Literally it means the suffering of poor sleep and sleep patterns. Poor sleep impairs our ability to react creatively and appropriately to situations and has a dramatically negative effect on a person's physical health. It leaves someone tired, anxious and feeling emotionally unstable.
In order to go to sleep, we need to relax, so if someone is constantly or suffering from depression, this will prevent the natural process of sleep. People suffering from depression will often over-dream, resulting in exhaustion the next day. In order to compensate for this, the body will sometimes wake them up before too much dreaming has taken place, a problem that is called early-morning-waking syndrome. If someone has suffered disturbed sleep for a while, they can become anxious in advance about whether or not they will have a good night's sleep, which can lead to the problem continuing even after the initial cause has disappeared.
Hypnotherapy is an excellent way of dealing with the problem of insomnia. Whilst sleeping tablets will help in the short term, prolonged use will nullify the effects and greater doses need to be taken. Hypnosis is indeed very relaxing, making sleep come easier and has no harmful side effects. It also helps a person into a healthy sleeping pattern. Your subconscious controls your sleep patterns and has a memory for virtually everything you do, and that includes a memory for nice, deep, restful sleep.
With the use of Hypnotherapy and Self-Hypnosis you can experience significantly improved sleep, mood, and energy. By learning to successfully use the techniques of self-hypnosis, you will take control of your sleep, mind, and body. You will be empowered by the realization that the key to conquering insomnia resides within you therefore you will boost your confidence in your personal power and strengthen your sense of self-esteem, which is fundamental to optimal health and well being.
