Is the quest for the "perfect sleep" actually keeping you awake?

I loved chatting with Teddy Draper on the Sport & Life podcast about my work as The Restorative Sleep Coach. We moved past the 'hacks' and focused on what actually matters:
reconnecting with your natural ability to rest and letting go of the struggle for control.

Sleep is a foundation block for your health, but it shouldn't bea source of anxiety. My sleep programs focus on:
>Root cause resolution
>Releasing the 'control' trap
>Judgement free support

What a wonderful thing to take part in 💜

Would you like to take part in the 21-Day Kindfulness Experiment?

It starts on Wednesday, November 13th, which also happens to be World Kindness Day. It’s completely free.

The plan is that I’ll be sending out a short ‘kindfulness’ meditation practice each day, plus a short video (2/3 minutes) encouraging some thinking or reflection on kindness.

And it’s an ‘experiment’ because we’ll be measuring happiness, connection, and wellbeing, before and after the 21 days.

The aim is to see if a 21-day focus on kindness, even a wee bit, can make people feel happier, more connected, and improve overall wellbeing.

What is kindfulness? It’s two things:

Kindfulness as a meditation practice is any mindfulness-based practice where at least part of the focus is in the direction of compassion or kindness.

Kindfulness in life is simply to be mindfully kind in how you interact with people.

I love this concept from particularly as we are in
thepsychologymum - How we feel and the emotions we experience are a central part of our mental health.
Conversely how we respond to emotions is critical for our health, mental and physical. While they can perplexing, stubborn, frustrating, annoying, frightening and downright depressing at times, emotions are a fundamental and necessary part of brain functioning.
In fact, they are central to being human.
Unfortunately societal beliefs often tells us we shouldn’t have emotions or some emotions are bad.
Telling your brain it shouldn’t have emotions is like telling your heart not to beat or your lungs not to breathe, and it doesn’t make your brain very happy.
Emotions don’t always feel nice and can make us want to run away from them. And like any avoidance, short term this seems to work, we feel relieved. But inside your brain is feeling pretty annoyed at trying to hold it all in.
How you respond to your emotions is important.
Research shows suppressing, berating and shaming emotions doesn’t help us deal with them at all and just creates more stress and make emotions feel even more difficult.
Naming, validating, expressing and recognising emotions seems to help us process them and help us become friends with them, rather than them having power over us. It seems to soothe those emotions and instead of adding a layer of more stress and difficult feelings, helps us deal with the ones we have.

These 2 quotes felt like they needed to be shared today 🙏 no matter how dark or alone you feel, today can be the day you choose to not stay there anymore, you choose to do something different and believe things can and will be different, they will be better, you just need to take that first step

Understanding and talking about our emotions can be so difficult. To see the toddler have that depth of understanding so young is inspiring ❤️

💐Wishing you an ordinary day 💐

Life is lived, and enjoyed, in the ordinary moments. The moment where we are standing by the kettle waiting for it to boil or sitting at the traffic lights waiting for the light to change to green. If we can find the calm in that moment, we find peace.

If the only thing that brings us joy is the extraordinary, sipping sangria while watching a sunset in Spain, then we condemn ourselves to a life less lived.

There are lots of self help books and articles written about this concept, Esther Eckert talks about when ‘the ordinary becomes extraordinary’
Michael Foley in his book ‘Embracing The Ordinary’ says “cultural factors such as the obsession with celebrity that makes anonymous, mundane life seem worse than death.’
I wouldn’t go that far, but I do recognise the ‘compare and despair’ emotion many get when scrolling through social media. That idea that ‘everyone else is living a better life than I am’ feeling.

Have an ordinary Saturday, free from the need to compare and despair, free from imposter syndrome and free from perfectionism.

The world is a better place because you are in it. 💐

What a great pick me up when I’m sick in bed with Covid 😰 finding out my comments and business link have been used for the second time this month in a lovely article about silent walking 😁

Here’s why experts are making some noise about the mental and physical health benefits of TikTok’s ‘silent walking’ trend.
