Nocturia and Meditation – BionicOldGuy

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

I bought recommendation on find out how to repair this from an expensive pal years in the past that has labored effectively for me, and I attempt to cross it on to associates who’ve this drawback. It helps if you understand how to meditate. You don’t need to be excellent 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 wish 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 night time, she mentioned to suppose to your self, “nice, that is the proper time to meditate, as a result of I received’t fret by falling asleep”. Your thoughts, which doesn’t wish to meditate, will see falling asleep because the lesser of two evils. Works like a champ for me.
