Bad Sleep and the Power of Forgiveness
There's plenty of research to support what common sense would tell you: it's not good for your sleep - and your health - to carry around hatred, anger, blame, resentment, shame, guilt, and chronic disappointment. It is an essential part of your personal development to get rid of any negative emotions, feelings and thoughts.
7. Hatred and Sleep
In conducting studies on sleep and the causes of sleeplessness, it has been noted that one with a heart of hatred never sleeps as well as the one whose mind is at peace with himself and the world at large. The former has difficulty in going to sleep and when he does, he is tense and rests but little.
Solution: Hatred is a poison which works on both your mind and body. If you could realize the damage which is done by hating, you would know that you cannot afford to hate.
Remember! Hatred never harms the one hated. The hater is the one who pays the penalty.
And, does hatred keep one awake?
On one occasion a person did something toward me which literally "burned me up." I went to bed and for two or three hours kept myself awake just by dwelling on the action which brought about the hatred. After singing on this "hymn of hate" for a good portion of the night, I understood that I was harming no one but myself. I even asked myself the question: "Wouldn’t that fellow be glad if he knew he was keeping me awake?"
In other words, I was really allowing him to bestow more injury upon me. Knowing the futility of lying awake— just hating— I actually whispered a prayer asking that he be blessed and guided to do right by his fellow man. This act dissolved my hatred. I dropped off to restful sleep and woke up in the morning actually sympathizing with this man instead of hating him.
I have integrated into my daily life two powerful programs, which make it so easy to let go of any bad, restrictive and limiting emotions.
The first one is a release technique, which relies on your innate natural ability to let go of any negative feelings, thoughts and emotions on the spot. You will increasingly become aware of this ability in yourself and in this way become the master of your life. In an instant you'll start to experience a new quality of freedom that you never want to miss again. You can check it out here...
The second one is EFT, a technique that uses - among other things - the tapping of different energy spots on your body to effectively help you release any negative emotions in your mind and the accompanying tension in your body. Additional simple yet effective processes aid the integration of both hemispheres of the brain, which is so essential for lasting positive changes. You can download your free EFT manual here...
Improve Your Sleep Through Forgiveness
In his book The Science of Being Well, the author Wallace Wattles makes a powerful statement about the importance of letting go any resentment and resistance against what is:
"The person who is in conscious harmony with All will receive a continuous inflow of vital power from the Supreme Life, and this inflow is prevented by angry, selfish, or antagonistic mental attitudes. If you are against any part, you have severed relations with all - you will receive life, but only instinctively and automatically, not intelligently and purposefully."

It's clear that you can't be connected with the power that heals if you are "against any part" of the whole. That includes being against anyone else, yourself, your body, or parts of your body.
So what do you do with all those feelings? How can you get rid of them so you can have sound sleep and health?
It's all about forgiveness - which may not be what you think. Through forgiveness we learn the art of allowing everyone else to be the way he or she wants to be. This will feel like putting down a heavy burden that we have carried around for decades.
We will feel so much more free, lighthearted and alive, once we are relieved of this unbearable pressure! Now we can cultivate the art of being happy despite so many seemingly adverse circumstances. And by the law of attraction being happy is the most effective way to dissolve these negative circumstances!
This program is one you'll find yourself listening to over and over again, as you give yourself permission to let go of what you've been dragging around to the detriment of yourself and everyone else.
Enjoy, be happy and sleep well!
