Hours after getting into bed, bloodshot eyes still staring at the ceiling. How Meditation Activates the "Sleep Gateway" of the Brain Sleep Quality Versus Sleep Quantity If you want to rebalance your biology for night after night of super deep, natural sleep, while waking up feeling fresh and rejuvenated each and every morning - look no further than meditation. ![]() Perhaps this is why meditation practitioners are known for their "extraordinary" immunity to sleep problem(s)?

While melatonin is readily available over the counter, boosting this key chemical from within, rather than through supplementation, is a far better long term solution for solving sleep disorders. And critically important for insomnia sufferers, this chemical is a "must-have" for deep, restful sleep. ![]() With excessive light as the " #1 enemy" of melatonin, the fact that we're shutting down our body's production of this critical sleep molecule may well be the most important casualty of this epidemic.Ī so-called chemical " superhero," melatonin boosts mood, slows cancer, strengthens immunity, increases longevity, all while helping to prevent over 100 different diseases. This unbalancing act, compounded by our newfound love of morning to night screen-time, is taking a heavy biological toll on us all - especially our natural sleep patterns. In recent decades, however, as modern humans have collectively worked toward becoming a 24 hour-a-day, hyper-productive society, our nights have become ever shorter and shorter.
