Insomnia?

[elila]

Since I started martial arts about a year ago, I've developed better habits- drinking water, less sweets, no soda, etc.

But for some reason I've started having sleeping problems. I lie awake for hours but I just can't sleep. It started when I took later classes that start at 7 PM but don't usually end until 9:30 0r 10:00

Could late excersize keep someone awake?This is really bothering me because I'm so tired and irritable when I wake up and throughout the day.

Yes, it can. Exercize right before bed and your energy level will be high. Try doing something to bring your energy level down, like standing or sitting meditation, so that you're cutting down on things that keep your energy level up.. some activity that forces you into inactivity for a bit and clears out the excess activity that will keep your mind racing. Don't know if that'll work completely but it's worth a try. You can also try getting up earlier and doing a little bit of physical stuff in the morning, lock your bedtime and waking time down across the week. Even if it's Saturday, you will wake up at the same time. Helps teach you to fall asleep when it's time to.
