Speak in Tongues for Better Sleep

http://innerself.com/Meditation/weekly/sleep.htm

This gem comes from Osho, a popular spiritual teacher. Glossolalia, or speaking in tongues, was a New Testament practice (not Old Testament as Osho says) that I believe is often mistakenly interpreted to mean speaking gibberish instead of just speaking in a second language (maybe I will provide a link for this later.) The making-up-words-and-sounds practice has been proscribed mainly as a means of prayer, and sometimes as an ecstasy-inducer. But I had never heard of this novel use, to help you sleep better and deeper. If you are having difficulties with your sleep, maybe you could add this to your bag of sleep-tricks.
