When I can’t sleep, I turn around and sleep “upside down” - moving my pillows to where my feet were beforehand, and my feet to where my head was beforehand - and I stick with that for a week or so. It gives me a week or so without insomnia and then wears off, so I have to turn myself back around for the next 7-12 day period.
Admittedly this could just be a me thing, but let’s put our faith in this method and let the power of placebo effect take hold. Boom, minor bouts of sleeplessness are cured.
What are your own examples of this?
I did it for years and im pretty sure it is the cause of the mechanical apnea i have. Ive cut box breath out of my habits and traded it for body checkins. I think its improving the apnea. Slowly. Once the brain builds a habit of holding breath it is super hard to make it let go.
