There are many contributing factors to insomnia from our non-stop lifestyles, constant bombardment of media, life-stress, work-stress, nutritional-stress, and chronic illness. Not only that but constant sleep deprivation has been shown to cause many health problems from heart disease, stroke to breast cancer.
The research was done on a group of 20 study participants at the Harvard Medical School and involved yoga breathing, meditation and mantra. After eight weeks researchers found that participants had significantly improved sleep efficiency, total sleep time, sleep onset latency, and wake time after sleep onset at the end of treatment compared with before treatment. Yoga is an effective treatment because it addresses insomnia's physical and psychological aspects.
