Thinking of yourself as an insomniac may be a part of the problem
This is exactly the Zen moment that fixed my lifelong insomnia: lying in bed relaxed with my eyes closed, even if I&#x27;m not asleep, leaves me feeling worlds better in the morning than fretting about not being able to sleep. It&#x27;s something that happened when I forgot about it completely. Once I realized I could literally just lie in bed for 8 hours and be OK, I was able to let go.<p>It&#x27;s like a trap that closes tighter about you the more you struggle, and releases if you allow yourself to relax<p>Once I really got that, sleep became regular and uninterrupted
