Count Blessings, Not Sheep
Worried? Can't sleep? ".... just count your blessings instead of sheep, and you'll fall asleep, counting your blessings." Bing Crosby
When you can't sleep because you're worried, don't sleep on it. Get out of bed, write down what you are worried about, put it away for tomorrow and say good-night to your worries.
As your head hits the pillow, instead of counting sheep, start counting your blessings.... experiences, events, people, things.... Count your blessings, and soon appreciation and contentment will emerge. This will help you to relax into sleep.
