Sleep well
Getting enough sleep is very important. Studies show that people who get less than seven hours of sleep a night tend to gain weight, are more stressed and have more heart attacks that people who sleep longer. So I believe that anything which helps us to get enough sleep is worth something.
This is a tapping rountine I often use myself – and I always use a slightly different version at the end of every evening class. Most people report they slept well afterwards, so I believe it’s worth a try.
KP: Even though I can’t find sleep tonight, I choose to fall asleep easily, sleep soundly all night, and wake up in the morning feeling rested and refreshed.
Even though I can’t seem to be able to stop my worrying, I choose to fall asleep easily, sleep soundly all night, and wake up in the morning feeling rested and refreshed.
Even thoughI’m really angry at myself for lying here awake, I choose to fall asleep easily, sleep soundly all night, and wake up in the morning feeling rested and refreshed.
IE: I can’t fall asleep!
OE: And that’s making me so mad!
UE: Which is even worse! ARGH!
UN: I just can’t fall asleep.
CP: I hate it when that happens.
CB: I get so mad at myself!
UA: Because I need that darn sleep.
AW: And I can’t get it. Meh.
Take a deep breath!
IE: I choose to fall asleep easily,
OE: I choose to sleep soundly all night.
UE: I choose to wake up wonderfully rested tomorrow morning.
UN: I choose to surprise myself by how quickly I can fall asleep now.
CP: I choose to sleep soundly all night.
CB: I choose to wake up well rested and in a good mood tomorrow morning.
UA: I choose to fall asleep easily and sleep soundly all night.
AW: And I choose to surprise myself with how well I feel tomorrow morning.
Take a deep breath!
IE: I just can’t fall asleep!
OE: But I choose to surprise myself with how quickly I can fall asleep now.
UE: I’m so angry at myself for tossing and turning.
UN: But I choose to sleep soundly through the night.
CP: I hate this tossing and turning, can’t get comfortable.
CB: But I choose to wake up well rested and happy tomorrow morning.
UA: I can’t fall asleep! Waaaah!
AW: I choose to surprise myself with how fast I can fall asleep now, how soundly I can sleep through the night and how well rested I’ll feel tomorrow morning!
Take a deep breath!
Now, this is the choices method as Dr. Pat Carrington developed it for EFT. This way of alternating between the problem and the choice frees our subconscious so it can actually make a choice.
In addition to this, you can also try the following:
Put your fingers on a tapping point, without tapping, just hold your fingers there. Take a deep, calm breath. Move to the next point, and take another deep, calming breath. Continue this through all the tapping points, and then curl up to sleep.
Sleep well!
