What is Clinophobia?
Clinophobia- Fear of going to bed.
A person needs to be truly relaxed for the process to begin and for the body to feel the full benefits. Two branches of the autonomic nervous system are responsible for most of the changes that take place.
What is known as the sympathetic branch slows down, allowing the parasympathetic branch to assume a greater role, calming the body and mind and decreasing metabolism until it reaches a hypometabolic state as opposed to the hypermetabolic state experienced during the fight or flight process.
