240: Resiliency Radio with Dr. Jill: The 5 Causes of Insomnia: How to Sleep Well Naturally Through Root Cause Healing

🌼 Dr. Damiana Corca and Dr. Jill dive deep into understanding insomnia and how to achieve a restful sleep naturally. We are honored to welcome the esteemed sleep expert, Dr. Damiana Corca, who specializes in root cause healing for sleep disorders. In this comprehensive discussion, Dr. Damiana Corca explains the five distinct causes of insomnia: the Anxious Type, Overthinking Type, Overtaxed Type, Depleted Type, and Overburdened Type. Each type of insomnia is explored in detail, offering valuable insights into identifying your specific sleep challenges and providing actionable tips for overcoming them. Key Points:  In The Deep Blue Sleep, Dr. Damiana Corca identifies five distinct types of insomnia, each with unique characteristics and underlying causes: ✅ 1. Anxious Type: Individuals experience difficulty falling asleep due to heightened anxiety and racing thoughts. This is often associated with elevated evening cortisol levels, making relaxation challenging.  ✅ 2. Overthinking Type: Characterized by waking between 1 and 3 a.m., individuals find it hard to return to sleep due to persistent rumination. Common contributors include digestive issues and hormonal imbalances, particularly during perimenopause and menopause.  ✅ 3. Overtaxed Type:  Marked by early morning awakenings around 3 or 4 a.m., individuals feel unable to resume sleep as they begin contemplating the upcoming day's tasks. This pattern is often linked to overwhelming responsibilities and an overactive stress response.  ✅ 4. Depleted Type: Typically observed in older adults, this type involves waking after only four or five hours of sleep, regardless of bedtime. It is associated with diminished levels of hormones and neurotransmitters, leading to a sense of being "done" with sleep prematurely.  ✅ 5. Overburdened Type: Individuals experience sleep disturbances due to an overload of responsibilities or emotional burdens. This can lead to fragmented sleep patterns and a sense of being overwhelmed, impacting overall sleep quality.  Understanding these insomnia types enables a more personalized approach to addressing sleep disturbances by targeting the specific underlying causes.  👨‍⚕️ Dr. Damiana Corca Dr. Damiana Corca is a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese medicine as well as a certified functional medicine practitioner specializing in sleep disorders. The unique replenishing sleep framework shared in her book The Deep Blue Sleep is the culmination of thousands of sleep healing sessions from more than a decade in clinical practice.
