Yoga for spring, a time of renewal and reset. Through mindfulness and meditation we create space in our bodies and minds.

If you have known me for long, you likely know that I have struggled with sleep issues for the better part of my adult life. On and off I have been on some fairly intense sleep medication, but generally try to avoid drugs when possible (But find it completely worth it to take them if it is the only choice. There is almost nothing worse for your health than not sleeping.). I find with a reliable routine around sleep, my likelihood of having to take medication to make it through the night decreases significantly. There is plenty of information online about sleep health, but i thought I would share my thoughts, routine and yoga poses in case it helps just one of you out there who is in the same boat! Maybe you have trouble falling asleep, maybe it’s staying asleep, perhaps all aspects around what should be a restful time, have become stressful. Whatever your flavor of insomnia is, a pre-bedtime routine and some bedroom boundaries are a great start!
