Sleeping Troubles

Sleeping troubles. This is a complaint we often receive from clients. Insomnia, the mid-afternoon slump, trouble falling asleep, waking up multiple times throughout the night, etc.

If you experience sleeping troubles, there are Ayurvedic options for you

Day-sleeping is generally contraindicated, as we have mentioned in our posts previously. However, there are exceptions to this rule. If you are exhausted from physical activity, excessive singing, study, after walking long distances, emaciated, weak, or elderly to name a few.

To avoid afternoon sleep, we must ensure our nightly sleeping routine is adequate for the body to fully rest and restore

Do you have trouble falling asleep? Check out a few recommendations below

• Warm milk and ghee

• Embracing your beloved

• Free and unattached mind

• Sugarcane juice

• Massage

What are some of the causes of insomnia from an Ayurvedic perspective?
