Insomnia (page 94)
According to the Canadian Sleep Society (2009), 30-40 percent of adults are affected by insomnia in any given year, and 10 percent have insomnia problems so severe that the problems interfere with daily functioning. Insomnia refers to chronic difficulty in falling asleep, staying asleep or maintaining restorative sleep. In many cases, trying to get to sleep compounds a person's sleep problems by creating autonomic activity and muscle tension. You can only set the stage for sleep by relaxing when you are tired. Some treatment involves stimulus control methods to improve sleep quality. By controlling your environment and creating a "sleep routine," you may be able to achieve better sleep. For example, it is not a good idea to drink caffeine or eat before bed, and it is a good idea not to drink, snack, or watch television in bed.
