Living as One in Difficult Times

Suggestions for Insomnia

A man who struggles with insomnia asks for suggestions about how to deal with it. Rupert responds that lack of sleep is detrimental to your body and your mind, but does not affect awareness, your true being. He makes a distinction between clarity of perception and clarity of awareness using the analogy of looking through a dirty window. Seeing is not affected, but what is seen is distorted. Yoga meditations may or may not help depending on whether the origin of the insomnia is with the mind or in body. They might help if it arises in the body, but may not if it's a disturbance in the mind.
