EPISODE TAKEAWAYS:
Top 5 ways to free yourself of night terrors and create space for restful, peaceful sleep:
1. Create a Calming Bedtime Routine
A consistent, relaxing bedtime routine helps signal your body that it's time to wind down and prepare for sleep. Incorporate calming activities such as:
Meditation or deep breathing exercises
Reading or listening to soothing music
Gentle stretches or yoga
Avoiding screens (phones, TV) at least 30 minutes before bed. This routine can help reduce anxiety and promote a sense of safety before sleep.
2. Address Underlying Stress or Anxiety
Night terrors are often linked to unresolved stress or anxiety. Take proactive steps to manage daily stress:
Practice mindfulness or journaling to process emotions
Seek therapy or counseling if the source of anxiety is deeper
Consider relaxation techniques like progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) or guided imagery. Managing daytime stress can help reduce its impact on your dreams and sleep.
3. Create a Safe Sleep Environment
Transform your bedroom into a sanctuary for relaxation:
Use soft, comfortable bedding and pillows
Ensure the room is dark (consider blackout curtains) and cool (around 65°F/18°C is ideal for sleep)
Introduce comforting sounds like a white noise machine, or calming nature sounds
Add a nightlight if fear of the dark is contributing to anxiety. A safe, calming environment can make a significant difference in reducing the occurrence of night terrors.
4. Practice Mindful Visualization Before Sleep
Visualization techniques can calm the mind and create a sense of control. Before bed:
Picture a peaceful scene (like a beach or forest) and imagine yourself in that environment
Focus on positive and comforting thoughts, such as imagining a safe, loving presence with you while you sleep
Practice gratitude by thinking about three positive things that happened during your day Positive imagery can help reframe your mind away from fear and nightmares.
5. Consider Sleep-Enhancing Supplements (With Caution) [please talk to your medical professional about this FIRST]
Some natural supplements may help promote a restful night’s sleep. Common options include:
Melatonin to regulate sleep cycles (but only under guidance)
Lavender oil (used in aromatherapy or in a diffuser) to help calm anxiety
Magnesium supplements (helpful for muscle relaxation and calming the nervous system) Always check with a healthcare provider before introducing supplements, especially if you’re already on medication or have underlying health conditions.
By combining these methods, you can gradually reduce night terrors and create a peaceful, restorative sleep environment.
