NICHOLAS BOOTHMAN
Chapter 12:
Sleep Is Your
Superpower
Billie stared at the ceiling. 3:17 AM. Again.
The numbers on her digital clock glowed with a
brooding intensity, mocking her. Sleep. That elusive,
magical state seemed to have abandoned her.
She'd tried everything. Warm milk. Chamomile
tea. White noise. Meditation apps. Counting sheep
(which, she'd discovered, was surprisingly stressful).
Nothing worked.
She tossed and turned, her mind racing, replaying
the day's events, anticipating tomorrow's stuļ¬, a
relentless hamster wheel of anxious thoughts.
