Difficulty falling asleep or waking up frequently or early. It usually negatively affects the performance of the affected in their daily life.
The sense of suffering this symptom is to remain on alert due to an unresolved danger (often at the mental level).
Conflict of the controller and the perfectionist. Fear of losing control of a situation.
The impossibility of sleeping expresses a deep fear of loss of control, of abandoning oneself.
"When I lose control danger comes".
"I have to control everything".
Persistent daily insomnia expresses a severe lack of confidence; when we have little faith in life, when we lack confidence and try to keep everything controlled, directed, verified and mastered and we do not know how to delegate to others, the thought never stops and makes the person wakes up frequently during the night.
Conflict of urgent need to guard and defend the clan. Who are we watching?
Examples: A person who is alone and is afraid that something will happen to him. "I run the risk of hurting myself or something terrible happens to me while I sleep".
A lady who has the responsibility of caring for a physically and psychologically diminished family member and has to be constantly watching over her.
Conflict and need to watch over a dead person.
When insomnia begins at a very young age, we must review the environment that the child lives at home, if his parents fight, argue or if he has suffered some abuse, preferably at night and the child is watching because he is very afraid. "I am on alert because something is going to happen".
We must also review the genealogical tree, because there may be a command to "watch over the dead", real or symbolic.
Watching for a dead person may actually be because there was one dead in the family who could not watch over or mourn.
The "dead" can also be the altercation of today in the work, the discussion with my partner, the problems of our son, etc.
Conflict of fear, guilt, anguish, negative thoughts, surrender ... Nervous depression concealed or patent. Insomnia can be strongly related to conscious or unconscious guilt.
For one reason or another, we may have the feeling that "we do not deserve to rest".
Maybe because we feel guilty about not being successful in life, not doing everything we need to take care of our children, our parents, etc.
Conflict and difficulty making decisions. I do not accept things as they are and I need to change them, act now, without delay. In this case the mental process is activated and prevents rest.
If we do not find the source of the conflict, we can hardly command our mind to stop, so we must find our negative thoughts and solve them (during the day) and with that satisfaction go to bed.
Conflict of fear of death. During sleep we are in a state of vulnerability and abandonment; we feel as if our ego and our survival are threatened.
The person who is afraid of death will also be afraid of the night, since sleep is the younger brother of death, forcing us to abandon ourselves to the unknown.
Recommendations for restoring physical, emotional and spiritual health:
Are you one of those who believe that the night will bring you the solution to your problems and you can not sleep until you find it?
We cannot turn the bed into a place of conflict resolution, for we will accustom our minds to being alert to it instead of resting.
Better stop thinking and sleep.
Things look different when we are relaxed.
Who suffers from insomnia should learn to release the pressure, to abandon, to relax.
You should practice surrender, get rid of perfectionism, let go through life, accepting that you cannot control everything and deepen the sense of trust in life and meditate on death.
We can be helpful to move from the active side of the mind (male) to passive (female), practicing a ritual goodnight, prayer, meditation, mantras, observation of breathing, listening to relaxing music , etc.
If you suffer from insomnia because of you could not say goodbye to a loved one who has died, it is necessary to hold a symbolic duel.
