Insomnia is painful. After a hard day’s work, in order to have a good spirit to work the next day, lying in bed, constantly and anxiously urge themselves to fall asleep quickly, the result is often counterproductive, or even toss and turn until the early morning. How can I sleep peacefully when I have insomnia? The following points will help: 1, understand the three times the sleepy bug comes Our ancestors gave us the same sleep rhythm inherited, requiring us to work at sunrise and rest at sunset. The first sleepy time is 9:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., which is the golden time to sleep, this time to sleep is most conducive to physical and mental health. Now in rural areas, most folks still fall asleep at this time, and they rarely have insomnia. After 9:00 to 10:00 this time, not much want to sleep, the second sleepy time is about 12:00 p.m. 12:00 p.m. is an important time demarcation point. 12:00 p.m. sleep before, can ensure better energy and physical repair; and after 12:00 p.m. sleep, even if the next morning with a longer sleep to supplement, can not achieve the effect of sleep before 12:00 p.m.. If you have not fallen asleep at night after 12 o’clock, often the mind becomes unusually calm and sober, active thinking, this is a good time for the writer to work, but if you fall asleep after 12 o’clock for a long time, it is not good for health. 12 after, if you want to sleep again will have to wait for the arrival of the third drowsy bug at about 3 o’clock in the morning, if it is often brought to sleep by the third drowsy bug, it is dizzy, the whole body is weak, the mind is not sure, not good. No spirit, bad mood, easy to lose temper. Knowing the law of the three times the sleepyhead comes can help to grasp the rhythm of sleep: once you have missed a chance, you can simply not rush! Anyway, the sleepyhead has not yet come, awake is still awake, either get up to do something boring or meaningful, or rest and wait for the next sleepyhead, not to spend too long lying in bed anxiously tormenting themselves to rush to sleep. 2, avoid the stimulation before bed Everyone knows that drinking night tea and coffee before bed can lead to insomnia hand. Some people even drink a few sips of tea in the early morning, but also lead to the whole night can not sleep. For people who are prone to insomnia, it is important to master their tolerance level for tea and coffee, which are stimulating drinks, and should be avoided if a little bit of it affects sleep. Some activities also have an effect on falling asleep. For people who do not have trouble falling asleep, even if they thunder in their ears and pour water on their bodies, they can still sleep soundly. But for people who are often plagued by insomnia and fear of sleep, the slightest stimulation before bedtime will make it more difficult to fall asleep. Bathing before bed, watching exciting programs, strenuous exercise, etc. often lead to difficulty in falling asleep, these activities should be arranged before going to bed for an hour. 3, learn a few self-hypnosis methods When it comes to self-hypnosis, people think of counting sheep, and often hear insomniacs say they have been counting sheep until the early hours of the morning, or did not fall asleep. For English-speaking people, counting sheep may be a way to help them sleep, but for Chinese people, it rarely has a particularly good effect. Because “sheep” and “sleep” are similar in English, when counting “sheep”, it can imply “sleep “, but the difference between “sheep” and “sleep” for Chinese people is so far that counting “sheep” cannot imply “sleep However, the difference between “sheep” and “sleep” in Chinese people is so far that counting “sheep” cannot suggest “sleep”. According to the principle of hypnosis, I created a set of self-hypnosis techniques that are easy to learn and effective. I named it “driving hypnosis”, and the method is as follows: after turning off the lights, lie comfortably on the bed, close your eyes, and feel your lower limbs, abdomen, chest, arms, shoulders and back, neck, head, and eyes are relaxed in turn; then start to imagine yourself driving a small car from the parking lot to a place hundreds of kilometers away. Then you start to imagine yourself driving a car from a parking lot to a place hundreds of kilometers away. From the moment you “sit” in the car, you should “pay attention” to everything around you, for example, when you leave the parking lot, you should “notice” that the buildings around you are slowly receding. Gradually came to the street, to “see” most of the familiar scenes around; through the streets and alleys, to the various levels of highway, to “see” the mountains in front of the approaching, the roadside slowly receding trees, farmland, villages. Just keep driving until you reach your destination, and if you don’t fall asleep when you get there, then drive back the same way. I let some simple insomnia patients try this “driving hypnosis method”, and no one could reach their destination because they fell asleep before they reached it. When I see insomnia patients in my clinic, these are the things I must tell them. Some people have solved their insomnia suffering for years by relying on these few tricks alone. Patients with anxiety and depression often have severe sleep disorders, and with the aid of the above methods, they can avoid the application of too many sleeping pills. Therefore, I share this knowledge with you on “Dr. Cheng Dong’s personal website” in the hope that it will help people who suffer from insomnia at night to sleep peacefully.
