Binkynoo, hope you are feeling better and having sweet dreams. I have had horrible nightmares from time to time... chamomile tea helps me a lot too. Hang in there, all will be well...... eventually... Prayers and good thoughts, Tamra

Hi, Binkynoo -

Yes,I occasionally get really ferociously disturbing nightmares. But they are not

nearly as bad or as often, like when I was younger ........ Thank goodness !

Guess I will go and make a cup of chamomile tea, too. Thanks for planting the

idea in my head !

Sweet dreams, my dear.

Binky, i got trouble to sleep last night too. I finally falling sleep at 2 am when I started meditate breathing slow in and out and telling myself no worries about anything, and at a point I breathe the same way when I wake up in a deep sleep.

I had been do that lately to put myself on sleep, I sometimes thinking about my grandfather who loves and carrying the most about me. Just think about the people who loves and cares for me, I feel the love and peaceful ....to falling sleep.

Hope it helps a little.

Good lucks

Sorry to hear about your nightmares, bless you!! I think you could try deep breathing and tell yourself good things when you wake up out of a bad dream such as 'this dream will not happen, it's only a dream', 'good things will happen to me and my family, this dream won't take place in reality', 'something good is around the corner', 'I won't let this dream shake me, I will be strong and bold and have a good sleep'. You could also record yourself speaking good things that you could listen to in bed. You could also watch videos, or message a friend or watch a movie if you feel really uneasy. Also try sleeping at a set tome each night, and avoid things like cheese, chocolate, coffee or heavy meals after 8pm. You are never alone, we are all hear for you :-) xx
