Sahaja Meditation Helps Prevent Insomnia

Chronic insomnia is a state of hyperarousal, and meditation can be a simple but effective behavioral intervention in treating it. A 2009 study conducted by Ramadevi Gourineni, MD, director of the insomnia program at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Evanston, Illinois, showed that meditation during the daytime can help prevent insomnia at night. Patients who meditated saw improvements in depression, as well as all sleep parameters: sleep latency, total sleep time, total wake time, wake after sleep onset, sleep efficiency, sleep quality. Another 1999 study conducted by several Australian universities showed that melatonin levels significantly increase in the brain following meditation. Melatonin is an antioxidant hormone that's naturally secreted by the pineal gland in the brain, especially at night. Melatonin regulates sleep patterns and helps you get a good night’s sleep.
Frequently called "the hormone of darkness," melatonin regulates our circadian rhythm (sleeping and waking) patterns: It tells the body when it's time to sleep. The body's natural levels are high during the evening and low during the day. Melatonin's antioxidant properties help fight the damage wreaked on us by free radicals; for example, melatonin can help stop wear-and-tear damage to DNA.
Sahaja Meditation helps us sleep better by balancing the inner energy flow in the left and right sympathetic nervous systems. Excessive thinking and overactivity of the brain can deplete the energy flow in the right sympathetic nervous system and can cause insomnia. The state of thoughtless awareness can help reestablish that balance of inner energy, thereby reducing mental activity, and in the process, reducing insomnia.
In particular, a very effective technique of Sahaja Meditation that involves foot soaking combined with meditation before going to bed is a wonderful remedy for insomnia.
