Do any of these sound familiar?
- Have trouble getting to sleep
- Can’t stay asleep
- Wake up several times during the night
- Wake up too early
- Don’t feel refreshed in the morning
If you answered yes to any of these, then let me introduce you to insomnia. Insomnia, or lack of good quality sleep affects our whole life. We tend to be irritable, have no motivation or energy, we feel exhausted, our concentration is impaired, our immunity becomes depleted, we age faster and generally feel drained.
Simple sleep solutions.
- Don’t drink caffeine after 2pm
- Don’t eat or drink just before going to bed
- Go to bed when you are tired
- Adopt relaxing pre-sleep activities an hour before going to bed
To expand on the last solution of pre-sleep, engage in some form of relaxation such as having a bath, watching TV or reading a book. The best form of relaxation I have found is listening to binaural beats meditation music on my ipod. They were quick and easy to download and they are fantastic for getting a great nights sleep. Binaural beats are available in MP3 format as well as CD’s.
To use binaural beats sleep meditation simply find a nice comfy chair where you won’t be distracted, sit down, plug your earphones in, close your eyes and listen to the sound track of calming “relaxation’ music. It is that easy and the benefits are well worth making the time to do it.
Binaural beats are the result of two sounds of different frequency, one sound to each ear. It has been proven that the differing frequencies affect the “sub cortical auditory system” of the brain, causing deep states of relaxation and a sense of peace. Because of this effect, the binaural sleep meditation technique is so successful and it only takes a few minutes to take effect.
In short, binaural beats offer a real alternative method to gain relaxation and better sleep. It is my experience that the best way to learn about their power is to listen to them.
