Sleep Is a Healing State

Sleep is not just “recovery time”—it’s when your body detoxifies, repairs tissues, balances hormones, and integrates emotional experiences. It’s essential for healing trauma and regulating your nervous system.

Yet so many struggle with:

• Racing thoughts before bed

• Waking at 2–3 AM

• Restless legs or disrupted breathing

• Nighttime anxiety or dread

These are not signs of failure. They’re invitations to slow down and recalibrate.

Creating a Sleep-Safe Environment

• Dim lights 2 hours before bed

• Turn off screens and avoid overstimulation

• Make your room cool, dark, and quiet

• Practice a short somatic or breath ritual before sleep

Rituals for Better Sleep

• Legs up the wall pose

• Body scanning from head to toe

• Soft humming or deep sighs

• Journaling to “offload” thoughts

Sleep is sacred. It’s not a luxury—it’s your body’s most natural way to return to balance
