I have never slept well. It started as a child, where I could never sleep as my brother constantly threatened me with a knife and used to stand in my bedroom doorway - the door was always open as it couldn't be closed. Apart from this, the house was haunted and I was always terrified. This has continued into adulthood - I'm 65 now and still can't sleep and feel as if I'm dying. Wherever I live I have to leave a small light on, the bedroom door must be locked and preferably bolted or even heavy furniture against the door. I keep the World Service on all night to keep me company, but the anxiety and terror remains. My body is in constant pain and I suffer from bad mental health... I'm so fed up of it now. I would love to find a therapist. I already had PTSD therapy, which never helped. No sprays or oils work. I can't take sleeping tablets forever and anyhow, my GP won't prescribe them, yet will happily dole out antidepressants, which I won''t take. Any ideas? TIA
I think I really like what this lady is saying, but I feel like its really more soothing than the rubbing your arms up and down and the tapping, I like to just hold my arms there. That might be the most comforting way. But this lady is also wise.
Really really enjoyed that thanks so much. This lady is fantastic wd lv to c her on here again. Thanks you I've learnt so much.
Thanks for this fantastic video ....I've found it really interesting and helpful.
This was so informative. I love the combination of neuroscience and somatics. Thank you.

Thank you! Great advice that I’ll be trying out.
Autogenic training is a great way to have a body scan & relax.

Does the book cover inner safety within intimate relationships?
Why does my husband sleep from the minute he goes to bed through to morning while I'm waking up many times a night? It's very frustrating 😢
Actually we all sleep in cycles and wake up multiple times during the night. Mostly we dont remember it because we only wake briefly
