Magical time out in the evening: “Bedtime whispers for the soul” helps you sleep well and gain new self-confidence
The successor to the international success title "Coffee Self-Talk" complements the daily ritual of positive self-talk. At the end of the day, "Pillow Self-Talk" - the " pillow talk for the soul " by bestselling author Kristen Helmstetter - not only provides relaxation, but also the energy to change your life.
The power of positive emotions
"I use self-talk to stay healthy by boosting my immune system and reducing stress. I've increased my courage. I've become more confident. And I've even used these techniques to become a novelist." The American bestselling author Kristin Helmstetter says she leads a "dream life" since she started programming her mind for success and satisfaction with "self-talk" as a daily ritual. The German translation of her new book is dedicated to topics such as self-love, fulfillment, relationships, spirituality, health and happiness, which can be achieved as if in your sleep using a perfect evening routine.
“ Pillow talk for the soul ” is designed to use the power of uplifting emotions to make your dreams come true. Peace and relaxation ensure restful sleep and help to break negative thought patterns. This not only improves the quality of sleep, but also increases self-confidence and resilience, allowing you to get back on your feet immediately after a setback.
Good sleep is healthy
Good sleep strengthens the immune system, improves hormone function, accelerates healing and recovery, preserves DNA and is even said to help you reach your ideal weight. Sleep is therefore also the most efficient method of reducing excessive stress hormones. But according to current studies, every second or third adult in Germany and the USA does not get enough sleep.
Prioritizing sleep after an emotional day can get your brain working on solving problems while you slumber peacefully. There are countless anecdotes about scientists or artists who have had ideas for their theories or works appear in dreams. The mind is particularly receptive to suggestions and affirmations during the transition phase from waking to sleeping, the so-called "hypnagogic state of consciousness." "At bedtime," says Kristen Helmstetter, "we have the power to literally instruct our subconscious to work on our desires, dreams and creative breakthroughs..."
Self-talk for peace of mind
Before she started "Pillow Self-Talk," Kristen Helmstetter usually lay in bed at night and let her thoughts wander aimlessly about the day that lay behind her, or she was overly excited about the following day. So many thoughts were buzzing around in her head and so many things occurred to her. But that kept her brain waves in the beta range with analysis and planning, when they should be in the alpha range for relaxation before falling asleep.
Positive self-talk before bedtime, on the other hand, helps you process the day. "If you've had a busy or hectic day, your self-talk will help your mind to relax so you don't dwell on it any more. You'll find peace of mind. And that will ensure a night of restful sleep, which will strengthen resilience." This resilience empowers and gives you the feeling of being strong, alive and ready for anything. It increases your willingness to try new things. Because if you change your thoughts, you also change your view of reality.
