Insomnia :: Counting Sheep
We finally figured out why it never worked for us. The old wives’ cure for insomnia is to count bouncy little sheep leaping over a fence. No wonder it doesn’t work. Bouncy sheep are hyperactive and wide awake. They’re the last thing you need to dwell on when you want to go to sleep.
Insomnia :: Sleep with Your Head Facing North
Sleep with Your Head Facing North And, obviously — unless you have a particularly unusual body — your feet facing south.
Insomnia :: Don’t Watch TV or Read Before Going to Bed
Wait at least one-half hour (preferably longer) before going to bed after reading or watching television. We know; some people say that reading a detective story or some such escapist book helps put them to sleep. If it works for them, great. But it seldom worked for us. And it probably hasn’t worked for you either.
Insomnia :: Toe Wiggling
A relaxed body is essential for a sound sleep. This may sound like we’re contradicting what we just said about our minds keeping us awake, but it’s no contradiction. Eastern sciences (such as yoga) have known for thousands of years that the mind and body are connected (actually they’re not just connected, they’re one, but the idea that they’re connected is sufficient for our purposes here.) So if the mind is not relaxed, the body is not relaxed. Conversely, the body has to be relaxed for the mind to be relaxed. It’s a package deal.
