Night One: Failure

Lately, I’ve been having lots of trouble sleeping. I get to sleep no worries, but without fail I wake sometime between 4am and 4:30am. Then, I toss and turn until it’s time to get up a few hours later. I have never had trouble sleeping before, so this is rather unusual for me.

I decided that I’d report my woes to my naturopath to see what she prescribed. She says that according to some Chinese chart of sleep, 4am – 5am is when your lungs are being “recharged”, so my trouble is probably respiritory. Hence, she has given me a whole bunch of medicines to clear up the air ways and help regulate breathing. I’m seeing her again in 2 weeks, to find out if the treatment has worked.

Night one was a disasterous failure. As usual, I woke up at 4:10am, after dreaming that Kristy would be changing her name to “Kristy Ballynde Jean Thomas” after we were married. Fingers crossed I’ll have more success tonight.
