What do you do when you are struggling to fall asleep?

It's late at night and you are stuck in a deep forest full of bushes, thorny plants and trees, and you need to sleep. What would you do if this area of the forest is full of dense thorny plants and bushes? Would you sleep here? Can you sleep here even if you try? Your each movement will bruise your body. Is it possible to levitate and get out of the forest? No. Unless you are a well earned Yogi. So what's possible? To find a safer place, with low thorns and low density of bushes and sleep there to regain the energy to find your way out tomorrow.

1.Complete silence

The more you run from these thoughts, they magnify themselves. You are stuck in a vicious loop of thoughts.

A state of thoughtlessness. Even if it appears fascinating, it isn't practical for a normal, unaware human being stuck in life, and the sense of I.

Talk to yourself to calm yourself down. “I am alone, I am on my own, I am my support, I am my elder brother, I have to take my care, I need nobody and nothing to live, I must respect myself, I may be a loser for the world but I don't care.”

Because of hyperactivity in the mind, the mind refuses to give up on active thoughts and is constantly sending signals of activity to the body.

If there will be a tomorrow, there will be a tomorrow again after that, doesn't matter how tough it is. The flow of life won't stop.

Appreciating yourself for all the deeds and efforts of today. You deserve sleep, you have earned this phase of rest. You did great in life; one can never be perfect, and expecting perfection is stupid.

7.Deep slow breathing.

2.Play light music or bhajans.

Even if your body is tired after a long trek on the hills, and every bit of it is aching and asking for rest, you still can't sleep because your mind is detached from your body and doesn't think so.

6.Slow down, no fast or swift movements.

Meditate on the thought of temporariness. Nothing is permanent; the universe and my life are constantly changing; no expectations work here. Life is as random as a dice roll or Flipkart of a coin. Nothing that crosses my path stays or will stay forever. I will be there for me till this body takes its last breath.

3.Darkness.

What do you CPAP users do to keep your mouth closed during sleep using a nasal pillow?

If you really can’t sleep, sit in the meditative posture with your legs folded. Straighten your back, look in the front, shut your eyes, smile, slow down, take slow and deep breaths and focus on the centre of your forehead, the third eye. Nothing matters anymore.

10.Even if you can't fall asleep, your task is to lie down peacefully, letting your body.

8.No smartphone near you.

Let's understand further-

Mind and body are two parallel sides of the track that run your life; even if one side is broken or tired, the other may refuse to cooperate.

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?

The thoughts must be powerful to replace the existing thoughts.

Fascinating dreams and situations. Like visiting your favourite place, creating a story where you are the hero, the saviour. Avoid lust stories at it will force you to masturbate.

5.Smile.

4.Lay your body facing the roof.

Feel in the company of your beloved God, dedicate your every bit to them, show immense faith and love in them, and show trust in their love for you and your powers. They can turn your life upside down in the blink of an eye. Only they are yours in this world full of strangers.

Make a plan or plan relevant decisions for tomorrow to handle life. “I will do this, face that, get over that tomorrow and then go to sleep. I am capable enough to handle it. I will show that I am capable enough to handle this responsibility handed to me by life.” And feel free, that's it, that's the best you can do, and nothing has to be done.

The best we can do is to change our thoughts and steer our minds to a more comfortable space.

9.No electronics charging near you.

What was your biggest culture shock going to Europe?

Thoughts of you fighting out the toughest of circumstances and steering through life like a real hero.

Comfortable Thoughts.

How to free yourself from these thoughts?

Think about how sleep is important for you to win tomorrow, to face life well tomorrow, to stay healthy in life.

Once you succeed in triggering a thought, explore it, use your mind's energy to make it look more real, build stories, and channel your thoughts into it till you fall asleep.

That minor symptom that may be some grave disease.

Strong positive memories.
