The sleeping playlist.

The last time I went to see my doctor, I told him I couldn’t sleep, I had to take all the sleeping pills he gave to me, which were limited. After the meeting he gave me more than enough but he told me try to avoid using them because I might develop an addiction towards them.

Well, I tried.

Some nights, it took me hours to sleep because only God knows what was in my mind and there were nights when I woke up several time in the middle of the night.

Scared to say, I am becoming to be dependent towards those tiny pills.

And this is the last thing that I want [well one of them anyway].

 

I was told by someone, perhaps I should have a playlist for sleeping.

So I began to look for ‘peaceful’ songs like the sounds of the ocean or the sound of rain but it didn’t work for me. When I heard the ocean sound I got reminded of some memory that I do not want to remember as well as the rain drop sounds.

 

But few nights ago, I discover a song that completely put my mind to ease and soon after that I fall asleep. I did woke up several times but there were no crying dreams nor the weird ones.

 

It is from Sebastien Schuller – Sleeping Song

And then I thought perhaps I could look for some more songs that help me to sleep.

So far these are the songs that I managed to find.

 

>Natalie Merchant – Ophelia

>Sébastien Schuller – Le dernier jour

>Moby – Everloving

>Tycho – Dream As Memory

>Jack Johnson – To The Sea

That’s all I got, still looking for some. If you know any soothing and calming songs [but not instrumental or sounds of nature] do let me know.

 

Oh, btw, I also have a wake-up song. For the moment no playlist, just one particular song.

This is so beautiful and mystical to me. Uplifting as well.

 

Perfect to start any day.

 

Anyway, if you are wondering, most of the songs I downloaded from http://prostopleer.com. Good source after Ares fails to do its job.

 

Ok, so if you have any good song to put me to sleep [temporarily haha] do let me know okies.

Tata!
