Drifting Back to Sleep

Struggling to fall asleep can be so frustrating. Thoughts are whirring, you feel restless. The temptation is to start watching TV or browsing on your phone. Why not open the curtains and look up at the night sky instead?

Immersing yourself in darkness will help to reset your circadian rhythm and release natural melatonin which will help you sleep. This practice also includes a breath-awareness meditation. When we give our busy mind something rhythmic, soothing and embodied to focus on, you might be surprised how quickly you drift back off to sleep.
