Fall Asleep in LESS than 3 Minutes!

                                          Problems in Sleeping?

Do you suffer from insomnia? Or do you find it difficult to fall alseep? No worries!! Sometimes, even I find it difficult to drowse off to Dreamland after a long hectic day at work.

In fact, I frequently find myself wondering and pondering what is the reason that I cannot seem to bring myself to sleep and I might HAVE FOUND a solution! 

I am now using the '4-7-8' method. Sounds strange to you? TRY IT OUT and see if it works for you like its working for me!!

First thing you should do before you use this method is to try NOT TRYING. You might say what is the catch in this? Its pretty simple. Instead of trying to put yourself to sleep, try instead the other way - TRY NOT TO FALL ASLEEP! Try staying with your eyes wide open and not moving at all (YES, you can blink!) And this way you may find that after a certain time, you will start falling asleep much earlier than you used to try and fall asleep before! You can watch a video explaining this here.

Now for the '4-7-8' Method....

What you need to do is pretty EASY:

• Breathe calmly as much as possible through your nose for 4 seconds
• Hold your breath for 7 seconds
• Breathe through your mouth slowly for 8 seconds

Sounds Simple huh?!

You may think that I am joking but try it out and see for yourselves!! Last night, I wasn't even able to finish off the last step before I was snoring my head off!!

Want to know how it works?

Simple Physiology! When you are stressed out or anxious (Especially when the day after you might have an important exam or an interview), the adrenaline in your body increases which in return leads to faster breathing and your heart starts beating faster too. When you are breathing calmly - you are forcing the rhythm of your heart to slow down too - making you feel calmer instantly.

It calms down your mind! Without your knowing, you are concentrating entirely on your breathing. When your central nervous systems slows down any gradual activity, any anxiety that you might have will disappear. 

It's pretty HARMLESS! When performing this exercise, you are relaxing your whole body and you achieve a complete state of relaxation. The speed that it works can be compared to an anesthetic as it acts so fast that you find yourself dreaming in minutes!
