12 September

I have many friends who struggle with sleep. I’ve never been a fantastic sleeper either. This modified section from Claire Weekes I think is worth repeating regularly. I’m not sure I’ve met anybody who struggled with sleep who wasn’t making the same mistake. They were all *trying* to sleep, in some way. “Don’t be too concerned because you can’t sleep. The very act of being prepared to accept being awake relaxes your mind, and relaxation of body gradually follows. You don’t have to strive for sleep. You have to wait for it.”
