Sleep, Sleep, Perfect Sleep

Sleep studies conducted globally show without exception that we all need a good night’s sleep, with some disturbing findings about long term effects of poor quality sleep. These include obesity, diabetes, heart disease, stomach ulcers, depression, and may even accelerate onset of Alzheimer’s disease. Your ability to think is also affected, resulting in difficulties with retaining memories, processing information and making decisions.

Here are just a few tips to help you have a more restful night:

Sleep in complete darkness
Keep your bedroom cool (and wear bedsocks!)
Reduce the disruptive effect of electro-magnetic fields (EMF’s) by removing mobiles, computers and hands-free phones, as these can disrupt the pineal gland and production of melatonin and serotonin
Make sure you have a good quality mattress and bedding
Go to bed at the same time every night (not too late)
Avoid caffeine, alcohol, cheese or chocolate within 2 hours of bedtime, but a high protein snack or small piece of fruit a couple of hours before sleep may be beneficial
No TV before bed as it stimulates the brain, and no exciting books in bed!
Listen to relaxation CDs such as white noise or nature sounds
Keep a notepad by your bed and jot down anything that is worrying you before you snuggle down.

Tried all these and still no luck? Then it may be time for you to get some additional help – and I’m not talking about sleeping pills! Over the years, I’ve seen many clients who consult me for help with sleep problems. I always start by taking a thorough case history and reviewing their ‘sleep hygiene’ routine. What quickly becomes clear is that they have one thing in common: underlying anxiety and stress. By working with my clients in a safe and comfortable state of hypnosis, I help them to neutralise the root cause of their anxiety. I may also teach them a simple form of self-hypnosis, but after just a few sessions, they tell me they can’t do it for long as they quickly fall asleep!

Why not give me a call for a confidential chat or email me to discuss how I can help you turn your bed from a battleground to the most beautiful place in your world!
