There are many reasons why people aren’t getting enough sleep which range from intentional (trying to squeeze the most out of every day) to unintentional due to family obligations or work demands. With the rise of smartphones, sleep deprivation has only increased as people constantly have a source of entertainment and information at their fingertips. Add onto that the effect that blue light from the phones has on the natural circadian rhythm and you have a recipe for disaster. While it’s been shown that meditation sounds and music can definitely help you get to sleep, there can be underlying health reasons for why you’re not getting a good night’s sleep such as sleep apnea or other health issues. If you’re experiencing persistent insomnia, your best course of action is to speak to your doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment options.
