This is a live online yoga course via Zoom, streamed from our Studio based class.

Are you struggling with your sleep? Feeling agitated, anxious, sluggish, lethargic, whacked out, a bit off par, cream-crackered, erratic or just generally meh?

If you are having sleep difficulties then this is the course for you.

There’s so much that can affect our sleep, from the obvious biggies – caffeine, stress, over-active mind, to the more subtle influences – how we pattern our behaviour throughout the day and how we manage our energy.

The Sleep Recovery Course looks at all these factors and helps you to collate a sleep toolkit to effectively manage your energy stores, so that you can be bright and alert when you need to be and get proper restful sleep at the optimum time.

In this holistic approach we will cover your sleep type, sleep habits and specific poses and sequences which can enable a better night’s sleep. You will be guided through simple and effective yoga techniques to combat fatigue and replenish the nervous system enabling you to find better, meaningful rest.

By using these tools, we can nurture the soul and get to be the brighter, shinier, more alert and more rested version of ourselves – sounds good huh?

About the course
I trained with Lisa Sanfilippo, a psychotherapist and senior yoga teacher who founded the Sleep Recovery yoga therapy method for overcoming insomnia and improving sleep.

Sleep Recovery is a five step yoga-based method for improving your sleep, deepening your rest and waking up happier every day.

Each week we’ll focus on one of the five steps…

1. Repair Your Body – learn how to pull tension out of your body and physically prepare for rest. We acknowledge any sleep saboteurs that may be getting in your way and discover your personal ‘sleep type’ so that you can begin to create a plan for your best rest.

2. Replenish Your Energy – learn how to sustainably put energy back on the grid to help you effectively manage your energy flow throughout the day. Discover how to nurture your nervous system out of the stress response and into the relaxation response.

3. Reclaim Your Mind – discover ways to calm the chatter in the mind, creating a quiet corner for all the mental clutter to settle. We work with tools to aid mental digestion and mindfulness to help us find a deeper, more settled rest.

4. Restore Emotional Balance – when life hands you lemons, make a hot toddy! When we’re taking a battering, we look at powerful ways to help acknowledge the turbulence and soothe our emotions, steadying the way for a more peaceful sleep.

5. Reawaken Happy – sometimes our sleeplessness acts as the wake-up call we need to address any little chinks in our wellbeing. Look at this as a wellbeing m.o.t. By taking the time to re-centre yourself and address your physical, energetic, mental and emotional influences, you’re polishing your soul and helping it to shine bright.

What to expect
The Sleep Recovery course is run over 5 weeks from 11th November to 9th December inclusive.
