Many people have trouble getting to sleep at night. Other people wake up often during the night. Still others wake up very early in the morning and can’t get back to sleep again. These people all have insomnia. That is, they don’t sleep well. People with insomnia are very tired during the day and they are often unhappy, anxious, or just sleepy. This may have a bad effect on their family life or their work. It can also be dangerous to other people. For example, a bus driver with insomnia may fall asleep while driving.
There are two types of insomnia. The first is caused by thoughts and feelings. It happens to almost everyone at some point. You may be worried about a problem, or you may be nervous about an exam. You keep thinking and thinking, and your brain won’t go to sleep. But this usually doesn’t last long. When the problem is solved or the exam is over, the insomnia usually goes away, too.
The second type of insomnia has physical causes. You may be drinking too much coffee or tea. Even a small amount of coffee can cause insomnia in some people. Your evening meal habits can also affect your sleep. A large meal late in the evening can keep you awake. A lot of alcohol in the evening is also not a good idea. It may help you fall asleep, but later you may not sleep well. Smoking is another habit that can cause insomnia. In fact, the nicotine in cigarettes wakes you up.
In general, you’ll sleep better if you lead a healthy life. Exercise is good for your health in general, and it helps you get a good night’s sleep. A regular bedtime and waking time are also important. It’s easier for your body to fall asleep at about the same time every night.

People tend to buy stock shares if the economy is robust. Otherwise they put their money in a savings account, where it earns interests.

There are many kinds of mutual funds, and some are more aggressive than others, but they are all managed by experts called fund managers who use their judgment as well as experience to decide where to put your money to avoid unnecessary risks.
