Sleep Tips #3 – Sleep Promoting Activity You can Enjoy in the Evening

Sleep Promoting Activity You can Enjoy in the Evening

Most people have a routine they use to get ready for work or school or even a night out on the town.  Far fewer people, however, utilize an evening routine that leads to a good night’s sleep.  Then, these same people wonder why they are not sleeping at night!  This is not to say that your entire evening has to revolve around your sleep habits; however, there are some things you can do that will help to ensure you get a full night of restful sleep every night.

Instead of watching an edge of your seat murder mystery right before turning in, try reading a book or listening to soothing music an hour before bedtime.  This will put you in a much better frame of mind to drift off to sleep because your heart rate will not be racing from the stimulation produced from a suspenseful movie or television show. If you’ve already been essentially at rest for 30 minutes or an hour before you actually try to go to sleep, you’re going to have a much better chance of falling asleep and staying asleep.

Another activity you can do in the evening to help you to fall asleep is journaling.  Journaling has many therapeutic benefits and by “purging” your mind of all the things you may think about once you lie down, you’ll find that your mind is much better equipped to shut down and allow you to sleep.  Whether you write a few paragraphs or a few pages, you’ll be amazed at how much clearer your mind will be once you commit those swirling thoughts to paper.

Meditation is another activity you can practice in the evening to prepare your mind and body for a restful sleep.  Even if you just take 15 minutes to sit quietly and clear your mind, you’ll have a head start and you’ll notice the difference.  It may be hard to get into the habit at first, but once you realize the tremendous benefit of preparing your mind and body for sleep, you will soon begin to eagerly set aside that time for yourself.

You may have some other ideas of sleep promoting activities you can do in the evenings.  The most important thing is that whatever activity you choose should be stress free and relaxing.  It should be something that you look forward to.  Even a relaxing bath instead of a quick shower can make a tremendous amount of difference.  Binaural Beats audios can also be a tremendous relief for those who have trouble “shutting down” at night and can help promote a restful night’s sleep.

Sleep Like A Log With Binaural Beats

Posted by Paul Kleinmeulman on 14 July 2008

I just received another fantastic testimonial. This time from Pam Washam in Texas.

Have a listen to what binaural beats did for her.

Audio #9 – Easy Sleep

Experience: Very Satisfied

Dear Paul,

Thank you so much for making these at a price everyone can aford! You care more about people than money. That’s rare.

I began with the Easy Sleep mp3. It took a while because my brain is stubborn. I felt relaxed though and that was good. Then I felt myself moving toward the sleep zone. I was really excited! It felt wonderful to be going down that road. Finally, before it was over I really got SLEEPY! and took off the headphones so I could lay on my side. It was natural and comfortable. In just a few minutes I was sleeping! It was good sleep too.

I woke up before the alarm went off and got up to feed my animals. Usually I hate to think about getting up. Thanks again for making these available. I used the one with the white noise in it and that sound you put with the tones was just perfect for getting sleepy.

Sleep Tips #2 – Practice These Healthy Habits For A Good Nights Sleep

Practice These Healthy Habits for a Good Night’s Sleep

It can be just as difficult to get through your workday when you are tired as it is when you are sick.  While millions of Americans and others across the globe literally walk around sluggish and tired a good part of the time, it really doesn’t have to be this way regardless of how busy you are.  While many of us take the time to prepare for meetings and work and child related activities, we simply don’t take the time to prepare for a good night’s sleep and this lack of preparation is often the root of the problem.  Begin now to practice healthy habits to prepare your mind and body for a restful night’s sleep.

Our bodies respond to routines and sleep is one of the things we need to commit to a routine.  By going to bed at the same time each night and waking up at the same time each morning, you can go a long way toward ensuring you receive a restful night’s sleep each and every night.  While it is tempting for many to stay up later and sleep later on days off, try to avoid this practice as it can really throw off your sleep patterns several nights each week.

Many people like to shower in the morning when getting ready for work but there’s no reason you can’t take a long, soothing warm or hot bath right before bedtime.  Most people don’t have much time to linger in the tub or shower when they are trying to get ready for work but by taking time for yourself the night before and soaking in the tub, you can help to ensure you get a full night’s restful sleep, which will make a big difference in how you feel the following day and it can also increase your productivity exponentially!

We’ve been lured into thinking that the busier we are, the better people we are and this just isn’t true!  Far too many people take no time at all to rest until they do finally fall into bed at the end of a long day and then wonder why they can’t sleep!  Then they get up the following morning only to relive the same frenetic pace and the vicious cycle continues.  By practicing healthy habits and giving yourself the time to prepare for sleep in a natural and healthy way, you may discover that you get even more done, not to mention you’ll feel so much better.

Relaxation With Binaural Beats…

Posted by Paul Kleinmeulman on 24 April 2008

Gosh it’s been such a long time since I have had a chance to write on my blog… I’m embarrased.

But this is a topic I just had to write about because binaural beats are especially powerful in this area.

Relax With Binaural Beats…

Binaural beats are beats that are specifically designed to reach altered states of consciousness. They do so by forcing your brain into certain brain wave frequencies.

This process is called entrainment. Entrainment, also called brainwave synchronization, is the practice of altering one’s brainwaves frequency by means of a periodic stimulus with corresponding frequency.

The stimulation can be aural, as in the case of binaural beats, but the stimuli can be visual, like in the case of dream machines. It can also be both aural and visual, like with a mind machine. You can also entrain someone’s brain wave frequency through electromagnetic radiation.

Every brain wave frequency range will produce a state that will correspond to a certain mind state. For example, if you brain is operating in the beta brain wave frequency range, the area of external activity (physical, muscular, nervous, emotional and intellectual) will be dynamic in your personality. This is the range in which your brain waves are usually in when you are practicing activities that require your utmost attention.

If you brain is in a theta state, then you will feel a bit drowsy like in an early sleep state. This is the range where most of our daydreaming takes place. If you ever were once on the freeway and couldn’t remember what happened in the last 5 miles, chances are you were in a theta state.

If you’re brain is in the Delta state, then you are probably in deep sleep. The delta state can also be reached by skilled meditation practitioners. This is the lowest brain wave frequency range. If you go below the delta state, you will be in what is called a “brain dead” state.

But if you are in an alpha state, you will be in a state of relaxation but still be well awake. The alpha state is the state between the beta state and the theta state and this is the zone you want to be in when you are trying to achieve better relaxation.

So if you want to achieve that goal with binaural beats, you have to go with recordings that target that specific range. There are plenty of different binaural beat recordings out there specifically made for that purpose (check out my set of audios at http://www.MyMindShift.com.

These recordings are designed to bring your brain waves into the 8 Hz to 14 Hz frequency range. This is the range in which your brainwaves are when they are in the alpha state. You will then feel as relaxed when you listen properly to these recordings as you usually would if you were to reach the same state through some other method.

But you will need a very good set of head phones to take advantage of all the benefits of binaural beats. Since binaural beats will only work if each separate ear is stimulated with a clearly distinct frequency, you will not be able to get results if you use standard speakers.

Never before have we been given the opportunity to “tune” our mind up to specific mind states with external sources of stimuli. If used properly, binaural beats can be a very effective way to release stress and dramatically improve one’s life quality…
