How to Cure Insomnia without Drugs

The cure for insomnia and sleeping problems generally starts in understanding the cause of the issue and not in trying to resolve the symptoms.

Like all stress related issues, insomnia is a result of stress within a person and so only by accepting and understanding this can anyone hope to resolve their sleeping problems. Sleeping when tired, although a natural habit can be unlearnt and so as well as seeking the cause rather than the cure we must accept that sleeping when tired can be un-learnt.

Anyone who has sat up too late watching the TV for too many nights will agree that after while this forms into a habit that takes conscious choice to break. Curing insomnia and resolving your sleeping problems is no different to breaking any habit. Of course habits are personal too and so one person's reason for insomnia will be slightly or vastly different to another's but the ability to resolve the issue is the same no matter what the cause.

Learning to Sleep

To cure your sleeping problem without any drugs you must do the following:
1. Understand that the problem is a symptom.
2. Accept that stress, lifestyle or behaviour are the cause.
3. Take some time to change your stress levels, lifestyle or behaviour.
4. Use sleeping techniques that allow you to re-learn how to sleep at will.

This of course may sound simplistic but the simple and unique nature of the solution is why science has not come up with an answer that cures all insomnia or any sleeping problem.

The key understanding about sleeping problems and insomnia of any kind is that the causes are unique to the individual and cannot be found in the chemicals or enzymes of the body. To cure insomnia forever without ever taking a single drug the person themselves must change something in their life and through understanding the correct approach to take anyone can cure themselves of this 'illness'.
