Insomnia is difficulty falling, or staying, asleep even when a person has an opportunity to sleep. Often people experience insomnia because they develop a pattern of behaviour that interferes with good sleep habits. Some people are not able to get to sleep, others have problems getting to sleep and staying asleep all night.  Not being able to sleep is a huge problem for a lot of people.

 

Disturbed sleep patterns can cause significant distress in important areas of functioning. As a result, your health may begin to suffer. Symptoms include fatigue, low energy, difficulty concentrating, mood disturbances, and decreased performance in work or at school.

 

Although spells of insomnia normally come and go, it can easily become unmanageable and become a chronic pattern. Learning to relax both physically and mentally is something that you will have to do in order to fall asleep. That’s what hypnotherapy facilitates.
