video games

Electronic media that requires a lot of interaction – like video games – can definitely wreak havoc on your slumber.

Anything that’s highly engaging will almost certainly keep you awake. Stimulation from these devices can activate and excite the brain, which presents a challenge when it comes to trying to fall asleep.
