I just wanted to say I've adapted this to help getting to sleep and it's amazing!
I don't suffer from anxiety as such but do worry about things and always lie in bed mulling over things and trying to work things out or plan things, adrenalin going round, thinking about things that have happened, working etc, and it usually takes me ages to get to sleep.
I read about this so thought I would have a go and never get past the first time cos it really sends me off! Unbelievable!
I just do:
I can hear
I can see ( but I can't because my eyes are closed so I just imagine what I can see - usually connected to the sound)
I can feel.
I just think of one sound or feeling at a time and then concentrate on it for a while.
What's funny about it, is that there are so few sounds as I live in a village in the country that is absolutely silent at night past about 11.15 - unless there is any wind - so usually all I can hear is me or my husband's breathing, or the odd gurgle (insides
!) - but it still works so thanks
