Overcoming Overthinking: Acupuncture for a Better Night’s Rest

How often do you over-think things?

Do you struggle to switch off and quieten your mind? Have sleepless nights with your mind running away with itself?

Then read on……

The client that sent me the statement below ⬇️ has been coming to me for a few years. But, the journey leading to this is very recent.

I completed my Auricular Acupuncture training at Jennifer Young Training School. I needed to finish case studies for the Emotional Wellbeing and Neurodivergence elements.

After a detailed consultation it was decided which points would be needled according to my clients desired outcomes. Two big factors were sleep and a quiet mind…..

And from just the first session we saw BIG CHANGES!! 😍

My client tracks her sleep on her watch. She has never managed to get restfulness out of the red and into the blue. BUT it happened!! What’s even better is this has continued and gone higher, recently hitting 97%, how good is that! Plus mental recovery and physical recovery have increased too, with a steady increase in sleep times 😴 . We have identified a slight blip at the weekends, BUT we know this is when alcohol comes into play.

After seeing the results from Auricular Acupuncture sessions, my client noticed that I was doing training appointments for Shen Men piercings. This was part of my VNS Daith work. After having a chat about how I have benefited from the piercings, she decided to go for it.

I saw my client last Friday. It was just over a week after her shen men piercing. When I asked her how she was, I got a definite ‘I’m feeling good!’ followed by what you see above!! 👆🏻👆🏻

This lady’s journey is one I am so happy and proud to have been part of. The progress she has made since starting having regular holistic and complementary therapies has been amazing!!
