Yawn!
Yawn…wow…do you ever think that your body betrays you when it comes to sleep? You know you need it but that mind keeps just going, going and going? What the heck is up with that? I am in bed some night thinking SLEEP…need sleep! Finally sleep comes and low and behold…the dreaded whine of a dog is louder than an atomic bomb going off. So I get up… meander down the steps…let them out. Then wait. Finally, they want in. Start the journey back up stairs to find myself wide awake. No, no, no…I need sleep. This is so annoying. I crave it…more than…(I cannot believe I am going to say this) CHOCOLATE!
Knowing the long day that is before me the next day my mind begins racing…now this manic thinking is starting over again! Ack! Turn on the boob tube to see if I can just bore my self and end up finding some awesome movie that just sucks me in. I guess that was another bad choice. So, then I go make a hot tea…drink that curl up, find my self drifting into a wonderful sleep. Some how it seems that time has been flying by…open my eyes in a panic thinking I have over slept! Oh, no…I did not over sleep, as a matter of a fact…it has only been about two hours. Wow.
So, I am currently on a mission doing research on how to train my mind and body to listen to what it needs to function. the funny thing is the more that I am taking care of the physical aspects…like going to the gym the more energy I have. I wonder if all the stress is playing a part in my sleep patterns? Maybe it is me missing the noise of Tim’s snoring?
So if you have any tips or any experience on how to get your mind to shut down t night leave me a message. I am wiling at this time to see what works for others. Do not be shy..PLEASE help me with your comments!
