When you have insomnia, sleep can feel like a nightly battleground.

The harder we try to fix it, the more elusive it becomes. Insomnia is driven by the very efforts we make to escape it.

So many people (myself included) get caught in a cycle of trying everything — different teas, blackout curtains, sleep apps — only to find that these efforts just contribute to the problem.

It’s incredibly frustrating.

You might feel completely alone in this, but I assure you, you’re not. Many people share this struggle. The good news is there’s a way out.

Tune in and learn:

• What effortlessness truly means
• Why I’m fascinated with the flow state
• Everything you need to know about sleep efforts
• The role of the Law of Reversed Effort
• How sleep efforts reinforce the problem they’re meant to solve
• Why intention is the only thing that matters

By understanding the concept of effortlessness, we can break free from the cycle of never-ending sleep efforts and let our bodies do what they’re naturally designed to do.

Which is… sleep.

Enjoy!
