Insomnia

247291396Lack of sleep depletes your energy.

You lay awake in bed, trying to close your eyes and hoping sleep will come. It’s a struggle as you toss and turn in bed. Before you know it, it’s two hours until you wake up and face the day ahead.

Everyone in the home is asleep, and you are envious. You wonder, “Why not me?”

Some days you fall asleep but cannot stay asleep, waking up in the middle of the night tossing and turning and feeling completely restless.

Waking up in the morning, you find it difficult to concentrate. You don’t feel well-rested, are slow in your daily activities, and are tired and sleepy throughout the day. Even a cup of coffee has stopped doing it for you.

Feel energized again!

Imagine being able to fall asleep and stay asleep – waking up in the morning with the energy to start your day.

Wouldn’t it be nice to wake up to the first sound of the alarm, delighted to start your day? Your body isn’t tired, and you can smile in the morning. You look forward to a bright day.

Your body is asleep, but your eyes won’t close.

Let’s get you sleeping well again. My work with you will be mindfulness practice with insomnia. Mindfulness involves focusing on the now.

There is power in accepting things we can’t change, and accepting the experience of poor sleep can lead to better sleep. I know it sounds absurd. What happens is that you’ll begin to feel less anxious.

We will work on assignments and things you can do independently to help you sleep better. I will look at your current sleep pattern and help you improve your sleep.

Let’s talk now.
