Hi The British Library sell a CD of waves which I find very soothing and I think you can get wave sounds on Itunes.

I use this one Mandy, it doesnt have nature sounds but its very relaxing. There are lots with the nature sounds on youtube. Also 'Waterdance' by David Phillips is nice to listen to. :-) x+

I have a CD that I brought back from Oz a long time ago it's called KAKADU by Tony O'Conner, to quote:- Discover the magic that is Kakadu. Hear birdson the billabong, rolling thunder and stunning didgeridoo - all beautifully blended with inspiring orchestra, pan flute and acoustic guitar. It,s so relaxing I think I'll put it on now. You might find it on Ebay, worth looking for. Chris x

Hi Mandy, have you tried a Yoga Nidra CD? There are a number of versions about although I think the basic one from the Satyananda Yoga Centre in London is the best.

A local yoga teacher maybe able to offer you a 1:1 to learn relaxation?

You could also try Camomile Tea before you go to bed, practice good sleep hygiene and then once in bed, simply watch/notice your breathing, the breath in and the breath out, maybe counting the breath in and out?

Or you can try counting back from 200-0. If you make a mistake in the counting you have to begin again :-)

Another trick is to keep your eyes open no matter what!

So hope these tips help....Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Certain books help me sleep, like this:

Strongly Correlated Fermions and Bosons in Low-Dimensional Disordered Systems

Editors: Lerner, I.V., Althsuler, B.L., Fal'ko, V.I., Giamarchi, T. (Eds.)

The physics of strongly correlated fermions and bosons in a disordered envi­ ronment and confined geometries is at the focus of intense experimental and theoretical research efforts. Advances in material technology and in low temper­ ature techniques during the last few years led to the discoveries of new physical of atomic gases and a possible metal­ phenomena including Bose condensation insulator transition in two-dimensional high mobility electron structures. Situ­ ations were the electronic system is so dominated by interactions that the old concepts of a Fermi liquid do not necessarily make a good starting point are now routinely achieved. This is particularly true in the theory of low dimensional systems such as carbon nanotubes, or in two dimensional electron gases in high mobility devices where the electrons can form a variety of new structures. In many of these sys­ tems disorder is an unavoidable complication and lead to a host of rich physical phenomena. This has pushed the forefront of fundamental research in condensed matter towards the edge where the interplay between many-body correlations and quantum interference enhanced by disorder has become the key to the understand­ ing of novel phenomena.

Hi, I always used to have trouble sleeping, I find meditation really helps

and I am now practicing mindfulness there's lots of things on these you can

Google. I now sleep around seven hours and try to get up the same times and

stick to going to bed around the same time at night.

I also try the herbal teas during the evenings. Hope this helps. Ann

Hi Mandy,my son is a DJ/music producer,if you send me a list of your favourite tunes I,ll get him to put together a nice relaxing playlist for you.Alternatively I could make up a tape for you of me talking ( I could put anybody to sleep in seconds ) and I,ll even throw in some wind .Keep smiling,David. 🙊

Hi Mandy,

There's loads of stuff on youtube. Just go to the site and in the search bar enter:

sounds to sleep and relax. Most last around 8 hours and all free. x

You could try the BBC Shop as they do all sorts of there and offer free delivery or some Garden Centres sell relaxing CD's of the kind you may like Mandy. Perhaps someone could look for you or order online. Hope you get a good night's rest as it is so important. Thinking of you and wishing you well. xxxx
