When Bed Starts to Feel Like Work

24 min

Bed can become charged with wakefulness when too many nights have been spent trying to sleep there. Day eight names that pattern without blame: the body has paired the pillow with alertness, not failure. From a neutral chair or sofa, the practice is simply to feel what is holding you now, then later notice what changes when your head meets the pillow.
