There are three types of Insomnia

Acute: This condition lasts up to a month and occurs due to temporary situational stress like a new job, deadlines and examinations. Once the situation is resolved, sleep goes back to normal.

Transient insomnia: This lasts for a week or so and could accompany another disorder, like, a change in the sleep environment, stress or depression. This one falls in the short-term condition category and can be a precursor to chronic insomnia.

Chronic Insomnia: This one goes on for a long time, and needs medical attention to resolve. The patient accepts it as a fixed condition but lifestyle changes and intervention by experts can help settle this.

Symptoms include difficulty in falling asleep, a sense of wakefulness in the middle of the night, waking up too early, feeling low on energy in the morning after sleep, restlessness and tiredness in the day, day napping in the daytime, mood swings, depression, anxiety, lack of focus and in severe cases can even lead to chronic anxiety and an overall emotional imbalance.

Among these is Sleep Apnea, a serious sleep disorder in which the breathing repeatedly stops and starts through the night.

Quality check for your sleep

• Regular exercise (of your choice),
• Proper night meals with a gap of two hours or more before you sleep,
• Digital detox, two to three hours before bedtime, and then follow this, day in day out
• Add healthy nutritious meals to your diet,
• Add relaxation techniques like yoga or meditation to your daily practice
• Cut down on coffee, alcohol and smoking and stay hydrated,
• Ask yourself what made you happy in the day? This practice helps us stay grateful for the day, and invite positivity in our sleep hours
