a large part of my insomnia is that whenever i lay in bed all the issues that are affecting mr seem to creep up and i spend the next 8 hours panicking about things that are out of my control, or that i just havent done. maybe i should stop procrastinating then i wouldnt have so much un-finished business to worry about…or i could just take pills (that would probably be easier(and more achievable!!))
Texas Lin Lightening Up for 2010
One time when I was having a very difficult time sleeping a dear friend gave me this suggestion.
It seemed I worried all the time about shoulda,woulda,coulda stuff that I have absolutely no control over.
He made me a beautiful light pine box with a lock and key.
He told me every night before I go to bed to write whatever was bothering me on a slip of paper and put it in the box for God to handle.
He insisted I lock the box each evening so I wouldn’t be tempted to take the problem back from God.
Magically it works! I still use my God box today and sleep like a baby.
(No pills required)
