As a kid I had a hard time getting to sleep (small home, could hear everything). I eventually learned to block everything out and sleep using the following routine:
1. Start breathing as slow as possible.
2. Count breathes, starting at 100 and working back.
That usually did the trick.
- masters3d 11y agoWhat happens when you hit zero? Do you go to negative numbers? =)
- th0waway 11y agoI don't remember ever hitting 0.
- jotux 11y agoI occasionally do something similar. I count breathes starting at one and try to visualize what each number would look like, in detail. Focusing completely on something so very simple helps clear my mind of whatever I'm thinking about.
