Hey dear,
I have a confession to make - I LOVE to have a good night’s rest.
I came across an article online about 3 sleeping exercises anyone can do to sleep better.
1) 4-7-8 breathing technique
-
Allow your lips to gently part.
-
Exhale completely, making a breathy whoosh sound as you do.
-
Press your lips together as you silently inhale through the nose for a count of 4 seconds.
-
Hold your breath for a count of 7.
-
Exhale again for a full 8 seconds, making a whooshing sound throughout.
-
Repeat 4 times when you first start. Eventually, work up to 8 repetitions.
2) Three-part breathing exercise
-
Take a long, deep inhale.
-
Exhale fully while focusing intently on your body and how it feels.
-
After doing this a few times, slow down your exhale so that it’s twice as long as your inhale.
3) Diaphragmatic breathing exercise
-
Lie on your back and either bend your knees over a pillow or sit in a chair.
-
Place one hand flat against your chest and the other on your stomach.
-
Take slow, deep breaths through your nose, keeping the hand on your chest still as the hand on your stomach rises and falls with your breaths.
-
Next, breathe slowly through pursed lips.
-
Eventually, you want to be able to breathe in and out without your chest moving.
Personally, I like the three-part breathing exercise because it is so simple to do and effective for me.
“But, Jenny, what if these exercises don’t work for me?”
Not a problem.
For us crystal lovers, our crystals are here to save the day.
Did you know that Amethyst crystals are said to help people with insomnia to sleep better?
It has high-frequency energy that purifies the aura of any negative energy or attachments, and creates a protective shield of Light around the body, allowing one to remain clear and centered on any negative or distracting thoughts.
So you can sleep better, without doing any exercises or only relying on medication. (that can have harmful side-effects)
Simply put your amethyst crystal below your pillow and imagine yourself going into lalaland.
Time for me to catch my beauty sleep as well.
Goodnight.
Jenny
P.S. Over 60 million people suffer from Insomnia in the US alone.
But you don’t have to if you have the Amethyst crystal to clear away all the thoughts that are on your mind constantly.
