As an experienced veteran TCM practitioner, I often encounter patients who are distressed by insomnia. Insomnia not only affects physical health, but also daily life and work. So, how to solve the problem of insomnia?
Below I will introduce to you from six aspects.
1. Maintain a good sleeping environment.
A good sleep environment is the first step in solving insomnia. Keeping the room quiet, dark, and cool can effectively promote sleep. In addition, using a comfortable mattress and pillow to keep your room clean and hygienic can also help improve the quality of sleep.
2. Regular work and rest time.
A regular schedule is the key to solving insomnia. Maintaining a regular sleep schedule each day helps adjust your body's biological clock and allow your body to adjust to a regular sleep pattern. At the same time, avoiding staying up late and being overly tired is also an important measure to prevent insomnia.
3. Relax.
Relaxation is an important way to solve insomnia.
Relaxing activities such as deep breathing, yoga, meditation, etc., before going to bed can help relieve tension and stress, allowing the body and brain to gradually fall asleep. Also, avoid stimulating activities such as watching scary movies, playing games, etc., before going to bed.
Fourth, pay attention to your diet.
Diet is also an important factor in solving insomnia. Properly control the intake of dinner and avoid eating irritating foods such as coffee, tea, chili, etc. In addition, appropriately supplement some foods that help you sleep, such as milk, bananas, almonds, etc.
5. Drugs**.
If the insomnia problem is severe, it can be done with some Chinese or Western medicine under the advice of a doctor**. However, medications** are not a long-term solution and need to be used under the guidance of a doctor to avoid problems such as drug dependence.
6. Acupuncture**.
Acupuncture** is an effective method of insomnia in Chinese medicine**. Through acupuncture, the body's acupuncture points are stimulated, the body's qi and blood circulation are regulated, and the body's tension and discomfort are relieved, so as to achieve the effect of insomnia. If you want to try acupuncture**, it is recommended to go to a regular TCM clinic or hospital**.
The above are six ways to solve the problem of insomnia.
