do you sleep soundly at night?

Do you enjoy sound sleep in the night? Do you know that insomnia is defined not by the quantity of sleeping hours an individual gets or the length of time he falls asleep because people normally vary in sleeping needs, patterns, and satisfaction.

While shopping for my GPS the other day, I stumbled upon a good read on insomnia. Contrary to what some people think, insomnia is not an illness or disease but a sleeping disorder. Insomnia may consist of poor-quality or inadequate sleep due to difficulty in falling asleep or waking up too early the next day. It may also include restless sleep where one frequently wakes up at night and have trouble going back to sleep.

Treatment for secondary and primary insomnia may include behavioral cognitive therapy, exercise, dietary changes, exercise, meditation, chromatherapy, relaxation, “bright light therapy”, acupuncture, dietary supplements and selection of herbal preparations.

In the next few days, I’ll be covering information on ways to help you get quality sleep and treat insomnia.
