Sleep is a necessity. Without sleep we will not function. But sometimes we get sleep, but the quality of sleep is poor. And this can have multiple reasons.
A new sleep environment.
Noise outside.
The weather and temperature of the room.
Haven eaten too much and too late.
Being poorly.
Being stressed, anxious or just worrying too much.
Not being able to stop thinking.
What happens to our body when we don't get enough sleep or constantly wake up or just don't sleep well and you cannot describe how and why, is quite broad. What I would like to focus on is how it will affects your body, your mind, your wellbeing and how you will be able to respond and cope with situations.
When we don't sleep well our tolerance to stress reduces. we are less resilient. As a side effect: we stress more. And stress can impact our sleep quality. And thus we can enter a vicious cycle of bad sleep affecting how we cope with stress, stress affecting how we sleep.
From experience, my own as well as feedback from clients, neuromuscular relaxation sessions such as Vitametik, allow you to enjoy a deeper, more relaxed sleep. With ongoing sessions, feedback is that sleep improves extending the night after a session.
But why can neuromuscular relaxation like Vitametik positively impact your sleep? When we relax our autonomic nervous system, your vagus nerve, responsible for relaxation, resting and digestion gets activated. Although activation makes an impression that this would counter act sleep, but an active vagus nerve is need to enter rest and digest and exit fight-or-flight and stress. What Vitametik also targets is chronic muscle tensions and with letting go of those tensions, it feels like settling down like a feather.
When we let reduce chronic muscle tension, we can also reduce discomfort such as tension headaches, tension pain in neck, shoulder and back, joint pain, hip discomfort, functional leg length differences and much more. https://www.relaxbeyond.co.uk/services-4
