How to sleep throughout the night - #20374
Mavis adu
I usually wake up by 1:30am after going to bed at 10pm. I mostly find it difficult to sleep again. It started about two weeks ago. I don't feel tired or sleepy during the day time. Am a female at 42 years with three children and widow whose husband passed away on 18th April, 2022. I am a Ghanaian living in Ghana. Thank you

The challenge of waking up in the middle of the night is something many face, yet it's reassuring to know that Ayurveda offers methods to help improve your sleep patterns. It's noticeable that you're currently facing a disturbed sleep cycle which might be influenced by recent changes or stress factors in your life.
Beginning with your dosha, it's often seen that Vata imbalance can lead to irregular sleeping patterns, given its air and space qualities, causing restlessness. To pacify it, anchoring your evening routine is key. Engage in soothing activities before bedtime—reading a light book or taking a warm bath can gradually calm the mind. You might try drinking warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom which helps in grounding and relaxing Vata dosha, potentially aiding in better sleep.
On the diet front, consuming nourishing, warm meals for dinner, such as a simple moong dal soup or cooked vegetables with ghee, is advantageous. Avoid cold, raw foods or stimulants like caffeine or nicotine in the evening as they can exacerbate Vata.
Additionally, implementing a daily self-massage with warm sesame oil, known as Abhyanga, can have a profoundly calming effect—reducing anxiety and naturally inducing a state of relaxation.
Creating a consistent sleep schedule can also regulate your body's internal clock. If you retire at 10pm, ensure the environment is conducive to sleep—dim lights, silence, and a comfortable setting. Techniques like Pranayama or gentle breathing exercises before sleep can further assist in reducing mental clutter.
While it seems you're able to function well during the day, it's important to keep tracking these patterns. Should the disruption become more prevalent or impacting your wellbeing, do consult a local Ayurvedic practitioner or healthcare professional to explore personalized solutions. This advice, although practical and attainable, is best complemented with an expert's guidance, especially considering life’s recent emotional changes.
