Synopsis

For some of us, falling asleep and staying asleep takes a creative process. This book offers new insights into why some of us may struggle with a natural bodily function, like sleeping. In this book you will find how your physical comfort is one reason you are losing sleep. But that's not the only reason we don't fall asleep and stay asleep. This book will reveal that the temperature, lighting, and electronic energy in the room will affect your sleep. I've learned that blocked energy in the body, mind, or spirit will cause sleepless nights. I show how dieting, loneliness, sexual energy and emotional pain will keep you awake. I still prepare myself at night for the ritual of falling asleep and staying asleep. Our body is run on a schedule, call our circadian rhythm. When your biological clock is out of sync, I show you ways to get back on schedule. I had to learn how to fall sleep without the use of sleep aids. I was determined, so I tried many so-called techniques, including everything, from hypnotherapy to hot toddies, to fall asleep. After years of wrestling with myself, I began using certain practices that developed into the form of rituals I still use today. Repeating the rituals made it easier to release blocked energy and to cleanse my soul from negative emotions I picked up through the day. What I share in the book are the many solutions that worked for me. By using the visualization exercises found in the book, these energy centers will release the blocked energy so that you can finally sleep. I am happy to say I sleep well now. I've learned how to use energy properly; clear blockages, exercise regularly, forgive myself and others more quickly, and use visualization rituals to natural remedies to help me fall asleep and stay asleep.

About the Author:

Why I’m qualified to write this book?
I believe I can write about sleeping disorders because I spent many years, tired.  I still prepare myself every night for the ritual of falling asleep and staying asleep.
 
Falling asleep early was uncharacteristic of me all through the teenage years. 
I thought it was great staying up late to watch late night TV, then.
I took complete advantage of my parents when my mother had to work in the evening hours and dad would hit the sack early.  I couldn’t fall asleep before midnight even if you paid me...
My biological clock was out of sync with the rest of the world. 
 
I barely slept syndrome lasted during my college days.  Those were the days when it was a perfect complement to late nights studying or going out on weekends and dancing till dawn. 
When I discovered over the counter sleep aids, I finally was able to sleep through the night.  The morning after was full of regrets and grogginess. 
It became more and more difficult to wake up in the morning on time and function throughout the day.  I was always tired and by the end of the day, exhausted. 
I gave that up for Doctor prescribed drugs.  I slept well and woke easily, although the dependency on drugs to help me sleep soon became an addiction.
 
Here I am, about to enter my forties hooked on prescription drugs to help me fall asleep.
I knew there had to be a better way.  I had to learn how to fall sleep without the use of drugs.  I was determined so I tried many so called techniques, including everything from hypnotherapy to hot toddies to fall asleep.
After years of wrestling with myself I began using certain practices that developed into the form of rituals.
Repeating the rituals made it easier to release blocked energy and to cleanse my soul from negative emotions I picked up through the day.  What I shared in the book is the many solutions that worked for me.
Now, I am happy to say I sleep well because, I’ve learned how to use energy properly, clear my blockages, forgive more quickly, and use herbal teas or sometimes melatonin to help me fall asleep.
