HOW DOES SLEEP MEDITATION HELP?

1. Relax

By relaxing your body and mind before sleep, it helps to quiet distracting thoughts. When your body and mind is in a relaxed state it’s easier to disconnect.

2. Calm breath

During meditation your breath slows down. This improves your cardiovascular health. Fast breathing speeds ageing. In the animal world it’s the marine turtles that live the longest. They only breathe 4-5 times a minute and can live up to 200 years. On the other hand, rabbits only live up to 6 years. They have rapid breathing and breathe 60 times per minute!

3. Disconnect

We live in a world where technology makes it possible to be connected 24/7. If the mind is “alert” all day long and never get’s a break due to over-work, it’s almost impossible to fall asleep at night. The reason to this is “high vata”. In other words the air energy is too high in the body which causes irregular sleep, restlessness and may lead to digestive issues.

4. Tech free bedroom

For best sleep, its’ important that your bedroom is free or artificial lights from wifi or TV. Have a clean and tech free bedroom. This will make your sleep meditation practise much more profound.

CAUSES OF SLEEP PROBLEMS

There are many different reasons to why you may have sleep problems. Sleep problems can be related to emotional stress. Stress at work. Life stresses. Mental stress. It can also be a cause of environmental issues (noise, too much tech around, untidy bedroom, an accumulated closet)
