I found myself awake at 5.30am and miraculously, remembered that it's International Dawn Chorus Day. I stuck my head out the window for a while and had a listen.

It seemed quite muted and distant compared with 20 years ago, but there were still quite a few different birds singing.

I'm not great at identifying them by their songs but there were robins, blackbirds, crows and wood pigeons in there, plus, more intriguingly, something I hadn't heard much before.

One problem was that because there was so little other noise at that time of day, when a 'plane went by, the din it made was huge and seemed almost endless.

Good luck sleeping, insomniacs. If ever I can't sleep, I find reading a book helps me drift off.

Sorry to hear about your insomnia 😞. Is your severe facet joint degeneration affecting your sleep?

Hope your issues soon go away!

Thanks.

The back pain isn't directly affecting my sleep patterns. I just don't seem to be bale to get comfortable to drop off for a long sleep. I sleep in stages in a 24 hr period.

I was going to recommend this! Be warned, it's a data storage killer, remember to delete any of the recordings you don't need, but it's awesome.

Try a yoga nidra mediation. I'm asleep before she's finished introducing herself normally.

That was me last night at various intervals, seems I must have eaten something that didn't agree with me

Feeling knackered this morning and not helped by finding a flat tyre on the car first thing so had to get that sorted as well

Well chef, maybe it wasn't necessarily what you ate, but how you cooked it!!

I used to have this fantastic half hour/45 min Yoga Nidra track. A girl with a lovely breathy voice would guide me in the dark through my headphones from head to toe helping me relax. Very ASMR. I’d usually be blissed and out of it well before she’d finished. Trouble is I was listening to it on SoundCloud or something similar and a mate had recently sent me a few old tracks he’d made when he was in a thrash band. So when the Yoga Nidra track finished leaving me already in an unconscious nirvana the next track played alphabetically was ‘You Cu.nt’ which began with my mate shouting you cu.nt! followed by typical ear-splitting guitar chords and drums which would send me into a severe state of shock and panic. I’d be literally yelling in the dark. Took me at least 4 midnight panic attacks before I finally sorted it out.
