Suffering from insomnia?
Insomnia, or sleeplessness, can take a real toll on your health and wellbeing, leaving you tired and irritable, or in extreme cases unable to function properly during the day.It can strike at any age and sufferers can have difficulty falling asleep, can wake frequently during the night or early in the morning, and can often feel tired after sleep and not refreshed.
Insomnia can affect people in different ways, and while some may have trouble sleeping for a week or so during a stressful period in their life, others can suffer for months at a time.
As well as affecting your psychological state, sleep problems can also impact you physically, putting you at greater risk of complications like high blood pressure and diabetes. Fortunately, the Yantra Mat can help.
What causes insomnia?
Stress is a major cause of insomnia. Perhaps you're worried about work, or the health of a loved one. Or maybe you're having money problems and they're keeping you awake at night.Underlying mental health problems like depression and anxiety can also play a part, as can physical conditions such as arthritis, heart disease and asthma.
If you smoke or drink alcohol frequently, your sleep patterns can suffer, while certain medicines such as hormone replacement therapy and non-steroidal anti-inflammatories may contribute to insomnia too.
Whatever the cause, sleeping difficulties can affect your life in a number of ways, and though it can be tempting to reach for the sleeping pills, there are better, more natural ways to cure insomnia.
