There are big dreams we want to tackle. But we can’t do it without this basic need addressed. Yet, many of us are lacking this essential ingredient.
Sleep.
How much have you gotten lately?
A psychiatrist I know told me his clients come to him struggling with insomnia. “They use their iPad, or smart devices and expect to go straight to sleep before bed,” he said. But we can’t simply wind down immediately following a captivating video or the news. We need a routine just like we give our kids a bedtime routine.
We want you to read our posts on how to gain joy, and understanding about the things you’ve always wanted to know regarding trauma, abuse and childhood misbehaviors. But if you’re going to read it or anything else that stirs up your emotions, make sure to have a routine in place that involves some type of relaxing wind down activity.
Have a great week!
