I don't even try to tune it out.  Is that even possible??  I suggest letting yourself "buzz out of body."  When you do, the energy will simply "explode" and then let you go back to sleep (until it wakes you again!).  I usually do a number of spine stretches which help me to go back to sleep.  If that fails I'll take an aspirin.  Sometimes subtle aches will cause one to feel the energy more intensely. 

If that doesn't work I'll go over lists I've memorized.  Usually Tarot card interpretations.  Any list will do--lists of presidents, states, names beginning with alphabet letters, etc. Anything to distract the brain.  Sometimes I'll simply visualize "unscrewing" my head to stop thought patterns.  If all else fails, usually orgasm will serve as a soporific.  Sometimes when I go through a period of waking up and not being able to go back to sleep, I'll take melatonin for a short period of time.  That usually re-sets the sleep cycle for me, but it may not help younger people. 

I also keep a notepad by my bed in case there is a message to jot down. Sometimes I feel the energy is there just so we will notice it.  :))  Once impressions are written down the energy seems to ease somewhat.

The energy *has* been pretty high, but it was stronger for me the last week than this one.

Anyone else with sleep remedies?

Hi Everyone,
   I have found that Valerian works nicely to get a good nights sleep, but i think Melatonin is better.    Both supplements can be found at most stores.    The energy has been extremely high of late. Last night I had three buzzing head OBE's while trying to sleep. For me this is unheard of. I did do some intense yoga and meditaion before bed tho.

with my eyes closed, I try to look up as far as I can.
any one know why it works?

Here's one - I go back into a vision of the house I was a kid in, and walk up the driveway to the house, trying to walk through all the rooms. By the time I get to my bedroom (in back basement) I'm asleep. I guess I forget to stay awake... lol
