You are absolutely right, if the stress stays so does the insomnia. Hence the advice to use a journal to write down your 'issues' before attempting to settle down to sleep. Get it off your chest and out of your mind, and by writing it down it helps clarify all the stress issues you have to deal with. Hypnosis is a great help with dealing with perception, and keeping your mind and body calm, and massage is great for relieving tense 'stressed' muscles. Not always easy just to eliminate the source, so managing methods are very helpful.<br />Thanks for your input Lucy.<br />RXRuthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17268839259752298110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8365567096067156923.post-71822217561930046972009-11-03T10:15:55.966-08:002009-11-03T10:15:55.966-08:00My advice should it be heeded is to "address ...My advice should it be heeded is to "address your stress" - you can have that one for free. No amount of holistic healings or drug/alcohol induced remedies can substitute dealing with the cause of your insomnia at its root cause.<br />I suggest you identify the cause of your stress, if that causes you insomnia, deal with it and get down to some guilt free proper sleep without the need to invest in massage therapy, fancy tea or whatever else you buy in as a fix to your problem.<br /><br />Deal with the stress and you've dealt with the insomnia - in theory.<br /><br />See I'm not all bad.<br /><br />PS dealing with stress is not just about learning to relax it is about identifying what causes it, then altering it or your perception of it. . . This includes other peoples driving noisy or offensive children and or adults, financial troubles, illness, death, divorce, house or job move etc.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06776102298299844518noreply@blogger.com
