Difficulty falling asleep, frequent night waking, or early awakening can affect energy, mood, and cognition. From an Ayurvedic lens, patterns may involve Vata aggravation, Sādhaka Pitta, or Tarpaka Kapha imbalance. Supportive routines complement your clinician’s care plan.
Insomnia is difficulty initiating sleep, staying asleep, or waking too early—leading to daytime fatigue, sleepiness, irritability, and impaired concentration. Gentle routines and trigger management often help, alongside medical guidance where appropriate.
Common contributors include irregular schedules, late caffeine, heavy screen exposure at night, stress, worries, pain, certain medicines, and environmental factors (noise, light, temperature). From an Ayurvedic lens, aggravated Vata (irregularity/dryness) is frequently implicated.
In Ayurveda, insomnia is described as Anidra. Depending on the person, combinations of doṣas may be involved:
Supportive care aims to balance doṣas with routines, diet, and qualified guidance; it does not replace clinical care.
If insomnia persists, worsens, or impacts safety (e.g., drowsy driving), seek medical evaluation.
