A mentally weak person who works less and thinks more suffers from sleeplessness. This is a very painful problem and prolonged condition could even lead to lunacy. Those who work hard should sleep at least for seven to eight hours.
Our body is made up of small cells. They break up while doing work; walking, mental work and the body and mind get tired. This tiredness can be overcome with good sleep. Sleep is an important activity for the body. It is the food for the body and a tonic for the mind. It helps in the building up of new cells and throwing out the body disorders. Disorders or diseases occur when the body is not maintained properly. Lack of sleep makes the body tired, irritable and stressed.
Our body performs various actions during sleep. The person changes sides in sleep but the blood circulation continues. The heartbeat reduces but the digestion process is in its usual state. Liver and kidneys function properly. The body temperature also reduces by one degree during sleep.
Causes for sleeplessness There are three main reasons for this problem – increased blood supply in the brain, anxiety and combination of these two leading to worry.
Natural remedies * The patient of insomnia wakes up late in the morning. To avoid this wake one hour before sunrise. Finish the morning chores and do Jalneti followed by morning walks.
* Dip the feet in hot water for 20 minutes before going to bed. Take bath with cold water and scrub the body nicely while taking bath.
* Sleep in well-ventilated and airy room. Feel the respiration for ten minutes after lying on the bed. This will make the mind calm and give sound sleep.
* Oil massage and sunbath during winters is very beneficial. Massage should include jerks, patting, friction, vibration etc.
* A hot-cold fomentation on the back is very relieving. In the end, keep a cold bandage on the spine for 15 minutes.
* Hot-cold fomentation on stomach towards the liver is recommended. Place a cold bandage on the stomach at least thrice a week.

Yogic cure Practice Yog nidra for 30 minutes daily – it overcomes nervous weakness, fatigue, mental stress, negative thoughts, high blood pressure etc. It gives complete rest, strength, enthusiasm and happiness to the body, mind, brain and soul.
In the beginning the practitioner should do the following yogasanas to get complete benefit. Practicing Katichakrasana makes the body light and refresh. It improves the digestion process, makes the spine flexible.


Vajrasana is the best asana for the patient of insomnia. It is a meditative posture and overcomes playfulness of the mind, digestive problems, gastric trouble, indigestion and insomnia.
Bhujangasana strengthens the nervous system; it has a positive impact on the stomach, keeps the spine flexible and helps in enjoying sound sleep.
Shalabhasana is also very beneficial for the patient of insomnia. It cures the diseases of spine, overcomes backache and sciatica pain, and strengthens nervous system and sleeplessness.
Makarasana and Pavanmuktasana should also be practiced regularly. Hastapodottanasana is also beneficial. Include Paschimottasana, Ushtrasana, Halasana, Sarvangasana, and Ardhamatysendrasana after one or two months. Do Shavasana for five to ten minutes in the end for relaxation.
Practice Kapalbhati and Nadi shodhan in the end. Brahmari pranayam is also beneficial in this case.
The above yogic processes have a magical and positive affect on the body, which overcomes insomnia.
