The Art of Falling Asleep – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In this episode, I brought in a very special guest, my client Phyllis, to share parts of her sleep journey, from insomnia and into a deep physically and spiritually restorative experience of sleep.

We talk about the concepts and process of her new sleep ritual, informed by the 5-Step-Method but curated and embodied by her own intuitive experience. 

If waking up in the middle of the night and not being able to fall back to sleep has become your greatest sleep challenge, you may be looking in the wrong place and trying to fix the wrong problem.

You also may be facing a couple of different dilemmas regarding nighttime routines:

1) being too sleepy or lethargic to go through a sleep ritual
2) feeling like you have to trade quality for quantity

In this episode I talk about how these dilemmas occur, and how to reframe this very common problem so that you aren't spinning your wheels looking for right solutions for the wrong problem.

There is an easier way to get quality AND quantity. Stick around and have a listen!

In this episode I share how getting in touch with your mortality may be the best way to practice balance & presence.

Could insomnia just be the ego's belief that going to sleep without fixing your problems could mean it has to deal with them for eternity? It just may be.

Join me in Episode 5 to learn more about the concept and feel for yourself!

Has the soundtrack of silence conditioned the body to experience trauma before sleep? Is it the silence, not the sleep that you might be struggling with?

In this episode I explore silence as the setting for sleep, your relationship to silence, what to do with it, and the concept of being more present with silence in order to be more present to sleep.

Many describe their biggest obstacle to sleep as an "active mind."

I propose that it's not an active mind but a mind disconnected from the body that is the real obstacle.

In this episode I will discuss how physics insists the body has more influence over sleep than the mind possibly could, and how this newer, more helpful concept of "Matter Over Mind" can redirect "active thinking" back to consciousness and allow your mind to coexist with sleep.

The planet is undergoing the biggest human energetic shift in its history! In Episode 2, I explain how this shift could be affecting your sleep, and how you can better acclimate using a sleep concept I call phone, keys, wallet. This concept takes the less helpful concept of "something is wrong with me" when you can't sleep and instead, focuses on the energy field as the culprit. I'll show you how to easily switch energy fields and experience the kind of conscious & unconscious change necessary to fall asleep.

Deep underlying emotions can be the undercurrent of insomnia. In this episode, I talk about replacing trying to solve what is underneath by instead pondering the more artistic model of allowing life, with its wide spectrum of unpredictable experiences, to inform the formation of sleep on an unconscious level.
