STRESS, WORRIES, AND ANXIETIES

STRESS, WORRIES AND ANXIETIES
Stress, worries and anxieties are undoubtedly major causes of sleeplessness.
So how does one overcome them in order to get a good nights sleep.
Its probably not very practical to get up in the middle of the night and go and see your doctor or psychologist. So what is one to do?.
Well, here is one solution which is very effective if its done correctly. Its also very simple, and that which is simple is usually the most successful.

Its best to do this before you go to bed.
Find a room or space where you will not be disturbed.

Think of a problem or situation which is uppermost in your mind. (maybe your girlfriend/boyfriend has left you. You are about to be sacked by your boss etc)
Write that problem down on a sheet of paper, including the details of who, where, when and what.
That action alone seperates you to a degree from the problem.
Its out there in front of you on paper. Its less passionate now.

Once you are happy you have written it all down, read it back to yourself.
Now write down the possibilities to remedy the situation.
For example, your boss is about to fire you.
1. Tell him to shove his job. 2. Apologise. 3. Ask for a transfer to a different department. 4. Ask him to review the situation 5. Start looking for another job in the morning.
You will start to feel good when you have the answer and can then go back to bed.

If you are uncertain as to which solution, list the advantages and disadvantages of each one you are not sure of.
Returning to the scenario with the boss, if you tell him to 'shove his job.........' then you definitely are fired, but you will feel good, (for a short while)
Apologise. You may not be fired,you still have your job but you will feel bad, (for a short while.)
Sleep well.

Meditation for Insomnia and Better Sleep


Better sleep, less insomnia.Did you know that 1 in 3 people suffer from sleep problems? If you or anyone you love suffer from insomnia then we have great news for you. What if there was a highly effective, all natural solution for a great night of sleep, every night?

Meditation is the very best way to alleviate insomnia for anyone who wants a more natural approach to solving sleep disorder problems, helping you to sleep deeply every night, while waking up feeling rejuvenated, refreshed, and recharged.

How does meditation help me sleep better?

The are a great number of reasons meditation helps you sleep, here are 3:

1. Meditation increases your sleep brainwaves.

Insomniacs tend to have an excess of beta brainwaves, best known as the dominant mental state when we are anxious and/or depressed.

Studies show that experienced meditators – those who are able to achieve the deepest meditative states – have far fewer bad beta brainwaves, andmuch higher levels of the far more beneficial alpha, theta, and deltabrainwave patterns.

If you want to sleep like a log, then meditation can be exactly the remedy you have been looking for!

(Good thing for you, EquiSync® brainwave programs focus exclusively on these super beneficial brainwaves.)

2. By bringing awareness to the present, meditation buries the stresses of the today and the worries of tomorrow.

Meditation brings your mind to rest, so that you are not up thinking about the stresses of the day or what life will be like tomorrow.

By bringing your awareness to the present, meditation does a miraculous thing: it makes you realize that you are now in bed, the day is over, and the new day has not yet started.

This awareness of now, and the awareness of your body and how your thoughts are affecting you, is often the only way to calm your mind and sleep.

3. Meditation increases super beneficial sleep chemicals.

Meditation has been scientifically proven to boost, in the most natural of ways, many of your body’s neurochemicals. One of these, melatonin, is a hormone manufactured in the brain, whose levels peak just before bedtime. Melatonin’s main function is to create restful sleep.

Stress, however, significantly lowers melatonin levels, inhibiting your body’s natural sleep cycle. People who meditate are able to maintain healthy levels of melatonin by dramatically reducing stress and restoring their natural brain chemical balance.

As a result, they sleep more soundly, have much less insomnia, and wake up feeling rejuvenated each day. (Boosting your melatonin naturally with meditation, rather than taking a supplement, is a far better long term solution for nightly deep sleep).

What is the secret to accessing the limitless benefits of meditation?
