Sleep is fleeting as we get older. Kids moving out, empty nesters, life purpose, hormonal shifts, drop in melatonin, aging parents, etc. can create havoc and keep our cortisol spiked even while we are trying to sleep and recover. Over time, our bodies and brains do not recover enough affecting our metabolic health and cognition.
As we get older, we have to become more intentional about our sleep hygiene...something I shared before in many posts.
I added this class just for that reason....intentional rest where we are not actually sleeping but allowing out bodies and minds to rest while fully awake. This kind of practice acts as a prelude for the big event of sleep.
