We all spend approximately some third of our life asleep. Sleep is an essential bodily function needed to allow rest, recovery and recuperation. Sleep deprivation can lead to a whole list of healthy problems including headaches, irritability, lack of concentration and lowered immune system.

Insomnia is a condition in which either getting to sleep is a difficulty or there are repeared awakenings disturbing the sleep pattern, there are considered to be three types of insomnia:

  • transient insomnia caused by a temporary upset to one¡¯s routine.
  • shor term insomnia brought about through worries, emotional upset or illness
  • chronic insomnia brought on by the number two or drug/alcohol related and usually accompanied by more severe problems

The conventional medical answer to insomnia tends to be ¡®tablets¡¯. These can help but many of these can have side effect and can be addictive.
