FORMATPaperback LANGUAGEEnglish CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description
Do you have trouble sleeping? Do you worry about the fact that you are awake when you want to be asleep, and how tired you will feel during the day? You are not alone. One in three of us experiences problems sleeping - often triggered by stress, illness and getting older. Practising mindfulness meditation regularly can help change our relationship to sleep. As well as helping to reduce our overall stress, we learn to become less reactive and more accepting of being awake, which in turn reduces our anxiety around not sleeping. This may mean we drift off to sleep, but even if we are still awake, the mind is quieter. In Mindfulness and Sleep Anna Black introduces mindfulness and explains how it can help change your relationship to sleep as well as reduce stress. There are 25 practices and activities that introduce mindfulness and how to practise it. These include meditations for night- and daytime, as well as everyday activities that shine a light on our habitual patterns and behaviours and help create better habits to support the body's self-regulating sleep system. There is also a sleep diary, which allows you to make notes about what you discover when you pay attention to what helps and hinders you in sleeping.
