珍妮·麦当娜对我说:当她心情沮丧、闷闷不乐而无法入睡时,便会重复《圣歌》第二十二章中的内容,以获得一种“安全感”
——“上帝是我们的牧师,我心无杂念。
他让我躺在绿色的牧地上,带领我来到幽静的溪流旁。”
如果你不信奉宗教,很难解决一些问题的话,你可以通过物理措施来进行放松。
大卫·哈罗·芬克博士曾经写过一本名叫《消除神经紧张》的书,上面说治疗失眠的最好方法就是与自己的身体交谈。
按照芬克所说,语言是所有催眠方法的关键,你一直不能入睡,是因为你对自己说得太多,患上了失眠症。
解决方法是你对着自己身上的肌肉说:“放松,放松——放松肌肉,放松。”
我们都知道,在我们睡觉时,如果肌肉处于紧张状态的话,思想和神经也得不到放松,因此我们先要放松肌肉。
芬克博士推荐的解决方法是:把一个枕头放在膝下,使所有的腿部肌肉得到放松,再在胳膊底下分别塞几个小枕头。
然后,放松下颚、眼睛、胳膊和腿,最后我们就不知不觉地进入了梦乡。
我曾经试过,很有效。
如果你很难入睡,可以看看芬克博士的书——《消除神经紧张》,我认为这是一本可读性强,并适合治疗失眠的书。
另外一种治疗失眠症的捷径是参加体育锻炼,比如,园艺活动、游泳、打网球、打高尔夫球、滑雪等等,或是做一些消耗体力的工作。
德莱塞就是这样做的。
当德莱塞还是一个正在奋斗的年轻作家时,他总是为了失眠而焦虑不安,便在纽约中央铁路公司找了一份切割工的工作。
经过一天的钉钉子和铲沙砾工作后,德莱塞感到极其疲惫,吃饭都很难坚持足够长的时间。
如果我们感到很疲惫,就算是在走路,也会入睡的。
