It’s very common to experience business owner insomnia, stress and anxiety.
Running a small business can be stressful, when you feel responsible for all aspects and all of the various things that can go wrong are all weighing heavily on you.
These days, although I’m still running my own business, I have a much better awareness of the impact of stress on the body and how to handle it.
It’s incredibly important as a small business owner to recognise that you are the main asset of the business. You HAVE to look after yourself first otherwise frankly there is no business. 💯
It’s not just the day to day stress that needs to be managed, but also your own thoughts and mental health, and self sabotage that comes out of nowhere to de-rail everything that you have worked so hard for.
You could use guided meditation or relaxation recordings (you can download my free deep relaxation audio in my blog) to help you drift to sleep and the benefit of this is that it also trains your mind to get used to relaxing and sleeping.
Our minds love habit and repetition, and you’ll find the more that you do this, the easier it gets.
