Can’t Sleep? Learn a New Way to Put Your Brain to Rest

If you think not sleeping well is just one of those discomforts you have to put up with as a side effect of aging, you’ll be surprised to hear that new research conducted by the Center for Sleep and Circadian Neurobiology at the University of Pennsylvania turns this conventional wisdom on its head.

The study, involving over 150,000 people and published in the journal Sleep, was designed to show that the quality of sleep declines in old age, explained Dr Michael Grander. But the shock results reveal that aging isn’t the primary cause of poor sleep. So much so that one British sleep researcher commented it was a “myth” that aging is the root of sleep deprivation.

The study has researchers convinced that complaints about poor sleep lessen as people move beyond the middle years, with the lowest number of complaints among the over-70s – likely because they have adjusted to a more relaxed lifestyle by this time in life.

So why do people in their middle years – especially their 40s, when they ought to be performing at their peak in all areas of life – suffer the most severe sleep deprivation, whereas many even in their 80s report sleeping well?

At Brain State Technologies®, we’ve known for a long time that it isn’t age that causes people to sleep poorly.

Sleep deprivation is at its peak in the 40s because by then people’s brain patterns are often in a state of severe disarray as a result of the buildup of trauma and stress as a result of the pressures of our complex modern world. The overtaxed brain becomes “stuck” in a mode designed for coping with challenging situations, unable to return to its normal state.

The common approach to treating sleep maladies is chemical, with $150 billion spent by United States companies to address sleep-related issues. Use of sedatives has soared as stressed-out Americans seek to feel more relaxed. The problem is that the underlying sleep architecture remains abnormal because of the continuing imbalance in the individual’s brainwaves. Chemicals such as sleep aids simply mask what’s really going on inside us.

At Brain State, we’ve demonstrated that the brain drives body chemistry. When brainwave patterns are balanced left-to-right and front-to-back, with low and high frequencies in optimal proportion to one another throughout the brain, clients find themselves sleeping well often for the first time in years.

Having assessed the brainwave patterns of over 50,000 clients worldwide, we know that when the brain is agitated, as measured by EEG, the individual’s sleep tends to suffer. By addressing these imbalances with our advanced noninvasive technology, we’ve shown that not sleeping well isn’t merely a symptom of physical and emotional health problems, but the source of many of these problems.

At any age, sleep can be improved by balancing and harmonizing the brain using Brainwave Optimization™. But especially if you are in your career and family years, you want to function at your best. Changing your sleep patterns with Brainwave Optimization® can be life-changing – like being released from shackles.
