Lack of Sleep - a podcast by Gav
from 2022-11-02T17:24:19
Insomnia and broken nights sleep doesn't really bother me anymore and I'll tell you why in this video.
Exhaustion is very helpful for the ego. If you're doing any kind of inner work being overtired I have found very helpful, it slows the mind down which gives us more space to work through what is being released. I have countless experiences of working through stuff in the middle of the night. Or days before holotropic breathwork or ayahuasca I would often be unable to sleep and arrive absolutely exhausted. The exhaustion was always really beneficial to allow a release and roll back the activity of the mind.
The main problem is this:
People want to develop spiritually, heal etc. Their ego has a preconceived idea of what this healing and growth will look like. When the ego begins to be broken down (sleeplessness for example), the ego becomes defensive and obviously does not recognise the benefit of what is unfolding so tries to fight it.
Simply a change in perception, seeing the insomnia as an opportunity provided me the insight to work in these times, and they have been some of the most productive for me to heal and release. Many times simply by sitting up and meditating and allowing whatever release to occur, I would fall back asleep straight after.
Have a listen and let me know what you think.
