Every adult wakes up several times every single night. Most don’t notice-they turn over and return to sleep. As we get older these awakenings last a bit longer in part because sleep becomes lighter, and we carry more worries to bed with us!
What I recommend to most first assess how you feel in the morning and throughout your day. If you have ample energy and motivation, those wakeups aren’t causing sleep loss. So next wake up recall that it’s a normal process accompanying aging, turn over and go back to sleep :)
If you are feeling tired or dragging all day then we have to have a different conversation.
