Nocturia and Meditation – BionicOldGuy

I, together with a number of pals my age, can have hassle sleeping at evening, particularly when waking up in the midst of the evening. This may be made worse by “nocturia” or having to stand up to pee a number of occasions per evening, which is frequent amongst older of us. This may result in issues getting again to sleep, particularly when you’ve got a “busy mind” that you simply don’t know methods to flip off.

I received recommendation on methods to repair this from a pricey pal years in the past that has labored nicely for me, and I attempt to go it on to pals who’ve this drawback. It helps if you know the way to meditate. You don’t need to be superb at it, you is usually 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 midst of the evening, she stated to suppose to your self, “nice, that is the right time to meditate, as a result of I gained’t be concerned 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.
