Help Me With My Fear Of Being Asleep
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, SweetDreams.
SweetDreams: I was inspired by another reader to ask about sleep. I love my dreams so much, but I’ve had a difficult time sleeping since I was very young. After a visit one night from what I think were extraterrestrial beings, I became more fearful at night, and I’d like to know more about what and who that was.
Council: Many people at night do some astral travel where they see other beings. Or they are in conversation with other beings that they don’t know in their current reality, nad those beings can come to speak to them. Sometimes it comes when you’re just dreaming.
And so the experience you went through was to see other lifeforms, to let that in, to experience that, and try to remember what it was like when you saw this. Do you remember anything that was said? And when we say, “said”, we mean telepathically. Did you get a feeling? There was no harm and no danger in what you saw. It was just at that particular time you were open to let this in.
And so we ask you, is there something about it that frightens you now? Do these extraterrestrials or other beings keep coming back and frightening you? We don’t see this. It’s just that you were open at that point to let other energies of other lifetimes in and to see it, and then as you get older, to work with it, and try to understand it. And that’s what you experienced.
SweetDreams: I’d like to resolve any past life issues that relate to my difficulty sleeping, and I’d very much appreciate any insight that will help me.
Council: We see here at one point, not in a past lifetime but in your present lifetime, you were very young, almost a baby. You heard other adults talking about extraterrestrials, about them reading how people were kidnapped and taken to another planet. You just overheard this in preparation for the time when you’d see it yourself. You just heard people talking about being afraid when you sleep, or when you’re walking down a street at night alone. This is what was discussed, that you could be taken by these creatures. At one time there were a lot of people seeing what they thought were flying saucers. And so all of that, in a young child’s mind, stayed with you.
But again we’d say there’s nothing here that should disturb you when you think of it, or when you go over what you saw, and that nothing dangerous or nothing harmful came of it. And just try to feel the presence of this other spirit, because they are spirits also. And try to tune into what it felt like to be in their presence. Try to tune into their vibration. Was it loving? Was it curious? And from that you’ll learn. And as you accept this, that you were able to connect and there is no danger there, when you’re ready, you will let that in again. And it’s just a way of you learning that there are other realities and other lifeforms. And so that’s a precious gift you gave yourself.
Bob: Can you think of anything that SweetDreams can do to get her sleeping more comfortably?
Council: Number 1, it’s knowing that you are safe, and that nothing will come in the middle of the night and steal you or murder you, or take you away and you won’t return. You are in charge.
And think every night before you go to bed, when I’m ready, because I’m safe and I’ve seen other realities before, I will let more in. I will learn from this, and I will know how much more there really is than my reality.
And so the learning, and then talking about it, getting other people to think about it, allows everyone to grow, allows everyone to be open even a little bit more, to other realities. And we are here to take this reality further than it has been.

Welcome
Bob & Cynthia
Welcome to Ask The Council, a blog where you can ask a group of loving and wise spirit guides a question and get an answer, for free. You can also contact us for a paid private phone session with The Council, and you can read the questions other readers have asked and the answers they’ve received. Other posts contain quotations from The Council that we hope you find inspiring, uplifting, and educational.
Ask The Council a Question
If there’s a question you’ve been thinking about and you’re curious how The Council might answer it, we encourage you to either use the blog’s Comments feature to ask your question, or contact us for a private phone session. You can click here to go to the ‘Let us know what you think about this post, or ask The Council a question’ section of this Welcome post and type your question there or you can type your question in the same section at the bottom of any post that inspires you to ask a question or leave a comment.
Since the blog is currently a project we do in our spare time it can take a while for us to do a session with The Council on a question and then publish a post on the session. Depending on the question and the session it can sometimes take weeks after a question is asked to publish a post with The Council’s answer. Please be patient.
The Council
Cynthia is able to communicate with a group of five non-physical spirit guides in a manner similar to the way Esther Hicks communicates with and speaks for the spirit guides, Abraham, and Jane Roberts communicated and spoke for the spirit guide, Seth. I (Bob) basically interview The Council as they speak through Cynthia during what we refer to as a session. Sessions generally last 5-15 minutes and are usually audio recorded. During the session Cynthia is aware of what The Council is saying and she also receives visual impressions and other types of telepathic communication from them.
The Council’s Basic Guidance
Since we began these sessions with The Council around 2009 they consistently emphasize a few basic ideas that we attempt to summarize here:
1) You are an eternal spiritual being in a physical body.
You are the energy and vibration of continuously expanding love, intelligence, and joy.
Your physical experience in your physical body and your psychological experience of your personality is a small part of the totality of who you truly are.
Let yourself imagine from time to time what it might feel like to experience more of the wondrous totality of who you really are, and don’t be surprised if you are able to experience this more often.
2) You are the creator of all that you experience.
As you open to the possibility your true nature is greater than you ordinarily perceive, it becomes easier to consider the possibility that this expanded you is truly the creator of everything that you experience.
If you’re used to thinking of yourself in a more limited sense, the idea that you are the creator of your experience may be difficult to understand. Our post, What About This Idea That We Create Whatever We Desire, offers insights into this idea.
3) You are here to expand the love you are into physical reality.
You chose, as a spiritual being, to come into this physical reality to experience the joy of expanding the love you are as a spiritual being, into this physical reality. This is your purpose for being here.
Finding Your Way Around the Blog

Hi, Romance Mystic. We believe other readers have shared experiences with extraterrestrials.
