Do you have any advice for when your mind wont slow down? My brain creates imaginary problems that I feel like i have to solve mentally - weird things like folding washing or something. I have to remind myself it's not real and doesnt need to be done! I find the only way to silence it is to pkay a podcast or youtube episode of people talking. Do you have any tips on how to address or improve this?

"8I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety." Psalm 4

5 Thomas asked him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going; and how can we know the way?” 6 Jesus assured them, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14
"And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" John 8:32
repent my brothers and sisters, only Jesus Christ saves.

I'm witnessing a real contradiction here: most sleep theory tells me to get out of bed if I'm awake for more than 15 minutes, because you don't want to train your brain/nervous system/body to be awake in bed... you always want the body to know that it is sleep time when you lay in bed; bed is for sleeping only. So now the dilemma... which of these datums are correct... stay in bed/get out of bed?
