Workshop: The Art of Sleep: How Self-Care During the Day Supports Rest At Night

Trouble Sleeping? Try Adding “Station Stops” to Your Day

Ever end the day wired but exhausted—your body ready for sleep, but your mind still racing? You collapse onto the couch, but your brain keeps replaying the day.

That’s because your nervous system is like a speeding train, still running at full speed.

The Art of Sleep: How Your Daily Self-Care Supports Rest When You Need It Most will explore how real rest starts long before bedtime. This 75-minute workshop explores how our daytime habits and nervous system care directly impact our ability to rest at night. This isn't about sleep hygiene tips. It's about creating the conditions for your body to feel safe enough to sleep.

You’ll learn how to spot overload early, add small “station stops” throughout your day to help your system reset, and create a simple wind-down routine that actually works.

You'll end the evening with a list of new things to try, and not just abstract ideas.

You’ll learn:

• Why your body can’t rest if it doesn’t feel safe
• What daytime habits quietly sabotage your sleep
• How to spot nervous system overload before it spirals
• Simple practices to slow your “speeding inner train”
• How to create conditions for rest, not force it
• How to design a personalized wind-down routine that helps your body feel safe enough to rest
• Ways to transform anxious sleep thoughts into supportive self-talk

This is a practical, research-informed session designed for anyone who wants to feel more rested, calm, and in control of their energy. You’ll leave with actionable tools you can start using that same night.
