It starts before you arrive

First, we have a conversation, and we figure out what is currently going on and how sleep, or lack thereof, is impacting your life. Maybe:

• You think you might have sleep apnea.
• You're just wondering how to get reliably better rest.
• You're a parent recovering from a consistent, chronic lack of deep REM sleep.
• You're a techy living in the city, used to sleeping with your laptop and devices in the bed or next to it, unable to disconnect enough to fully sleep. You probably know a lot about better sleep hygiene, but can't enact it or enforce it regularly enough to rest well.
• You're feeling like your decision-making capacity and your awareness have been slipping, and you're not really sure why.

What we do together

We do an assessment to figure out what might be going on and what problems you are having personally. I help you sift and sort through the shoulds: the sleep hygiene the internet tells you is perfect, what you can actually do in your life right now, and what you can build into your life to make it even better.

I'm a very good sleeper, and I often find that people sleep better around me. My habits around sleep not only make sleep hygiene fun and easy, they help you see a way of living that is actually in alignment with what you're looking for, instead of a consistent failure of willpower to turn off the devices at 10pm that leaves you feeling guilty and remorseful.

Most of the time, a sleep reset happens at my space. Often this gives you a clean break from whatever your blockers might be, and helps you identify the ones that are creating problems and the ones you can simply ignore for now. Sometimes it's helpful for me to come to your place, to see what you're working with and help identify what's getting in the way.

Why it matters

The downside of chronically not getting enough sleep is that it feels like an invisible variable. You can't remove lack of sleep as a variable from your capacity until you get restful sleep: sleep that refreshes your hormones, testosterone and energy, rebuilds muscle, cleans out your brain (autophagy), and helps your body and emotional world reset. Until then, there tends to be a lot of resistance in life that seems unfixable.

In the past, I have helped people discover they had sleep apnea during sleep research sessions, so that they could get properly treated. Now they have the capacity and the brain power that had been missing, which they had forgotten they had.

What you walk away with

A protocol that you have designed yourself, with my assistance and expertise: something that will actually work for you, that you can implement immediately, and that you can continue to reach towards.

My background

My expertise in this comes from my Flow Research Collective training and my Performance Neuroscience coaching certification.

Time and investment

A sleep reset is usually about the same length as an overnight session, and usually costs about the same, with a little extra for the assessment and conversation beforehand. See my rates, or reach out and ask.
