I put in a preaching tape or a cd with praise songs and it usually puts me to sleep.

Right on, Penny...

sometimes when I wake up for no reason super early I figure I am supposed to pray... the only really good reason I know of to be up at "O-dark-thirty"....:)


I hope you weren't up all night, but McDonald's has good morning coffee! :)

I turn my TV each night to Soundscapes on Music Choice on Charter Digital Cable. It puts me right out. Like having a lullaby.

Sleep

Postby Pastor Gary » August 21st, 2008, 6:18 am

I seldom have ever had that problem... I lay down, close my eyes and sleep begins within one or two minutes. :shock:

Count me in on the quick-to-sleep crowd. Seems like I had some trouble when I was younger and read that you move the television out of the bedroom and train your body to know that it's time to go to bed.

My main trouble on getting to sleep is to stop, and get in the bed. If I can find the time to get there the next problem is that awful buzzing noise that starts early in the morning.

When I can't sleep, I pray, or read or get up and turn on the computor, think on scriptures memorized. Remind myself that "the Lord is My shepherd."

Don't have that problem too often.

Getting up at a regular time each day and going to bed at a regular time at night helps. It regulates the body clock.

Then working my butt off during the day makes me ready for some sleep...

I usually just lie down, get cozy under the covers, and close my eyes. Sleep can be difficult while occupying yourself with other things.
