Your Guide To Deeper Sleep

<font color="white">Your Guide To Deeper Sleep</font>

Welcome to this 10-day course on Insight Timer to help you redefine your relationship with sleep. I'm Jennifer Piercy and it's my honor to be your humble guide. This course will be helpful whether you have challenges with falling asleep, not getting enough sleep, or quality of sleep. Or whether you just love sleep and want to know more about this love, this pillar of well-being that has so much to teach us, both through what is known and what is unknown. As my teacher Dr. Ruben Nyman says, we need to approach sleep as a practical matter without losing sight of it as a personal, intimate relationship. Like a precious gift or an act of love, sleep is grace. It's not a prize to be won or a commodity to be purchased. It's not something we have to work for, but something we have to be willing to stop working for. In a TED Talk called How to Make Stress Your Friend, health psychologist Kelly McGonigal cites studies that demonstrate that believing stress is bad for you is actually worse than having stress itself. So I think it's pretty important to be curious about what might this mean for our relationship to sleep? When we look at all the well-meaning sleep hype right now, the sleep revolution, the products, and tips, and tricks, and hacks, and gadgets, and measurement tools, and all the latest studies about how important it is and how bad it is for us to lose it, it seems highly likely and even critical that just how we think about sleep, what we believe about it, and the way we language and speak about it impacts our experience of it. So you will learn to make of this experience an invitation, an invocation, a fresh conversation with sleep. And you will learn practical mindset shifts and simple actions that nourish your self-trust and freedom. My intention is that this journey, learning how to sleep better, becomes a portal to remind you of your innate wholeness. Rest and sleep as part of your nature, part of who you are, not something to perfect, not a performance, not another wellness fad or a to-do. So join me as we explore sleep as a homecoming, a natural spontaneous meditation as ancient as time itself.
