Benefits of Meditation before sleep

Sleeping is my favourite activity. It is something I like to do the most.

It charges our body. Just like if we won't charge our mobile phone's or laptop's battery completely it won't work for the number of hours it should similarly we aren't able to function at our best if we won't sleep properly.

Unfortunately so many people around the globe aren't able to sleep properly at night. So many times we see some dreams. Sometimes good & bad.  Good dreams are fine but bad may disturb sleep sometimes & if one remembers it then he/she may not feel nice the next day as well.

To get a good night's sleep many people take medicines. Medicines may not be bad for many people but many get addicted to it after some months & without it they aren't able to sleep. After some years they've to increase its dose also.

In this post I'm sharing some benefits of meditation before going to sleep. If 1 meditates properly before sleep it dissolves entire day's tension or tensions & worries of tomorrow.

Every thought creates a circuit in our Central Nervous System. One is far from peace if that thought or thoughts are negative & thus circuit in Central Nervous System is negative. The negative thoughts i.e. negative circuits in Central Nervous System don't allow to sleep properly. Sometimes these negative thoughts i.e. Negative Circuits integrate so rapidly making one unable to sleep properly for many days.

Practicing meditation for 20 to 30 minutes before sleep dissolves negative thoughts & thus destroys negative circuit in Central Nervous System & helps us to get a good night sleep.

Meditation is simple. Just sit quietly in a good posture with straight back bone, close your eyes. Keep your hands & feet relaxed. If possible try Padmasana & just concentrate your breath. Don't cultivate any thoughts in your mind be it good thoughts. Also ignore any type of unnecessary sound or voice. Just concentrate your breath. You may find it difficult initially so you may keep some not heavy cloth material on your head like a folded bed-sheet. It enhances the meditation process.

Prayer is also a part of meditation. People who aren't good at meditation or can't meditate may even pray for 20 to 30 minutes. It helps to avoid bad or dangerous dreams while at sleep.

If done regularly it rejuvenates our body & soul. One will remain more energetic, enthusiastic & small situations won't irate us. Sleep also improves digestion process & if food properly gets digested then stomach upset problem becomes less.

1 will certainly find a lot of positive change if it’s practiced for atleast 1 month rigorously every night before sleep. If practiced every night then there is also a possibility of a decrease in intake of sleep medicines.
