Relax and Sleep Better
Apr 28 2010
That’s the message I heard on the radio driving to work this morning.
The program guest said, “Are you having a hard time falling to sleep at night? Waking in the morning not feeling refreshed?”
The individual went on to talk about how Americans are living on adrenalin. We are constantly connected, engaged and it is becoming more and more difficult to unwind at the end of the day.
Yup, that’s me I thought.
We’ve all heard the physical and emotional consequences of not a doing good job managing stress in our lives.
The guest on the radio show suggested meditation as a way to relax at the end of the day. Unplug from TV, video games, reading, or other activities that stimulate your body and brain.
Maybe it’s worth a try. I found some great suggestions at the Mayo Clinic web site and even a relaxation exercise video you might want to check out too.
How about you—do you have any mediation exercises or tried and true activities to help you unwind at the end of the day you’d like to tell us about?
