Sleep Disorders and Sleep Deprivation: An Unmet Public Health Problem
Product Description
Clinical practice related to sleep problems and sleep disorders has been expanding rapidly in the last few years, but scientific research is not keeping pace. Sleep apnea, insomnia, and restless legs syndrome are three examples of very common disorders for which we have little biological information. This new book cuts across a variety of medical disciplines such as neurology, pulmonology, pediatrics, internal medicine, psychiatry, psychology, otolaryngology, and nursing, as well as other medical practices with an interest in the management of sleep pathology. This area of research is not limited to very young and old patients – sleep disorders reach across all ages and ethnicities. “Sleep Disorders and Sleep Deprivation” presents a structured analysis that explores the following: improving awareness among the general public and health care professionals; increasing investment in interdisciplinary somnology and sleep medicine research training and mentoring activities; and validating and developing new and existing technologies for diagnosis and treatment. This book will be of interest to those looking to learn more about the enormous public health burden of sleep disorders and sleep deprivation and the strikingly limited capacity of the health care enterprise to identify and treat the majority of individuals suffering from sleep problems.

Yoga does not focus on attacking a specific ailment. Ayurveda focuses on creating health. By removing stress from the mind and body and balancing the basic bodily functions (digestion, metabolism, circulation, elimination, tissue development, nervous system) the root imbalances causing disorders are gradually reversed. Yoga provides a crucial element for health through daily practice that cleanses and rebalances the body, restoring its innate healing ability and remove the debilitating effects of stress. The DVD contains a unique “Real Time” workout program that lets us focus only on the performance of the asanas, while the program leads you through the sequenced asanas with audio assisted timing.
