PERSONAL PROFILE INTERPRETATION
I. REST
This section helps to determine if you have particular worries or perhaps
nutritional/health issues, which may be interfering with your sleep.
IS MY INSOMNIA CAUSED BY STRESS OR A NUTRITIONAL ISSUE?
Good nutrition is absolutely necessary for good brain function! This is very
important in relation to sleep. To determine if you have a sleeping problem
that is caused by inadequate nutrition, first ask yourself these questions:
Is there a reoccurring theme to the thoughts which keep you up at
night? Is your mind filled with thoughts of issues with your mate,
assignments or upcoming exams? Are you worrying about money
issues or perhaps concerned about something you saw in the news,
the state of the environment, health issues, or a personal crisis?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you may have stress
issues. The DAVID can help soothe the mind and quiet troubling thoughts.
However, if your thoughts are just a bunch of random nonsense, then it’s
more likely that your insomnia is due to a nutritional issue. The following
supplements will almost always reduce, and often eliminate insomnia:
1) Vitamin D
3
2) Omega 3s
3) Minerals - particularly magnesium
4) B complex
See Page 22 for more information.
II. LIFE EVENTS & SELF AWARENESS
Depending on the extent of the stressors and/or major changes in your life,
symptoms of anxiety, insomnia, depression or mixed mood could simply be
evidence of adaptive behavior in response to stressful situations. However,
if your troubles persist beyond a reasonable time frame, given the initial
stressor, we recommend that you consult with a psychologist in case these
are symptoms of a larger-scale problem or clinical disorder.
Once you have identified the source of your symptoms, you can begin to
address the problem through AVE.
