10 Days To Better Sleep

With Bethany Auriel-Hagan

This 10-day course shares four of my personal approaches to accessing deep, restorative sleep. We discuss, consider, and explore: releasing resistance, engaging sensuality, gathering evidence of our natural ability to sleep, and embracing our unique sleep rhythm. If you are weary, frustrated, and tired of trying to get some relief, welcome. If you are curious about new ways to deepen and enrich your sleep, you’re in the right place. This course utilizes all your senses, your imagination, and the power of self-inquiry. Over 10 days, I share a bit about my relationship with sleep and guide you to discover your own. This course invites you to move beyond what you’ve been told about how to sleep, how much to sleep, what qualifies as good or bad sleep, and encourages you to open to your own innate knowing of how sleep works for you. Please note that this course is provided solely for educational and entertainment purposes, and is not intended as a substitute for the medical recommendations of physicians, mental health professionals, or other healthcare providers.

Lesson 1

Our Shared Story Of Sleep

On Day 1, we talk about what you can expect from this course: Who am I and how am I qualified to talk about sleep? [hint: I’m human and need to sleep, just like you. I also have a unique sleep pattern, and although you may not realize it, so do you.] We’ll also overview each day’s topic, discuss what might be challenging and how to move through it, and we’ll experiment with our innate ability to work with sleep energy.

Lesson 2

Releasing Resistance To Sleep

On Day 2, we discuss what we mean by resistance to sleep, why it matters, and explore how it might show up for you. We talk about the simple fact that just the word “sleep” carries energy and can be loaded with emotion. Day 2 creates space for us to recognize how our reactions to thinking and talking about sleep may be keeping us from our best experience of it.

Lesson 3

Releasing Resistance To Sleep: The Exploration

On Day 3, we move a little deeper into the energy of resistance in order to develop our ability to detect it and easily release it. Resistance to sleep is a natural reaction to everyday stress but it doesn’t have to be our habitual response. Day 3 offers the opportunity to practice noticing and releasing resistance using visualization and movement that anchors the body.

Lesson 4

The Sensuality Of Sleep

Day 4 is a beautiful, soulful experience of discovering the sensuality of sleep. We begin with defining for ourselves the meaning of sensuality. What does sensuality mean to you? Is the experience of sensuality something you shy away from or something you embrace? Today's session is a delicious sampling of opportunities for self-discovery, and better understanding the unexpectedly sensual path to sleep.

Lesson 5

The Sensuality Of Sleep: The Exploration

Day 5 creates space to deepen our experience of the sensuality of sleep. Did you notice any resistance? Did something surprising and wonderful show up for you? This session is all about bringing a new openness to the pleasure of sleep and if necessary, offers the opportunity to practice dissolving any resistance that may linger.

Lesson 6

Gathering Evidence Of Our Natural Ability

Day 6 reminds us that we already have an intimate experience with sleep and offers the opportunity to revisit memories of nourishing sleep. In this session, we consider past sleep habits in relation to current ones. What’s different? Why? We also discuss the current trend to ‘clean up your sleep or sleep clean’ and whether or not it impacts your specific relationship with sleep.

read more

Lesson 7

Gathering Evidence: The Exploration

On Day 7, we explore the truth of our natural ability to sleep. We practice accessing soothing, nourishing memories of sleep which can act as distinct guides back to the simplicity of sleep. Once again, we breathe into the possibility of resistance, old judgments about sleep, and our willingness to choose ease over suffering to arrive in peaceful sleep.

Lesson 8

Honoring Our Natural Sleep Rhythm

On Day 8, we consider the idea that everyone has a unique sleep rhythm, that a one-size-fits-all sleep formula may not be accurate. Who are you in your relationship with sleep? How are you in your relationship with sleep? Regardless of whether or not these questions confuse or interest you, Day 8 will offer a serious opportunity for shifting how you think about your sleep.

Lesson 9

Honoring Our Natural Sleep Rhythm: The Exploration

Fabulous! Day 8 created a major shift in how you think about sleep! Now what? Today, we hone your unique sleep story. We articulate what worked for you in the preceding days and nights of this course. What did you notice? What does that mean for you and your experience of consistent, restorative sleep?

Lesson 10

Closing The Course As Your Sleep Story Continues

Day 10 is a summary of the course and a final anchoring of your unique sleep story. We’ll explore one last shared experience of working with the energy of sleep. As we close the course, we’ll illuminate a few next steps of support as you continue cultivating a welcoming, peaceful relationship with sleep.

This course was delightfully surprising! I was skeptical but it had me shift my perspective and I was shocked to begin getting better sleep right away, just by being willing to think differently about my sleep. Thank you, Bethany, so much! You are a sleep angel.

Refreshing change from the ordinary sleep instructions. Not a one size fits all. We are all unique and so is our sleep. Truly made a difference. Gorgeous speaking voice.

Interesting course with some powerful ideas. It encouraged me to change my perspective on my sleep and to question the standard definition and expectations of sleep. This has made me feel less stressed and anxious as I see that I don't need to fix myself, but rather embrace my sleep rhythms. I'm really grateful, thank you!
