Raise your hand if you've got a child at home that refuses to sleep? There is a reason terrorists use sleep deprivation as one of their tactics… it messes with your mind, it wears down your body, and you start to unravel slowly.

My special guest today is author Gitte Winter Graugaard and she's simplifying how to help your child get better sleep. If you're exhausted from the nightly bedtime struggle or simply just want to make the experience a wee less stressful, Gitte shares her tips that'll help soothe your child to sleep and create a strong bond between the two of you. Gitte Winter Graugaard simplifies how to help your child get better sleep.

In this episode, you will learn:

• Why sleep is so important and what the consequences are of not getting enough quality sleep
• How the connection we have with our kids affects how we run our businesses, as well
• If your child isn't sleeping well at night, where to begin that will help them (and yourself)
• How the 4 elements (fire, water, earth, air) apply to how we react and respond when we are triggered and this relates to our sleep quality
• How to create sacred space in our bedtime routines at night that will help our children feel safe, calm and loved
• What the "love mountain" visualization is and how it can help your child sleep better at night

If you're at your wits' end when it comes to helping your child get better sleep, girl, I feel ya. My youngest didn't sleep all the way through the night until he was a year and a half old! That's well over 500 days of getting 3 hours of sleep wherever I could!! (Gosh, I sure could've used Gitte insight way back when.) I hope today's episode brings you a new perspective on sleep and helps you both to connect and calm down together tonight at bedtime.
