Q&A with Australian Health Practitioners
What's the cure for insomnia?
Hello,
I'm 36 years old and a Blogger and work from my home (No exposure to sunlight)
I've been suffering from insomnia for the last 3 years.
I've tried almost all remedies like - exercise, hot milk at night, bath in the evening, yoga, yoga-nidra, meditation, staying away from tea-coffee after 5pm, listening to music and so on. Nothing worked.
Only thing seems to be working is - when I go to bed, playing small Q&A games like A-Z Actor names, A-Z cities names or songs, Animal names etc. WITH my wife. But, the problem with this idea is my wife sleeps in 10 minutes whereas I take 30-45 minutes to sleep after we start playing such games.
Though at nights my mind is calm, it's over-active.
I feel grumpy and anxious after sleepless nights and research a lot on Internet about getting good sleep.
What is causing insomnia? Why the above idea of playing games at bed-time works? Any long-term solution using the above technique?
Please advise
