Struggling To Sleep?

Описание: #ad How do you get it to stop spinning? Here’s a few things you can do to help still the mind so that you can get a full night of sleep: 
  
1.      Keep a worry list, a pen and paper by your bed. When you catch yourself worrying about something at night, write it down. That list becomes a promise to yourself that you will make time to tackle those worries productively tomorrow, in the light of day. This way, you don’t feel that you have to hold them in mind to remember what you need to do. 
2.      Keep bringing the focus of your attention back to the present moment. Worry thoughts are all based in the future that isn’t here yet and ruminations are all about the past. To still the mind, we need to notice when the mind has drifted to the past or future and gently guide our attention back to the here and now. This is not easy to do when you have things to worry about. And let’s face it, who can even remember to meditate at the end of the day? You might not realise this but if you have a Samsung device you have access to Mindfulness tracker which helps make setting health habits simple. This will remind you when to meditate, check your mood and offer recommendations for guided meditations. 
3.      Breath work is another effective way to bring the body to a state of calm after a stressful day. But this is another practise that benefits from guidance to help you time each breath. Breathing exercises are also available on the Mindfulness feature on your Samsung Galaxy phone, so definitely check it out - it’s yours for free!
