I can’t sleep! This has been happening a lot lately. I have been pretty stressed out in recent months. I went to the acupuncturist today and felt much more grounded after having all those needles in my back to help balance my energies.
I love my sleep. I very rarely have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep. So why can’t I sleep? I laid down and felt like I was going to fall asleep and then it happened..MY MIND took over. What did it want? What is it saying? And who is IT anyway? Well whoever IT is –I am not happy with IT right now for disturbing my sleep rhythms. As if its outside of me. I am thinking if I talk to IT like it’s separate maybe it will leave me alone so I will fall back to sleep. OK, I am joking. I am my mind or am I? This is why I am calling this my early morning or my middle of the night musings!
I started worrying. This is not typical of me. I do NOT do this. I lay down and I fall asleep. I set my intention for a beautiful night’s sleep and I go into-what I like to call–my non-physical self and journey. This is where all my deeper experiences come alive and I work everything out. My sleep and journeys are equivalent to Disney movies. As a matter of fact I call them my Disney dreams or Disney moments. They are usually in color and have lots of talking animals. So why can’t I sleep? What has happened that I can’t find my peace in sleep. This is very disturbing and keeping me awake. So which comes first: the fact that I can’t sleep or the fact that I am disturbed/worried which is then keeping me awake. Wow–isn’t that a twister.
I could attribute it to this Cardinal Grand Cross that all the astrologers are talking about. I don’t really follow astrology that much but I have noticed that I’ve been tossed around a lot lately by the Universal energies. So I am listening more closely to what is happening astrologically. OK- I will attribute my lack of being able to fall asleep to this astrological event. So now can I go back to sleep or rather try to fall asleep? Or would I rather keep writing about how I can’t sleep. I am now finding all of this quite amusing. So I guess I will keep writing for a bit longer. Oh…you wouldn’t know this but I dozed while writing that last sentence. I guess this is similar to a bedtime story that I am telling myself or actually writing to myself. It seems to be working because my eyes are feeling heavier and I am looking longingly at my down pillow imagining my head touching it. OK here goes.
If I am going to go into a Disney Dream I need a carpet of flowers to lay down in.
