When Sleep Becomes the Enemy We Can't Defeat

Thirty percent of us lie awake tonight, staring at ceilings, counting breaths instead of sheep, watching darkness slowly fade to dawn. We've tried everything-prescription pills that leave us groggy, melatonin gummies that don't work, meditation apps that somehow make us more anxious. Meanwhile, sleep deprivation quietly erodes our health, relationships, and sanity. But what if the solution isn't pharmaceutical or technological, but ancient? What if the answer lies in practices developed thousands of years before sleep labs and EEG machines? Yoga for better sleep isn't about contorting into pretzel shapes before bed-it's about understanding the intricate dance between body, breath, mind, and rest. This approach bridges cutting-edge neuroscience with timeless wisdom, offering hope for the millions who've forgotten what genuine rest feels like.
