Doctor shares easy trick to fall asleep at 3am
He said, “It’s called cognitive shuffling, and the idea is it interrupts your racing mind, and instead scrambles your thoughts, inviting your brain to go into sleep mode, and assuring it that it is safe to sleep.”
So how do you successfully do ‘cognitive shuffling.’ First, you think of a random word and focus on the first letter of the word. After that, you mentally name a list of words that start with the same letter.
After that, you will want to visualize each phrase before you move on to the second letter of your chosen word, and after that, you merely repeat the steps again and again till it helps you go back to sleep!
