No More Sleepless

You may have heard of the numerous health benefits of meditation and might have even tried out meditating in the past. There has been quite some research into the topic, concluding that mediation can be beneficial for stress relief and stress management, it may help you sleep better, promote emotional health and well-being and can also help with pain management. 

In today's No More Sleepless podcast episode, I will give you some tips on how to get started with a meditation or mindfulness practice and also maintain it in the long-run. I will also provide a short, calming, guided mediation towards the end of the episode before we get started with the bedtime story. Relax, enjoy and have a good night.

In the previous podcast episode, I spoke about knowing your WHY to stay motivated on your journey to better sleep. Now since you are looking into improving your sleep, knowing what is keeping you up at night and what is the root cause of your sleep issue or insomnia will help you address the issue at the core.

If you can't put your finger on what is keeping you up at night, I recommend analyzing your sleep as well as daily behavior in a sleep dairy. Here is the link to the sleep dairy posted by the Sleep Foundation:

In this episode, I'm breaking down how you can get started on your way to better sleep by focusing on one change you want to implement. Before you get going on that though, let's figure out what your WHY is. Why do you want to get better sleep? Why do you want to prioritize getting enough sleep. Knowing your WHY will help you stay motivated on your journey to better sleep.

In previous episodes I spoke about my sleep journey and how I overcame insomnia by taking a holistic approach and analyzing what works specifically for me with an approach of trial and error. For this approach I had to listen to my body to see what works for me. In this episode I will provide some guidance on how you can too gain the confidence in your intuition back and listen to your body in your health journey.

When I was struggling with insomnia it felt like I tried it all, from numerous different supplements, sleeping pills, a weighted blanket, CBD, therapy and more. There are lots of things that didn't work for me though per common research and reviews seem to be successfully helping people with their sleep issues. Then, with other things, habits and routines, I saw some success in the long run. The takeaway from this show is that it might take trial and error to figure out what works for you. 

As always, we will end the podcast with a calming bedtime story that will hopefully put you to sleep if you are not already asleep by the time we get there.

Some of my podcast listeners might already know that I love to include some light stretches in my evening or bedtime routine. Stretching before going to sleep helps me unwind, release any tensions that may have built up during the day, and clear my mind as I breathe deeply through a stretch. Often I'll just take a few minutes right in bed for some very gentle and relaxing stretches. 

I have a video on my favorite stretches I like to do before bedtime on my Instagram. You can check it out @anna_nomoresleepless.

In this episode I'm talking about taking a holistic approach to your sleep. Based on my research, I believe in a strong mind - body connection. If you are struggling with sleep, maybe changing a thing or two might not be sufficient but you may need to look at taking a holistic approach, realizing your physical and mental state as well as your environment and relationships can affect your sleep.
