The importance of sleep cannot be underestimated. Scientifically it has been proven that man
spends a good percentage of his time on earth sleeping. Sleep is of important
since it is the time in which the essential body activities take place. It is
the time in which the brain gets ample time for development, the excretory
organs are able to remove toxins from the body and the tissue repair of damage
tissues takes place. This is the time in which the lactic acid that has
accumulated from the muscles is removed. That is why when you wake up in the
morning you feel fresh compared to how you were feeling yesterday. If you do
not get enough sleep most likely you will notice your speech being impaired,
and have memory lapse due to poor brain development. You will also feel very
tired since the lactic acid that has accumulated in the muscles has not been
removed.
There are specific cases that man might desire to sleep or
get better sleep but it is not
possible. This might be of the activities that you have been undertaking and
have had an effect on the body and has disrupted the normal sleeping pattern of
that person. During this time, man is most likely going to develop a condition
known as insomnia. Insomnia is a condition in which a person does not get any
sleep or if he gets some sleep, it is not better sleep.
Insomnia can result from different issues. The food a person
eats can lead to insomnia. For example drinking coffee or tea before going to
bed can increase the alertness of the brain causing sleep to become a problem.
Frequent use of tea or coffee before bedtime can easily lead to insomnia.
Stress and depression can also lead to insomnia. It is not easy for a person to
sleep especially if one is stressed. Since the brain is alert and thinking
about the issues that are disturbing this person, most likely the person will
find sleeping very uncomfortable. If the person manages to sleep, he/she will
be disrupted with nightmares which lead to poor sleep quality hence insomnia.
There are various ways you can be able to overcome insomnia. Use of sleeping
herbs such as oat straw and medical marijuana can encourage sleeping. Use of
sleeping pills can also help but may lead to addiction. You can be able to use
music therapy by listening to sleep music. It might also help to some extent.
The best way to overcome
insomnia is by tackling the problem head on. The problem might be arising
from you excess weight. Most people experience insomnia because of the
complications arising from excess weight. When you have excess weight, most of
the times one develops breathing problems. This might be due to accumulation of
fat all over the body. The stress subjected on other body organs can also lead
to insomnia. If the body is not comfortable it will subject the brain to
stress. Since the brain is an important organ in relation to sleep, it will not
be easy for you to get sleep.
In order to deal with excess weight so that you can overcome insomnia and improve your sleep, you have to lose weight and use natural sleep aids. Lose of weight is not a
hard task; there are different weight loss diets that you can be able to use to
cut down on weight. Most people tend to assume when it comes to losing weight
you have to avoid eating especially before going to bed. The truth is the body
has different hormones that are able to check the energy levels on the body. If
you sleep without eating any food, you will have to wake up and grab something
to eat in order to restore the energy levels to normal.
The best thing is to engage in proper weight loss diet.
Visit a dietician to give you guidance on how to eat if you want to lose
weight. Most likely he/she will advise on fruits and vegetables frequently with
a lot of water. You will also have to exercise frequently if you want to lose
considerable weight after a very short time.
If you want to improve
your sleep, you better lose weight. Having
the right weight according to body mass index will help you avoid breathing
problems and subjecting the entire body to stress which can easily lead to
insomnia.
