Free The Rabbit Who Wants To Fall Asleep: A New Way Of Getting Children To Sleep by Carl-Johan Forssén Ehrlin Page A

quicker than usual , whilst he was lying there thinking about falling asleep, now . He was lying there thinking about all the things that can make him tired now , all those things that usually would make him tired and sleepy, so tired and sleepy. All the playing, all the sleeping and all the other things that would cause him and you to be tired, right now .
    These things did not help Roger The Rabbit, so he decided to do something about it. Daddy Rabbit was sleeping, but Mommy Rabbit was still awake, so Roger went to talk to her. She suggested that he and you should take all the thoughts that are lingering in your head and put them in a box by the bed.
    – Tomorrow when you wake up you will have the answers to all your thoughts and you will be filled with energy, but now, you will fall asleep , said Mommy Rabbit with certainty in her voice.
    – Sometimes it takes a little longer, but you will always receive an answer to the thoughts you put in your box, said Mommy Rabbit. Roger and you are doing this, now. It feels very relaxing and peaceful to be free in your mind and be ready to fall asleep.
    Afterwards she suggested they would go together with you to see Uncle Yawn, who was the world's kindest wizard and who lived just on the other side of the meadow.
    – This will, with all certainty, help you both to fall asleep , said Mommy Rabbit.
    Said and done, you went to see Uncle Yawn, who would help you fall asleep, now. On their way through the door Roger The Rabbit thought of all the times Uncle Yawn had helped him before. He had made Roger and you fall asleep using his magic spells and magic sleeping powder, so many times before, and this would happen even now.
    Since Roger was certain that he would fall asleep, he told you [name] it is ok to fall asleep now, before the story ends. Because he knows that it has a happy ending and that you will both fall asleep .

    Well on their way, Roger and you were getting even closer to falling asleep . You followed the little path down, down to Uncle Yawn. The path down that he knew so well. He had walked there many times before. Just walked down, down and down... That's right... Good .
    When Roger The Rabbit and Mommy Rabbit had walked for a while, they met the kind Sleepy Snail with his house on his back.
    – Where are you off to now? asked Sleepy Snail curiously.
    – I am going down to visit Uncle Yawn, said Roger The Rabbit, because he will help me fall asleep now . How do you, make yourself fall asleep?
    asked the Roger.
    After a pause with relaxation the kind Sleepy Snail said that the secret is to calm down and to do everything in a more slowly manner. Walk slowly, so slowly. Move slowly, so slowly. Think slowly, breathe slowly and calm, slow and calm, just slow down now .
    – It always works for me , said Sleepy Snail.
    – Thank you, I will try that, said Roger The Rabbit.
    The kind Sleepy Snail said to you [name] , you will fall asleep to this story, so you can easily. Now. Allow yourself to fall asleep .
    Roger left Sleepy Snail and continued to walk into sleep.
    – The thing about lowering your tempo, as Sleepy Snail told us to do, seems like a good idea, Roger said.
    He started to walk slower and slower and took smaller steps. At the same time he started to breathe deeper and slower, he felt even more tired and felt how relaxing it is when things go slower. Roger got more tired and the more he relaxed and calmed down, the more tired he and you became now, and the more tired and the more he relaxed, the more tired he and you became, now [yawn] . That's right .

    Roger and Mommy Rabbit continued slowly on the little path down to Uncle Yawn on the other side of the meadow. After a while they met the beautiful and wise Heavy-Eyed Owl. She sat on a small branch next to the path that led down to Uncle Yawn.
    – Hello Heavy-Eyed Owl. Since you're a wise owl I would like to get help to sleep now , can you help me? said Roger.
    – Of course I can help you to fall asleep now ,
