How Meditation Can Help Sleep

By Irene S. Roth

There’s nothing more than getting a good night’s sleep. Yet, because our minds are overactive and our bodies are underactive, it can be hard to get a good night sleep. Therefore, slowing down your thoughts can help you to fall asleep and stay asleep.

Meditation can help you tremendously in this regard. Its very important to meditate regularly for best results. Develop a meditation schedule that works for you and that you can continue, regardless of how busy your life gets.

In addition, try to move more. Even fifteen to twenty minutes of exercise a day to start can make such a big difference in your sleep quality. Try to get outside into nature as well. This can help you to feel better about yourself, and it can help you feel more relaxed. This relaxed mindset can help you fall asleep and stay asleep.

As we get older, getting to sleep and staying sleep can be hard. We toss and turn because of pain and e are always looking for a way to sleep better. Some of us are unable to exercise more because our energy levels are low. And the less sleep we get, the worse we will feel and the less exercise we get. Its just a complete negative cycle to be in. to keep yourself healthy, start by walking a bit, a few minutes a day and setting up a meditation practise. The rest should take care of itself.

Remember sleep is not a subsidiary thing. Its not a waste of time as some believe. Instead, when we don’t get enough sleep, we can develop diabetes, high blood pressure, and we can comprise our immune system. Therefore, try not to compromise on sleep. Its as important as eating a healthy meal and breathing.
