Abstract
Sleep is a naturally recurring state of mind and body. Insomnia disorder is defined as a subjective perception or complaint of inadequate or poor quality sleep due to a number of factors such as difficulty falling asleep, waking up frequently during the night with difficulty returning to sleep, waking up too early in the morning or unrefreshing sleep. Insomnia is not defined by the numbers of hours of sleep a person gets. Insomnia is widely associated with medical and psychiatric conditions as well as with impaired quality of life and emotional functioning. Now a day many people are dependent on sleeping pills and have become habitual to them. There are 3 support pillars of life Aahar, Nidra, Brahmcharya. Nidra provides nutrition to living body. Anidra has been described in detail by Acharyas in various contexts like Vata nanatmaja Vikara,Vataja Jwara etc. Panchkarma therapies like Shirodhara, Shirobasti, Shiroabhyang, Shiropicchu, Padaabhyang is very useful in treatment of Anidra. After reviewing the recent findings from literature we aim to discuss causes, consequences and management of insomnia with the prespective of Ayurveda.
