Sleep Apnea and Trapped Emotions

Sleep apnea is a condition when the breathing pattern stops for approximately 10-20 seconds during sleep,   There are two types of sleep apnea.  Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which  is caused by the relaxation and collapsing of the soft tissue in the back of the throat which blocks the air flow into the lungs.  Central sleep apnea (CSA), which is caused by the brain sending irregular messages to the muscles that control breathing.

Researchers have found that sleep apnea is related to ‘Emotional Trauma’ such as near death experiences.  One of the most common experiences is near drowning.  Studies have indicated that people with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are highly susceptible to sleep apnea or shallow breathing.  The connection between sleep disorders and PTSD is mainly attributed to nightmares or flashbacks during the REM sleep.

Signs and symptoms of sleep apnea:
