slowing down, indulging in wished moments, trying to find a way to get myself into a calm sleep state.
tonight, my eyes are closing themselves.

💤the closest i get to consciously experiencing sleep. bonus points if you’re way past when you know you should have gone to bed, you finally do, your eyelids are heavy, then you lay down and every sleep position imaginable is somehow perfectly comfortable. *chefs kiss*

⭐Up until recently, I’ve always struggled with winding down & being extremely intentional about actively deciding to go to sleep.
I used to take a lot of pride in being able to just stay up for as long as possible while being able to run on little to no sleep, so sleep was very much something I saw as a product of pure exhaustion – to sleep only when I’m truly exhausted and have done everything that needed to get done!
As soon as I turned 25, my body felt like it took a screenshot & it all caught up with me. Now I am the World’s Sleepiest Coziest Girl and I look very forward to getting in my pajamas, hitting the melatonin, turning on my sound machine and having the most insane dreams imaginable 🫶🏾 (Bonus points if I remember to make myself a cup of tea beforehand)
The ritual of getting ready for bed is honestly still something I’m trying to get better at – less screentime, more leisure – but that’s a mission for another day. Until then, GOOD NIGHT ❤️

💤idk if any of these will work for you bc tbh, i'm a bit blesssed in the sleep dpt. i usually dont have problems but here's some things i'll do if i am not drifting quickly.
The "Full Body" - start at your toes and completely relax them. Work your way up from toes to the tip of your head (I never make it all the way). You have to really be mindful about whether or not each body part is truly and fully relaxed.
The "Just Rest" - don't put any pressure on yourself to fall asleep. Remind yourself that even laying there, eyes closed, is rest and is good for your body.
The Day Dream - my usual method. Start to imagine a fun scenario. I mean really get into it and the details. I usually end up transitioning into a dream from here.

🌌today i dreamt of being chased around a house that felt familiar. i know this house appear in my dreams regularly but i have no idea whose house, why its there — if i ever see it while im awake, idk what i would do.
also, i guess it wasnt a dream and more of a nightmare
