Generally speaking, we’re either asleep or awake. This is called the sleep-wake cycle and it is controlled by our body’s biological clock, or circadian rhythms. These cycles are highly influenced by day-night/light-dark changes. Stressful anxiety-producing events, hormonal fluctuations and/or environmental disturbances also affect how we sleep.

Once the sleep cycle is disrupted, it can be difficult to get back to your natural sleep cycle. If your sleepless nights are impacting your days, talk to your doctor soon because short-term, or transient insomnia may turn into chronic insomnia if ignored. There are many options that may improve your sleep. So check out this web site, and talk to your doctor to find a sleep plan that works for you.
