Trouble sleeping

I don't know if it is related to the training but lately I have had some trouble sleeping. It's not every night but some nights I wake up nearly hour. What can I do to reduce this, whehter or not it is related to the training?

Core pressure/filling

I have found that the cylinder in the center of the torso that maintains internal pressure really changes the way I move. Maintaining that awareness and feel while bending and twisting requires me to have more range of motion. 

More Standing

This curiculum is FANTASTIC!!! So many things are coming along that my entire experience of any traning is dramatically different. I've been working everyday on the Standing. Getting the back stop is getting easier and esier. Getting the U is becoming more natural, but still not easy. Apparently, my hips were way off and the inner core conditioning was not what it could have been to find that awareness. But, everything is changing. Strangely, with newer, deeper sensations the training is even more vigorous and difficult.
