This study aims to describe the quality of sleep in cigarette addicts, especially among young adults aged 18-24 years. Smoking, which has become a habit for many individuals, can cause dependence, one of which is caused by nicotine which disrupts sleep quality. Based on WHO data (2015), Indonesia is one of the countries with the largest number of smokers in the world, which has an impact on physical and psychological health, including sleep disorders. This research used a quantitative approach with descriptive methods and survey techniques by distributing The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire to 12 respondents. The results showed that 100% of respondents experienced poor sleep quality, with the majority experiencing sleep disturbances less than once a week and daytime activity dysfunction more than three times a week. This research confirms the relationship between cigarette addiction and poor sleep quality in young adults. Based on these findings, it is recommended that smokers avoid nicotine before bed, establish a regular sleep schedule, and create a relaxing sleep routine to improve the quality of their sleep.

Sleep disorders or insomnia refer to a condition where individuals struggle to achieve adequate sleep in terms of both quality and quantity. Insomnia sufferers often experience fatigue and drowsiness throughout the day due to a lack of optimal rest. Based on its duration, insomnia is classified into acute insomnia, lasting less than four weeks, and chronic insomnia, which persists for more than four weeks. One non-pharmacological approach to managing this issue is relaxation therapy, including the use of aromatherapy, which promotes a calming effect through pleasant scents. This community service program aims to provide awareness about the benefits of aromatherapy in managing insomnia. The methods used include health education, discussions, and Q&A sessions with participants. The target audience consisted of 12 elderly individuals experiencing sleep disturbances. The evaluation results indicated a significant improvement in participants' knowledge after the session, with 91.7% demonstrating a good understanding, while 8.3% had a moderate understanding of aromatherapy’s benefits. These findings suggest that educating the elderly on the use of aromatherapy for insomnia management positively impacts their awareness of relaxation therapy’s role in improving sleep quality. It is hoped that this method can be continuously promoted as an effective natural alternative to address sleep disorders.

We as humans often skip our cell phones and use them for too long as they are always around us and a part of our lives. Excessive and improper use of cell phones, however, can cause various negative impacts, one of which is a decline in health. Cell phones emit radio frequencies when in use, which produces excessive radiation that can cause many side effects, such as disrupting sleep patterns and sleep quality. This study aims to determine how cell phone radiation affects the human body when falling asleep. This research was conducted using a qualitative method, using a descriptive approach and analyzing previous literature. The results showed that exposure to electromagnetic radiation from cell phones can affect a person's sleep quality, especially for those who use them too often. The level of influence is different for each person, but this radiation is not strong enough to cause serious effects like X-rays because it is not ionized. Nevertheless, it can cause sleep problems and headaches. It is recommended to keep a safe distance from cell phones while sleeping and limit cell phone use before bedtime to reduce the risk.
