In this short 3-minute episode, we cover the four most common reasons your body can't transition into rest, and exactly what to do about each one.The four culprits: overhead lighting after 6pm that mimics daylight and suppresses melatonin, eating too close to bedtime so your body is digesting instead of resting, screen use that floods your nervous system with blue ligh...

The whole practice is floor-based and slow, designed to work with your nervous system rather than push against it.

Send me a text:)This 17-minute practice is built around one question: what does your nervous system actually need to fall asleep faster and sleep more deeply?The answer isn't trying harder to relax. It's giving your nervous system a concrete physiological signal that the day is genuinely over — one clear enough to actually change your heart rate, vagal tone, and cortisol. That's what cyclic sighing does.We use it here twice — at the opening and again at the close. A double inhale through the nose followed by a lo...

Send me a text:)This 15-minute practice is designed for one goal: helping you fall asleep quickly.

You can continue box breathing throughout the practice or let it go after the opening — your choice.From there we move through cat-cow, tabletop side body stretches, camel pose, child's pose with lateral variat...
