Time to give it up and head for the garden?
Unless you've changed your diet, your spouse or your schedule, different job conditions seem a plausible catalyst.
Can you afford to head for the garden? It matters, because if you cannot, you'll need to live with the bad dreams. At most, you can remonstrate gently, pointing out that mercy is a huge virtue according to the Koran and tying that in to current best practices.
Obviously if you have the garden fund overflowing, you can be more explicit, but skilled marketing remains essential if you want to do more than just quit.
