When I’m on a crowded train with nothing to hold onto, I plant my feet firmly and try to grip the ground with my toes, which helps me stay steady. Terakado Jimon mentioned this technique a long time ago, and I’ve been doing it ever since.
As I’ve gotten older, my sleep has become lighter, and I was waking up multiple times during the night, struggling to fall back asleep. I tried something called ‘mindfulness sleep,’ and it helped me fall asleep quickly and stay asleep until morning. There are various methods if you search online, but the approach that worked for me is: ・Lying in my favorite position ・Mentally listing all the things my body is touching ・Taking deep breaths while listing them I usually fall asleep in about five minutes.
