In our fast paced world we often take sleep for granted. Yet a good night's sleep can do wonders from your overall mood and in particular your coping resources - just ask any new mum!
Sleep deprivation has in fact been used as a form of torture, so you can see that this is a vital part of your overall health. It's not about the number of hours sleep you gain either, it's about the quality of your sleep. Thus it's very important that you find a way to wind down before going to bed.
Deepak Chopra suggests trying to go to bed prior to 10pm and even if you're not sleeping initially when in bed, going to bed with the attiude that it's all about rest and restoration will help you to wind down and relax about the process.
If you're having trouble with your sleep, try listening to a meditation CD prior to sleeping. The Happy Life meditation sleep CD is a great way to relax all the muscles of your body prior to sleep and to wake up feeling refreshed in the morning. For more information on this CD visit:
