Can Yeonran, who is afraid of the night due to chronic insomnia, regain healthy sleep? Yeonran (60 years old) first started suffering from insomnia 7 years ago. She woke up several times a night, couldn’t even sigh, or had shallow sleep every day. She suffered from fatigue due to not being able to sleep well, and became so lethargic that she had difficulty going out. She visited a hospital for treatment and took sleeping pills and antidepressants, but they didn’t have much effect. She tried to sleep by hiking twice a day and overworking her body, but excessive exercise only made her more tired. Despite these efforts, her insomnia did not improve at all, and depression dominated her daily life. Can Yeonran overcome her painful insomnia and achieve sweet sleep through the lifestyle correction and solutions of <Precious Body>? A comprehensive solution to overcome sleep disorders through collaboration between otolaryngology and psychiatry! Professor Kim Hee-jin of the Department of Psychiatry (Chung-Ang University Gwangmyeong Hospital) said that correcting bad habits that interfere with sleep can prevent and improve sleep disorders.

Professor Jeong Yeon-soo of the Department of Otorhinolaryngology (Chung-Ang University Gwangmyeong Hospital) said that losing weight and abstaining from alcohol are helpful in preventing sleep apnea. <Your Precious Body> will reveal the rules of deep sleep such as 'upper airway muscle strengthening exercise' and 'mind-body relaxation training' to prevent sleep apnea.
