220 // Who Needs Sleep? How to Make Our Rest a Little Better


Listen Later

Sleep. We all want good sleep. For many of us, it’s like this elusive prize we keep hoping to win but keep having it snatched away by little adorable people (our children:), or bad dreams, or night wakings, or panic attacks, or (insert your sleep woes here–thay can be endless).

In this episode,  Taralyn gives 5 specific tips for improving your sleep and explains the next episode, which is her guided meditation for sleep (you’re welcome all her yoga students who have been requesting it for years!).

Each tip is an easy, low hanging fruit that has the potential to help you get the rest you need.

Our Daily Meditation: this is the meditation that Taralyn does every morning. You simply push play and she walks you through it. It’s an easy way to get yourself into the habit.
