For months, I struggled with sleepless nights, my mind racing while my body craved rest. Being a single mom with two young kids, sleep seemed like a distant memory. I tried everything—meditation, herbal teas, and more—but nothing helped.
One night, while browsing Reddit, I found unexpected advice. One user shared, “The trick is a clean conscience. I just stop thinking.” Another suggested training the mind to stop inner monologues and focusing on feelings instead of thoughts.
I decided to create a calming sleep ritual, imagining a peaceful garden where I could relax. “Everything is okay, you’re safe here,” I whispered to myself, and surprisingly, I drifted off.
The next morning, I felt rested for the first time in months. My kids cheered, “Go, Mommy!” That night’s sleep felt like the start of a new chapter. I had found my secret—a sanctuary in my mind where peace and sleep finally found me.
