Sometimes you just can’t fall asleep and often the solution lies in everyday things.
...A youthful older lady tells me that she can’t sleep because of the pain in her shoulder. During the day, she can do everything with the shoulder and it doesn’t bother her at all. At rest, it’s a different story. This is a sign of stagnation. But the afternoon nap she takes on the couch bothers her much less than when she sleeps in her bed. As an experiment, I ask her to take the cushion she uses on the couch to bed. And truly, I get a relieved text from her saying that her shoulder is much less painful.
It’s always useful to tackle undermining factors during treatment as well.
