In this episode, the Queen of Sleep, Rebecca Moulton and I…

  • disagree with the blanket sleep hygiene recommendations, sleep apps, and sleep-monitoring devices
  • discuss the epidemic of women doing it all as caregivers and why we need to let ourselves off the hook
  • discuss Yoga Nidra as a helpful tool for cultivating rest
  • discuss the nervous system and why down regulating it is necessary for good sleep
  • reveal how breath work biologically signals messages of calm and safety to the nervous system
  • expose the awful consequences we all suffer with our sleep and rest as a result of capitalism and patriarchy
  • expose the toxic attitudes about sleep and why re-writing our sleep story is so important
  • share the concept of healing from the body to the brain rather than from the brain to the body (bottom up, not top down)
  • give practical tips for stopping the middle of the night monkey mind
  • share a fantastically relaxing guided meditation/body scan to get you in parasympathetic mode
  • talk about why rest (not sleep) is a radical, revolutionary, and rebellious act of self-care and why we must create a life that honors rest
