Insomnia - Meditation Machines can help improve sleep

netspotaudio.com Vuer

Sleep trouble is increasingly becoming a problem in our high-stress, fast-paced world.

Often when we go to bed, our minds are racing with thoughts and we find it impossible to stop our mental chatter – that internal dialogue that goes on inside our heads and can overwhelm our ability to get a good night’s rest

You might have one or more of the following :

Difficulty falling asleep
Waking up often during the night and having trouble getting back to sleep
Waking up too early in the morning
Unrefreshing sleep

Featured our Meditation Machines in their Health Section , 28th August, 2007. This is what they said :

"Before he got his MindSpa, Stephen Anderson, an electrical engineer from Lancashire, was desperate. For years he had suffered severe insomnia, until he came across Meditations-UK on the internet. "I wasn't expecting miracles," says Anderson. "I thought maybe there'd be a slight improvement over three or four months."

On the day it arrived, Anderson, 43, gave it a trial run. An hour later he woke up. "I never even catnap!" he says. Anderson has been using the Meditation Machine for six weeks now. "I've slept every night and can even lie in at weekends. And where I used to hit a brick wall at work, I can now reach solutions much more clearly."

Over time, lack of sleep can have a very debilitating effect on your physical and psychological health. Often it can lead to feelings of irritability and this can have devastating effects on relationships at home and at work. Constant tiredness can affect your performance at work and you may experience difficulty in concentration and focusing on tasks.

"Since using my Meditation Machine, my sleep has been a lot deeper and I can function during the day much better as I'm not constantly tired"

Meditation relieves insomnia

Intrusive thoughts and increased muscle tension can interfere with your sleep. It's not surprising, therefore, that practicing meditation, with its effects of quieting your mind and relaxing your body, has been found to be an effective treatment for insomnia.

Recent research by Dr Gregg Jacobs at Harvard Medical School on the effects of meditation-based relaxation techniques has demonstrated the link between meditation and brain wave activity. >Read article

These findings suggest that insomniacs will find it easier to get to sleep if they practice meditation at bedtime or after awakening during the night. Dr. Greggs has said that "75% of long-term insomniacs who have been trained in relaxation and meditation can fall asleep within 20 minutes of going to bed.

"Over the years I have had problems sleeping; either falling asleep or waking up in the small hours and then unable to get back to sleep. This has been due to a number of reasons but stresses, over-tiredness, a cluttered mind which won't switch off have all contributed to my anxiety.

I have tried endless remedies, some of which have helped but I decided to try the Mindspa Meditation Machine and it has been absolutely brilliant.

I easily got into a routine of using it every night before I go to "sleep" and I find it calms my mind which relaxes my body and I drop off...BLISS If I do wake up during the night I just use it again and go straight back to sleep. I also enjoy the feeling of it relaxing me!

Knowing how much lack of sleep has pulled me down in the past and in fact how ageing that is, I only wish I had known about and bought a Meditation machine sooner. Seriously it's the best investment I can think of! "

Becoming calmer mentally and physically happens automatically
WIthin a short time, you'll meditate as deeply as a Zen monk

"I am writing to say that having purchased a MindSpa a couple of weeks ago, I have been amazed at how effective it has turned out to be.

This is in the context of extreme cynicism to begin with (I really didn't think it would work and still don't know how it does) and the fact that the first 2 - 3 sessions left me feeling more tense than usual as I struggled to adapt to the unusual lights and sounds.

Since then the results have been nothing short of amazing. I have NEVER jumped out of bed, having slept deeply, full of energy in my life but do now! I would be happy for you to use this communication as a testimonial but would prefer that you used my initials only"

"My sleeping patterns do seem to have improved. This was the main reason I bought the Mindspa, I was having difficulties sleeping.

I had put it down to my age, 52, but I do seem to be getting a better quality of sleep.My problem was a very active brain which wanted to think of all sorts of things as soon as I laid down in bed. Now I seem to get off to sleep quite quickly."
