| Re: Sleep Issues
I know a great "pill" prescribed to me by a doctor. It helped me a lot many years ago when I just couldn't fall asleep.
When in bed lie down on your back, place your hand over your tummy (just below the ribs). Inhale slowly through the nose, exhale slowly and hold your breath for few seconds (on exhale!!). The hand helps to make sure you breathe "in the stomach" not in the chest. Count: "one". Repeat.
It should be comfy, don't force yourself too much to hold the breath, on the other hand keep it long enough to notice. Your breathing should remain regular. Do until 50 or whatever count.
When I tried I could hardly recall the next day whether I was able to reach 20 or only 15!!
Let me know how this will go.
