Days Dark as Night


We slept in a different way than we do now. The dark lasted about twelve hours and during this time people slept for eight or nine hours in two separate bouts, and were awake, but in the dark, for another three or four hours. Everything changed when electric lighting was invented in the latter part of the 19th century. Since then there has been an ever increasing assault on dark. Outdoor environments are relentlessly lit, and more and more people use computer tablets and smart phones at all hours, bathing their faces in bright blue light at times of day when they should be transitioning to nighttime physiology.

Top Authors

It can be heartbreaking and life-changing. This can include a loved one dying, an end to a relationship, losing a job, a change in health status, and so many other things. We endure countless losses throughout our lives. We as a society are so focused on being strong and getting on with life that we forget to sit in our pain for a bit and grieve.

So many of my clients are reluctant and sometimes apologetic when bringing up losses, as if this makes them weak. It makes you brave.

Profound grief is a level of hurt or despair we cannot put into words. We wonder if we will ever feel like ourselves again. Common responses to grief: Physical reactions—headaches, sleep and eating disturbances. Take it easy — Now is the time to lighten your load. Your mind and body need extra rest during this time.
