The Role Of The Brain
Sleep is not a voluntary act and we are at the mercy of our brain which has to slow down its electrical activity in order to take us from one phase to another until the next morning.
It is during the slow, deep deep sleep that we rest physically. During the paradoxical or REM phase of sleep we recuperate mentally. The phases only need to be shortened in length or intensity for the sleep to be less regenerative. We cannot issue our brains with orders but we can look after the brain by nourishing it, removing negative or draining thought, relieving unnecessary tension and administering natural remedies that don't disturb its activity.
You can take these methods on board and make them part of your daily life in order to avoid disturbed sleep or help cure it. It is never too late for action.
