Parasomnia: Parasomniac sufferers have different symptoms. One of the most common forms of parasomnia is sleepwalking. People suffering from Parasomnia start walking, whilst still asleep. They may open their eyes, make themselves a sandwich, eat it and go back to bed. However, they are still asleep.
Another common type of parasomina is sleep terror also known as night terror in which the patient wakes up in a panic state. It is usually associated with a loud scream.

Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF therapy) and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS/TMS) research suggests PEMF can induce sleep and relaxation in insomnia and other sleep disorders. There have been just a few studies suggesting that low frequency pulsed magnetic therapy or repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has reduced insomnia and other sleeping disorders. However, in '06-'07 two on-point studies proved that these signals would in fact increase Delta wave sleep.

hey,

insomnia(sleeplessness ) stress together can ruin ones life life in more than one ways and I am one big example of that. but all said and done what has helped me most is yoga. I have been practicing this for some time now and and have been considerably benefited from that.


came across an article on timeswellness.com. excerpts from the article are

Steps to perform Synchronized Breathing

* Sit in a comfortable position with your back upright.
* Inhale rapidly through your nose as you tilt your head back while simultaneously inflating your abdomen.
* Immediately exhale quickly through your mouth as you bow your head down while compressing your abdomen.
* Repeat 10 to 15 times.
* Then relax with your head vertical and concentrate on the top of your head, the mid-brow area and the centre of your chest simultaneously while breathing slowly for 30 seconds.
* Repeat the entire process three times.

The spiritual ‘power centre’ at the top of your head regulates the pineal gland and melatonin, the hormone that regulates sleep cycles.

When to practice this method

* You can practice this daily before going to bed
* Before returning home from work so you don’t bring stress to your family
* Before important meetings
* Whenever you feel stressed


hope you benefit from this
