We all know what we should be doing to sleep better, cut the screen time, skip the wine, try yoga, get a better pillow. But what if it's not just about your routine… it's about how your subconscious relates to it?
In this third episode of the Close Your Eyes, Sleep Series, Grace shares how to create your own dream bedtime routine, first in your subconscious, and then in your physical environment. You'll learn why even the most beautifully designed routines fall short if your subconscious hasn't caught up, and how we can use visualization to bridge that gap.
Grace also talks about habits that support real sleep (like stopping liquids earlier, incorporating sleep-friendly foods, and progressive muscle relaxation), while always returning to the most important part: how you feel when you get into bed.
Your homework this week is simple and powerful: listen to the "Visualize Your Perfect Night's Sleep" recording on the Grace Hypnotherapy app each night, and start designing your own dream space, on the inside and out.
