 In today's fast-paced life, getting good sleep has become a challenge. Staying up late, mental stress and anxiety affect sleep. Spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar recently shared a video on the Instagram page named 'Gurudev' and told how good sleep can be achieved by adopting some easy measures and how the reasons behind sleeplessness can be understood. He told that in today's hectic and stressful life, many people are struggling with lack of sleep, which affects both physical and mental health. In this video, he told the main reasons for sleeplessness as well as 5 simple ways to get good and deep sleep. Let us know what suggestions Sri Sri Ravi Shankar has given.

Main reasons for sleeplessness

1. Anxiety and stress

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar explains that when there are anxious and stressful thoughts in the mind, the person is unable to calm down. Due to this, there is a delay in sleeping or the sleep gets interrupted repeatedly.

2. Late and heavy meals

If you eat late at night or eat oily and heavy food, the body's metabolism becomes active, which disrupts sleep.

3. Worries about tomorrow and the past

Often people remain entangled in the tension of the future or the events of the past. This mental turmoil stops the process of sleep.

Gurudev's 5 remedies for good sleep

1. Do pranayama and breathing exercises

Deep breathing techniques calm your nervous system. This relaxes the body and helps in falling asleep.

2. Meditation

By meditating daily, the turmoil of the mind is reduced. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar says that meditation gives a break to the mind, due to which sleep becomes deeper naturally.

3. Yoga Nidra

This is a guided resting technique in which the body relaxes and the mind also becomes completely calm. Even if the yoga nidra is for 20 minutes, it gives the same effect as sleeping for hours.

4. Listen to light music

Listening to slow, melodious and soothing music before sleeping relaxes the mind. This creates the necessary mood for sleep.

5. Drink lukewarm milk

Gurudev explains that drinking lukewarm milk before sleeping relaxes the nervous system. The element tryptophan present in it helps in inducing sleep.

Good sleep is not just relaxation, but the basic foundation of a healthy life. Stress, anxiety and irregular routine can spoil your sleep. These remedies suggested by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar will not only improve your sleep but will also bring positive changes in your lifestyle.

Take a few minutes for yourself every day, do pranayama, meditate and try adopting these sleep related habits, you will feel the difference yourself.
