This is the face of 8 uninterrupted hours of sleep. Even with Luna and Tru in the bedroom with me. Luna didnt wake up once! I don't even remember the last time I had such a good sleep. Feeling peaceful and content 🧘‍♀️ Had a dream that Cesar Milan took Tru to his ranch in California and cesar put him in with his pack and Tru didnt react. I came over and Tru started acting out and getting crazy. Cesar looks at me and says "you're the one that needs the training" 😂 When I awoke, I looked at Tru and said "Yup, Tru. Cesar said it. I need training" Have a beautiful day folks! #perfectsleep #feelingrested https://www.instagram.com/p/CItKI-vHLm2/?igshid=1e8mgfqb2g805

Day 77: What a great way of finishing up my recovery week. Today I was back at the gym for a spinning session followed by the good old body pump class. I had forgotten how much fun this double workout is. I’m feeling happy, rested and ready for the next block of training. This is big 180 from how I was feeling at the beginning of the week. It’s strange saying this but here it is, I’m glad the recovery week is over.

Who wants to sleep better? Obviously all of us. When it come to sleep quality is what matters not quantity. Try meditating before bed, and sleeping in total darkness. If you like to scroll through Facebook right before bed give yourself a little break! Try not to look at your screen within an hour before bed, and if you must, put your phone on night mode with low brightness. Try it for a few days and you’ll notice a positive difference! #biohacking #lifehacks #sleep #sleepingbeauty #sleeplikeababy #feelingrested #goodmorning #simple

Waking Up & How To Do It.

Why is waking up early so difficult? Why can’t we always awake energized and ready to go? I am here to tell you, it doesn’t have to be - and we most certainly can!

Waking up can often time be somewhat of a struggle for many people around the world. This is primarily because we are all so addicted to the stasis of comfort. Everyone wants to remain comfortable, and to challenge one’s self to push through an uncomfortable and challenging circumstance almost always ends the same way; we cave into our desire for comfort. We begin to rationalize our way out of the challenge of rising to meet the day on a regular basis. “Just five more minutes” Is probably the most commonly uttered response given by anyone being pressured to wake up by their friends, family, spouse or alarm clock. What we fail to understand is that five minutes will have zero impact on how rested we will feel through-out our days adventure, and that comfort we are seeking has already been had throughout the night, our waking up was just poorly timed!

Now, as much as I would love to say “Build your mental resilience! This is the way to march onward and upward! Toughen up and grow a spine, stand up straight sleepy head!” This just isn’t the kind of advice that breeds the “Zenergy” we strive to create here. Tough love like that is reserved for the high school foot-ball teams, and boxing gyms around the globe. Right now we are on our way to feeling rested, we can talk about the art of resilience another day! To return to the question at hand, what has the greatest effect on how rested you feel come time to peel your eyelids open every morning?  What does have an effect on how rested you feel, is how we time when we will sleep vs when we will wake. Adults generally need around seven hours of sleep to consider themselves well rested, but it gets a little bit more complicated than just how long you remain unconscious! A full REM (Rapid Eye Movement) cycle of sleep occurs somewhere around the ninety minute mark after you begin drifting asunder. You do not stay in a stasis of REM sleep for the entire rest period, and will cycle through the stages of light to deep sleep several times through-out the night. So the best way to wake up feeling rested and ready to go, without the groggy and grumpiness -- is to time your alarm, or wake up call for the sleep cycle reset. To do this, one would sleep in ninety minute intervals. (6 hours of sleep is 4 complete REM cycles. 7.5 hours would be the next appropriate standard)   Another helpful tip is to remind yourself before you sleep of something you are excited to do the following day. This will help you to look forward to the day ahead of you, rather than dread the coming of morning. When you are looking forward to the day, you’re much more likely to rise and be ready and willing to take it head on! If you have trouble finding things to look forward to, well that my friend is a whole different chapter of reading all together!  The hour of the day we sleep differs from each individual to the next - so to speak about our circadian rhythms, or homeostasis may be a bit redundant. Seeing as someone who works the night shift will have a vastly different case of each of these things.  I will leave you on one last tip; stop using social media or watching TV before you sleep! The “Sleep-wake homeostasis” directs your body and it’s need for sleep biologically. Exposure to light is the greatest influence on you brains ability to say “Okay, sleep time” and using phones, tablets, or TV’s prior to crashing is a definite no-no! Reading is much better! Just remember, if you’re planning to time your REM cycle, to put the book down and close your eyes on time!

It’s been a tough year, my stirling starlights, But SELF LOVE SEPTEMBER is finally, almost here. Even though I am still healing from the latest Epstein-Barr episode, even though I woke up to comfort and love my amazing 2 year old from 2am to 7am when she finally drifted off back to sleep, even though this year is becoming stranger every day, I choose to see the beauty in myself, my circumstances, and all of existence. I was kind, as my intentions were set to be. I am growing more kind daily. It starts with being kind to me. You cannot pour love from your cup, if your cup is dry. It is nobody’s place to tell another that they don’t need time alone, time to heal, time to integrate. That is time to grow! Once we restore ourselves, we have so much more love and kindness to give. So thankful to myself for allowing yoga to bless me today. I hope we don’t go so long before seeing each other again. So excited for #SelfLoveSeptember and all of the opportunities for growth I have this month. Baby steps to integration... and giant leaps to compassion. One cannot truly hold compassion for another with holding compassion for oneself. It feels way better... don’t trust me. Try it yourself. #SelfLoveSept. #SelfLove. #SelfCare. #SelfCareIsSacred. #yoga. #yogi. #mamayogi. #yogaeverydamnday. #holdingspace. #understanding. #compassion. #generosityofspirit. #nurtureyourself. #liveyourself. #feelingood.#feelingrest. #healing. #integration. #motherhoodrising. #strugglebug. #mamastruggles. #introvert. #individuation. #shadoweork. #shadowworker. #healingvibes. #innerchild. #crewativity. #expressyourself. #moveyourbody. #loveyourbody. #selfloveallowsloveforothers. #selfcarefirst.
