Ayurvedic Insights for Better Sleep

Shann Vander Leek & Ananga Sivyer
About this episode

#699 This month our focus is on "Restful Nights," a podcast series dedicated to improving your sleep using ancient wisdom and modern insights. Today we are exploring Ayurvedic principles that can help you achieve better sleep.

 

This show is sponsored by BetterHelp 

Do you ever find yourself comparing your life with others? Especially on social media? Perhaps wishing that you had the job, house, partner that someone else has? The grass is not always greener on the other side. And often what you see online are the highlights of someone’s life not their day-to-day experience. Therapy can help you focus on what you want, instead of what others have, so you can start living your best life.

Therapy allows you to explore thoughts, feelings, and worries without judgment. And you can learn to develop coping strategies, practice self-reflection and work on habits you'd like to change.

If you’re thinking of starting therapy, give BetterHelp a try. Just fill out a brief questionnaire to get matched with a licensed therapist, and switch therapists any time for no additional charge.

Stop comparing and start focusing, with BetterHelp.
