These clients are people who have suffered from insomnia. I receive feedback’s from customers who have tried many of my programs and found that their health conditions have improved as nothing has worked before.

In fact, one recent client cleverly wrote, “You’ll notice I’m sending you this email at 7:00 in the evening and not 3:00 in the morning.” For anyone who’s suffered from insomnia, these words ring true.

Put simply, insomnia is refers to difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, and waking several times per night with impaired functioning during waking hours for one month or longer. It is considered a symptom of any number of sleep, health or psychiatric disorders.

Side effects of insomnia can include feeling tired or even falling asleep during the day, feeling un-refreshed upon waking, confusion, muscle fatigue, double vision and irritability.

Causes of insomnia fall into two categories – primary and secondary. Primary insomnia is insomnia which does not have a known mental or physical cause. People who suffer from primary insomnia can usually trace the cause back to stress, physical exercise to close to bedtime or stimulants such as caffeine, or drugs, such as alcohol.

Secondary insomnia is caused by and underlying medical condition. Some of these conditions include depression (very high on the list), fibromyalgia, restless legs syndrome, menstruation and menopause (due to hormone shifts), and any injury which causes chronic pain.

This is similar to sleep disturbance such as sleep apnea or snoring. Most of the people know by themselves the symptoms of insomnia but they don’t know that they are not able to sleep.

The patient might be referred to consult a sleep specialist. When you approach a doctor regarding this doctor might diagnose about the medicines which the patient is taking and the stimulants that he is using and sleep habits of the patient.

Even though all medicines causes’ side effects the treatments include medications. Mostly people who consume alcohol or people using sleeping pills make their insomnia worse because they support the sleep cycles. Treatments for this insomnia often include drugs over the sleep aides.

Things you can do to help discourage insomnia include avoiding alcohol, avoiding or coping with stress and/or anxiety (some people find relief by keeping a journal where they can write out their issues), avoiding caffeine (or even limiting it to daytime hours), exercising at least 2 hours before bedtime, avoiding naps (power naps lasting 10-15 minutes are still OK), going to bed at the same time each day, only using your bed for sleeping and sex and massage therapy.

As age changes our time amount of sleeping also changes ex. For some people 5 hours is enough to sleep, some need 11 hours to sleep.

Make sure you do it naturally. In my next insomnia program the natural exercises are given perfectly for a person who needs good sleep.
