Worry

We can get stuck in a loupe of worry which leads to overwhelm and insomnia.  Let’s borrow benefits and tap some charge off.

KC: Even though I’m afraid I won’t be able to stop this incessant worry and  sleep tonight I accept my feelings
KC: Even though I’m anxious about not sleeping again tonight I’m open to changing this
KC: Even though there is this worry I want to move more toward calm and relaxed

EB: It won’t work
SE: How can I relax
UE: Too much on my plate
UN: I’ll never sleep
CH: I can’t stand it
CB: I’m tired of taking sleep aids and they don’t work
UA: I’m tired
TH: Why is this happening to me

EB: I need to find a solution
SE: I want to focus on what it would be like to surrender and sleep
UE: A quiet mind
UN: Letting go of this fear and worry
CH: What if I just rested all night
CB: That would be a start
UA: Quiet
TH: Just listening to the silence

EB: Focusing on my BREATH
SE: Focusing of releasing all the tension in my body
UE: Breathing into all my body parts
UN: Choosing a still and quiet mind
CH: Jotting down everything on a tablet before bed time
CB: Then letting it go
UA: Visualizing floating on a river
TH: Choosing rest and relaxing

Breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth- ahhhh

CB: If I don’t sleep I know I’ll be rested and that’s a start

When the limiting thoughts come back tap on the UE and say or think: “I think  I’ll focus on rest and if I drift off to sleep that’s a plus”
