Tips & Tools For Improving Sleep Quality & Staying Asleep

With Anna Langston

Just as there are many reasons for sleep difficulties, there are also many ways to enhance sleep quality. Each person responds differently to various approaches—some find balance through the body, others through breathwork, and some through mental and emotional techniques. Every pathway is valid and plays a crucial role in achieving deep, restorative sleep. In this course, we’ll explore a range of techniques tailored to different needs, from body-based relaxation methods to breath-centered practices and mindset shifts. Additionally, we’ll dive into sleep training strategies, including meditation and Yoga Nidra, to help you cultivate a more effortless and restful sleep experience. No matter which approach resonates with you, this course will guide you toward better sleep and overall well-being.

Lesson 3

Better Sleep Through A Focusing Practice For Sleep

Today, we’ll explore how to approach anxiety and stress by meeting our thoughts and emotions with compassion, curiosity, and self-love. Rather than resisting or ignoring them, we can gently face them—allowing them to become more manageable and less overwhelming. There are many ways to do this, such as journaling, but today, I’d like to guide you through a practice called Focusing. Focusing can take as little as ten minutes to feel what Eugene Gendlin, the founder of Focusing calls a 'felt shift' which could mean a feeling of a shift within the body, like a shift in sensation or understanding about a particular subject.
