Go Back to Sleep – Use this gentle, permissive hypnosis session to get you back to sleep after waking up.
Many people find they fall asleep without difficulty, but then wake in the early morning and can't get back to sleep. Quality sleep is, of course, essential to good physical and mental health.
Waking up in the night means we get less of the essential recuperative slow wave sleep we need to feel refreshed.
If this happens to you, you may find you feel quite alert and unable to get back off to sleep again.
Short waking periods are normal
Most people wake up at some point during the night but never really become properly consciously awake and so forget it.
These nocturnal awakenings may last only a few seconds but are actually a natural part of the sleep cycle.
But it's when these periods last longer that it starts to take its toll on you.
Does worrying keep you awake?
Maybe when you wake up you start to worry. Of course worrying causes the release of stimulant stress hormones, and so make it less likely you will go back to sleep.
And of course, if you wake up after a nightmare or bad dream, you can feel very alert indeed.
Although it may at times seem elusive, sleep is actually fairly easily trained. But like any training process, you need to be consistent. Waking up in the night can become a habit and so happens because your unconscious mind now expects it to happen.
If you wake in the night you should never:
- Turn on bright lights as this will activate light cells in your brain which will then wake you up even more-keep things dark
- Watch TV or surf the internet-both these activities will stimulate your brain
- Take any stimulants such as tea, coffee or colas for obvious reasons
- Worry or fret about what has happened or what you expect to happen.
Skills to use when you wake up
This session will teach how to enter deep hypnotic trance whilst giving your unconscious mind suggestions to sleep through. It will also give you a self hypnotic method to use to get back to sleep even if you do wake up.
Because if you train your brain and body to relax when you do wake up then very quickly your instincts learn that there is no reason or stimulation reward for waking up so it stops bothering.
This session will just peter out and you will not be asked to awaken from it so that you can use it in the night if you do wake up.
