There is an increasing recognition and knowledge about the value of sleep in both physiology, psychology, and human performance. There is also an increasing burden and prevalence of sleep disturbance and chronic insomnia, which are believed to be strongly influenced by stress and arousal.

• The prevalence and underlying characteristics of insomnia
• The well-known behavioral treatments for insomnia
• The research demonstrating the efficacy of yoga for sleep quality and sleep disorders.
