Breath Exercise: A Journey Into Sleep

A Journey Into Sleep

It’s true that we all live fast paced lives - emails, texts and social media have taken communicating to a rapid new level and our bodies are simply not evolved to keep up! Our breath patterns change daily and are often sending the wrong messages to the brain via the nervous system and keeping us in flight or fight making it hard to switch off at night time. 

Sleep is seen as a luxury! In fact, insomnia is on the rise at an alarming rate – 

Two thirds of UK adults suffer from disrupted sleep and nearly a quarter manage no more than five hours a night! 

We spend so much time up our heads and without feeling the presence and connection in our lower bodies so let’s bridge the two together with a simple breath exercise designed the relax the body and mind. This will help connect to your felt senses, stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system and become aware of where you may be holding any tension and where the breath feels like it is more flowing and where it may be restricted. Think of this as a lovely internal massage for the mind and the body to help get you to sleep. 

These shorts are exclusively created by Rebecca Dennis to help you find the space to breathe and experience moments of self-care through reflective, empowering and relaxing exercises.

You can come back and listen to these at any time you feel the need. They are free, easy to use and the more you practice the more you will feel the benefits.
