Nocturia and Meditation – BionicOldGuy

I, together with lots of mates my age, can have hassle sleeping at evening, particularly when waking up in the course of the evening. This may be made worse by “nocturia” or having to rise up to pee a number of instances per evening, which is widespread amongst older of us. This may result in issues getting again to sleep, particularly if in case you have a “busy mind” that you simply don’t know easy methods to flip off.

I acquired recommendation on easy methods to repair this from an expensive pal years in the past that has labored nicely for me, and I attempt to cross it on to mates who’ve this drawback. It helps if you understand how to meditate. You don’t should be excellent at it, you could be a newbie (I gave newbie recommendation on meditation right here). Most individuals with “busy brains” discover their thoughts doesn’t need to cooperate meditating, it needs to be flitting round from thought to thought (or fear to fret). One other drawback when meditating is falling asleep. Right here’s the place the recommendation from my pal, who was additionally a meditator, is available in. In the course of the evening, she mentioned to assume to your self, “nice, that is the right time to meditate, as a result of I gained’t agonize by falling asleep”. Your thoughts, which doesn’t need to meditate, will see falling asleep because the lesser of two evils. Works like a champ for me.
