Why do you snooze on the couch but wake up in bed?

Why do you snooze on the couch but wake up in bed?

Ever wonder why you snooze on the couch but become a wide-awake owl in bed? It’s all about your brain’s tricks! Your couch is a chill zone, while your bed feels like a sleep exam. To ace that test, keep your bed for sleep only, ditch the screens, and stick to a bedtime routine. If sleep eludes you, get up for a bit and try again when you're drowsy.

Quick rundown

  1. Couches can be more sleep-friendly than beds.
  2. The brain associates spaces with specific states.
  3. Trying too hard to sleep can backfire.
  4. Sleep inertia helps transition between sleep and wakefulness.
  5. Simple actions can retrain the brain for better sleep.
