Hello
I have the same problem. I have also been tested. I also sit propped up to sleep at times. I do shift my position when I sleep which makes things worse. The major part of my problem is from acute stress. I am a survivor of childhood trauma and still have symptoms of PTSD. At times I can still become overwhelmed easily and find myself repressing the stress in order to deal with it. One can only do that up to a certain point and then there is a problem with sleeping. It can be very scary to wake up having trouble breathing. I empathize with you totally . I have been investigating Mindfulness. I tried regular Meditation. Mindfulness works better for me. I try to use it during the day to defuse the stress. Like anything else you have to practice regularly. Make using Mindfulness part of your lifestyle. I am a Professional Energy Healer. (The "Wounded Healer" as the saying goes 🙂
I am combining Reiki Self-Care with Mindfulness. However you choose to deal with the stress you should try to be consistent.
Many Blessings to You.
Hi Val
Our general state of health and wellbeing is a direct reflection of our underlying state of consciousness, emotions are an electro chemical response that our brain sets up within our physical body in response to what is going on within our non-physical aspects of consciousness; emotions are always being created within the now or current moment of time, we can remember something we have experienced and our brain will respond to these thoughts and create the feelings right now, but feelings are not stored they have to be triggered by a thought that is interpreted by the brain, that can be a thought that we are aware of or one that we were not happy with so we are still currently repressing and refusing to acknowledge it, we call these judgemental ties of consciousness.
We resolve a problem within consciousness through self acceptance or we can create a problem through self rejection, mindfulness will help as long as you are allowing the underlying thoughts to come into focus and you are embracing and accepting them (they are your thoughts after all) which is what mindfulness is (to become mindfully aware of self), if you push them aside like most people are taught in meditation then that will not help you at all, the simple reality is that for as long as we choose to reject and battle self, we are currently creating an environment of disharmony and disease within consciousness that creates the environment that our general state of health and wellbeing to reflect within our body and life experience.
Rather than focusing upon the emotions that are arising as symptoms of what is going on within your aspects of consciousness, ask yourself 'what is the problem within consciousness that is currently creating these feelings' and stop and wait for clarification or insight, you already know some of the answers but you have to deal with them by embracing and accepting them, not just acknowledging them, acceptance = harmony and wholeness, rejection = divisional conflict and disease, the choice is yours to make. 😉

Hello Taylor,

My friend has Nasopharyngeal, he is worried about the air pollution. To ensure a safe and clean living environment against infection, he bought an air sanitizer which effectively destroys Viruses, Bacteria and Volatile Organic Compounds. He is happy that the indoor air quality become more cleaner and fresher than ever before and he can sleep well now.
