Insomnia and its panacea
Well, I had troublesome nights and certainly, you did too. Not able to go to bed on time is the worst thing you could do. Head resting on the pillow, mind would be wandering. You could hear the silence and could even hear the ghost whispering outside. You could get all the time in the world to recall the worst incident you have experienced, maybe the scary scene from the horror movie or crematorium you have been to. Everything would resonate in your mind. The orchestration of drama would continue till the crack of the dawn. Finally, when it is time for waking up, you would go into a deep sleep. making it impossible for you to go with the flow. In your head, everything would seem going down the drain. Overwhelming repentance and dismay would pervade your mind.
Not to mention that not sleeping on time steals precious time, it causes a ripple effect tearing down the good habit cultivated arduously. Falling back and climbing up the ladder of life would be challenging. You now would feel exhausted and feel like giving up. Perhaps, life would only grow messier then.
Leonardo da Vinci opined that a well-spent day brings a good night's sleep and so will the well lead life secure peaceful death. The simple and effective trick to break the chain of not able to sleep on time is shared by Robin Sharma in his book "The 5 Am Club", which I am sharing with you. He urges us to maintain the daily journal. In it, we should reflect on at least three important commitments for the day. It should be executed by hook or crook. Towards the evening when all is done, you feel accomplished and well-spent. Your mind will be at ease. Nothing to worry about, you would naturally fall asleep on time. This would instigate positive feelings in your mind like leading a more meaningful and fruitful life and releases abundant dopamine. Ultimately, you are happy and happiness is what we all are after.
