To help reduce anxiety related to sleep problems, start to treat yourself more softly. Many people give themselves a hard time, why don't you give yourself an easy time for a change? Make your self-talk so gentle- almost like a whisper. You can also speak to your self like your best friend would; encouraging and complimenting. The conversations you have with yourself are the most important you will ever have. http://inspirehypnotherapy.com/2015/08/sleeping-well-for-busy-minds

Allowing time through the day for rest, teaches your body how to slow down at night. Contre to popular belief, being exhausted doesn't create a healthy sleep pattern- being balanced does. Allow time to be busy and time to be still each day. http://inspirehypnotherapy.com

Getting 6 hours sleep is the minimum recommended, if you are getting this much, you are likely going to be okay. Getting 6 hours sleep means you get in 4 full sleep cycles, which is where your body does most of it's important repairing and mental processing.

Top Techniques To Sleep Well.
1. The first thing to look at when you have a sleep problem, is to check that you have a feeling of safety to go to sleep. Are your doors and windows closed and locked at night? If not, their could be an unconscious fear keeping sleep at bay. There is no advantage to leaving your doors unlocked at night. Check that your house is locked and you live with people that make you feel safe. http://inspirehypnotherapy.com

How much of your sleep problem is caused by you worrying about sleep? It can be a destructive cycle to go through, but there are ways to end it. Rest assured you probably do get more sleep than you think. You can catch up sleep with a 20 minute nap (longer is not recommended in general). Spending time in activity (like sport) and rest (like meditation) is great for the sleep cycle and your energy. Spend time in both activity and rest each day. Sleep Well

What question do you have about sleep, that you would love to have answered today?

Sometimes we are kept awake at night with a really active mind. Your brain can only process so many thoughts on its own. Spending a little time each day pausing and being aware of your thoughts, can reduce a busy mind at night. Try journal writing for 5 minutes before sleep. Putting your thoughts to paper literally takes a load off your mind. Sleep well.

Everyone wakes up in the middle of the night from time to time. Follow these practical solutions to minimise the negative effects. When you do wake up, avoid checking your phone, avoid facebook, avoid eating at this time (water is okay).

When you wake up; relax and focus on your breathing, do 5 minutes of writing if something is on your mind, do go to the toilet if needed.

It is wise not to see anything as to positive or negative. The things that keep you awake at night are really polarised, either perceived as too positive or negative. If I lost $1 million or gained $1 million today, that would keep me awake tonight. A balanced perspective would mean seeing an equal number of positives and negatives to any situation, which is actually true perspective.

It is possible to slow down your thinking at night. Adding rest periods in your day helps you to check in mentally and process your emotions. Schedule rest periods in your diary as if they were an appointment, that way you know you'll do it. Tell clients and family you have an appointment and take a time-out. Don't underestimate the power of pausing.

How do you spend the last hour of time before sleep? If you have sleep problems this is essential to get right. The following are things that will disrupt your sleep pattern if done too close to bed-time; looking at your phone or TV (the led/lcd lights delay the release of your sleep hormones), having a heavy meal, drinking alcohol, checking emails in bed, evening exercise.

The following is an example of a good pre-sleep routine; reading your favourite book, tidying your sleep space, having a shower, writing tomorrow's to-do list and checking the doors are locked. www.inspirehypnotherapy.com

Sleep Apnea Top Tips. Ironically some people try to use alcohol or sleeping tablets to get to sleep. Many sleeping tablets are known to increase the negative effects of sleep apnea. Alcohol may help you get to sleep, but as it metabolises in the body it becomes a stimulant and just wakes you up later in the night.

Reducing your weight, avoiding alcohol, sleeping at a regular time and body movement are your starting point for reducing the negative effects of sleep apnea.

Environmental factors can play a big role in sleeping well. Check that you have a darkened room for sleep and use white noise to mask disruptive sounds. For comfort, an ideal temperature for sleep can be found between 18'C - 22'C. www.inspirehypnotherapy.com/all-services/
