I had a very strange experience a couple of nights ago. I had been having trouble going to sleep for a few nights, and that isn't common for me. If I have trouble sleeping, I wake up at 2 or 3 am and can't go back to sleep until 5 or 6 am, then I have to get up at 7 am - it makes for a short night. I've done some of my best work between 4 and 5 am!
But I digress: I had been tired before I went to bed and thought I would just drift gently off to dreamland - but no. I closed my eyes and the weirdest thing happened: it was like seeing the back of my retina (ala the eye doctor visit) but it was just popping in and out and back and forth. I opened my eyes then closed them again, same thing. I'd gone to Des Moines a few weeks ago and gotten a session with Fonda Hall, my Body Talk™ instructor, and one of the techniques she'd used was the "Switching" technique. This is part of the Body Talk™ self-help regimen, too, but I hadn't used it for awhile. Seeing all of that strange light show made me think of it, though, and it 'deSwitched' myself in a few minutes. I had the best night's sleep that I've had for a long time.
If you are troubled with insomnia, you might give me a call and check out the different techniques that help bring a body back to balance!
