We can all suffer from lack of sleep from time to time, without any lasting effects but ....
Persistent insomnia has serious repercussions on our health and wellbeing,
and has become such a common problem here in the UK that it affects about one in three people.
There are two types of insomnia, transient (short term) and chronic (long term):
. Transient - lasts a few nights or weeks and can be connected to stress related incidents or
events such as moving house, bereavement or losing a job.
. Chronic -can last months or even years and may be connected to conditions such as depression, anxiety or pain.
The effects of insomnia on health can vary from low mood swings and irritability to deep depression and difficulty coping with day to day tasks.
Hypnotherapy is an excellent way to help overcome insomnia by reprogramming the mind using relaxation techniques
and tapping into the subconscious to discover the root cause, removing any possible triggers and offering positive suggestions for change and deep relaxation.
