3. Breathe Out and Relax Your Chest:
With another deep breath and a slow exhale, let your chest relax and become heavy.
4. Relax Your Legs:
Starting from your thighs and working down to your lower legs and feet, let each part become heavy and sink into the bed.
5. Clear Your Mind:
For 10 seconds, try to clear your mind completely. A popular method for doing this is to envision yourself in a calm, peaceful setting. If that’s challenging, silently repeating “don’t think, don’t think, don’t think” for 10 seconds can also help.
6. Practice Makes Perfect:
Initially, it might take more than 2 minutes, but with regular practice, falling asleep within this short time frame becomes more achievable.
