The next time you are fidgeting on your bed, trying to fall asleep, but your brain whirring over tomorrow's meetings, shopping lists, pick up and drop downs, what to wear, what to cook, what to eat and other myriad stuff, all you need to do is get up, turn off your mobile phone and leave it outside your bedroom.

For those who sleep with mobile phones by their bedside, beware! Experts have found that having mobile phones around when sleeping can makes one 'hypervigilant'. This means you are likely have disturbed sleep and might end up with other issues like insomnia and other sleeping problems.

Experts also claim that people can sleep better if mobile phones and all other electronic devices are kept outside the bedroom. What more, they warn that sleeping with your mobile by your bed may cause dizziness and headaches.

The biggest glitch about sleeping with mobile phones is the bedroom light emitted from the bright screen of modern phones too. This impedes with the body's natural rhythm, tricking our bodies to believe it's daytime,

The light stimulates retina cells and transmits messages to the brain, tricking our mind to believe 'it's day. Simultaneously your body releases both sleeping and waking hormones, serotonin and cortisol.

The artificial light keeps you awake longer, making you feel tired and inactive the next morning. So next time you're struggling to shut off, don't forget to switch your mobile off.
