Y., METHOD OF INDUCING SLEEP Self-Suggestion Plays a Great Part Worry Is the Main Thing to Be Avoided. The next point to bear in mind ts , that self-suggestion plays a great part in the production of sleep, writes Dr. 8. McComb in Harper’s Bazar. Ord narfly we do not sleep by accident or haphazard. We resolve to sleep We go through a variety of actions all suggestive of a change from our nor mal waking condition. We undress, we place ourselves in a ¢omfortable position, we close our eyes. We be Meve and expect that we are going te sleep, and the result is—sleep. One of the great preventatives of sleep is ‘the fear of not sleeping. Once this fear is broken down, we sleep. The | Insomniac worries about his insomnia, and this very worry deepens the mis sehief.. Hence the sufferer should sug- gest to himself.again and again: “If I sleep, well; if I don’t sleep I will at least gain rest by keeping my mind: ‘ealm and my body relaxed.” In-a word, our chances of getting sleep in- crease ‘ff we assume the external physical attitude which corresponds to: sleep,-if we relax every muscle and let it stay relaxed, if we breathe light- | ly and regularly, if we call up the imaginations of a sleeping person, and ‘talk and think sleep to ourselves, re! ‘peating silently and in a quiet dreamy _ fashion such a ‘formula as_ this: “There ‘is no'reason why I should not_ ‘sleep.
