You have reached the end of the season, but it just might be the begging for your sleep journey!

In this episode, I stress the importance of having a dark and quiet room beyond bedtime.

We also talk about one of the hardest steps in getting restorative sleep: setting up your mind to crave sleep without thinking about it! It involves changing what you think about in bed.

I highly recommend saving the guided meditation for bedtime.

But please do more than think about getting my book “Sleep Reset in 12 Steps”, available in ebook form on all major ebook platforms, and on Amazon if you prefer paperback.
