COURSE

Bookends: A Morning And Evening Routine Reset

With Eric Schott

The first moments after waking and the final moments before sleep are two of the most powerful windows for shaping the nervous system and the subconscious mind. In this 4-day course, you’ll learn how to intentionally “bookend” your day with short, nourishing practices that activate clarity and energy in the morning, and promote deep regulation, integration, and subconscious rewiring at night. Each day includes: A 15-minute morning practice to energize the body, focus the mind, and set intentional direction for the day ahead A 15-minute evening practice to down-regulate the nervous system, process the day, and prepare the mind for restorative sleep Through a blend of breathwork, guided meditation, journaling prompts, visualization, affirmations, and gentle somatic awareness practices, you’ll learn how to work with your biology rather than against it. By the end of the course, you’ll design your own personalized morning and evening “bookends” — rituals that feel meaningful, sustainable, and aligned with your life. This course is ideal if you’re seeking: + More calm, clarity, and emotional regulation + A simple but powerful daily practice + Better sleep and nervous system balance + A grounded way to support personal growth and subconscious change No prior experience with breathwork or meditation is required. Music is "Heavenly Dreams" by Ambient Boy. Many thanks for your contribution!

Use the power of your mornings and evenings to soothe your nervous system and reshape subconscious habits.
