Mental health, starting with (good) sleep # 2

Turn off the lights immediately...Brain wakes up! Who has a "naughty monkey" running in his head at sleep?

"Did you forget to lock the house?"

"What time is the meeting tomorrow?"

"Why did I say that then?!"

When the head reaches the pillow..These things always pop up!

This symptom is psychologically (and Buddhist) called

"Monkey Mind" or "ape mind."

Our brain is like a monkey that refuses to remain still.

Like jumping from one story to another.

The more we try to sleep...The more the monkey hits the cymbal loudly!

How to make the monkey stop being naughty?

Mimi suggested the "Brain Dump" method. 📝

Get up and write down "all matters of concern" in the paper quickly.

It's like telling the monkey, "Okay, I know. Write it down.

Clear it tomorrow. Now let me sleep. "

When he knows that we do not forget...It will stop dancing.

And let us sleep.

Tonight, try to catch a monkey in paper so you can sleep well. 💤

Goodnight, everyone!

... Read moreหลายครั้งที่เรานอนไม่หลับเพียงเพราะสมองยังคงคิดวนอยู่ไม่หยุด หรือที่เรียกว่า "จิตวานร" (Monkey Mind) ซึ่งเป็นภาวะที่จิตใจของเราคล้ายกับลิงที่กระโดดไปมาระหว่างความคิดหลายเรื่องในเวลาเดียวกัน เหตุการณ์เล็กๆ ที่เกิดขึ้นในชีวิตประจำวันถูกขยายจนกลายเป็นความกังวลและความเครียด ส่งผลให้ร่างกายหลั่งฮอร์โมนความเครียดและทำให้นอนไม่หลับอย่างที่หลายคนเคยประสบ ในฐานะคนที่เคยประสบปัญหานอนไม่หลับเพราะจิตใจวุ่นวายเช่นนี้ ผมพบว่าวิธีที่ได้ผลมากคือการใช้เทคนิค "Brain Dump" โดยการลุกขึ้นมาจดทุกความคิด ความกังวล หรือเรื่องที่ต้องทำไว้บนกระดาษอย่างรวดเร็ว ก่อนที่จะกลับไปนอน วิธีนี้ช่วยเหมือนการบอกกับสมองว่าเรื่องเหล่านี้ไม่ได้ถูกลืม เพียงแค่จะไปจัดการในเวลาที่เหมาะสม ไม่ใช่เวลานอน นอกจากการจดบันทึกแล้ว ผมยังแนะนำให้ลองผ่อนคลายร่างกายและจิตใจด้วยกิจกรรมก่อนนอน เช่น ดื่มน้ำอุ่น อ่านหนังสือเบาๆ หรือทำสมาธิแบบง่ายๆ เพื่อเตรียมสมองให้พร้อมสำหรับการพักผ่อนอย่างแท้จริง สิ่งเหล่านี้ช่วยลดเสียงในหัวให้เงียบลง และทำให้จิตใจสงบมากขึ้น ทำให้สามารถเอาชนะ "เสียงลิง" ในสมองได้ในที่สุด ท้ายที่สุด การเอาชนะจิตวานรไม่ได้หมายความว่าจะต้องห้ามไม่คิดอะไรเลยในตอนกลางคืน แต่เป็นการเรียนรู้วิธีจัดการกับความคิดเหล่านั้นอย่างมีประสิทธิภาพ เพื่อให้เราสามารถนอนหลับได้อย่างสมบูรณ์และฟื้นฟูสุขภาพจิตของเราได้อย่างแท้จริง ลองใช้เทคนิคเหล่านี้ดู แล้วคุณจะพบว่าคืนที่นอนไม่หลับจะค่อยๆ หายไป และส่งผลดีต่อสุขภาพจิตในระยะยาวด้วยครับ
