Traditional Chinese Medicine views almost all sleep disorders as stemming from either a deficiency in qi or from a surplus of qi in body organs, mainly the kidneys and heart.
The kidneys, like all the body's organs, store energy. When the kidney's ability to store energy is compromised, sleep disorders can result.

Body's Natural Daily Cycle
Traditional Chinese Medicine also stresses the need to observe the body's natural daily cycle. The "organ time clock" specifies certain times for restoring the energy of certain organs:
11:00 P.M. to 1:00 A.M. for the gallbladder
1:00 A.M. to 3:00 A.M. for the liver
3:00 A.M. to 5:00 A.M. for the lungs
5:00 A.M. to 7:00 A.M. for the large intestine
It helps to go to bed early for optimum benefits. 9-hour sleep time is the most preferable.
