Restlessness can grip you like a vice during the night. Every murmuration becomes amplified, every shadow takes on a threatening form. You toss and turn, your thoughts swirling, desperate for some elusive comfort. Sleep, once a gentle refuge, has become a distant memory. The hours crawl by, each one an eternity of torment.

You long to flee this prison of your own soul, to fall into the welcome embrace of slumber. Yet, sleep remains just out of reach, leaving you drained and exhausted as dawn breaks.

De-knotting the Threads of Sleeplessness

Sleepless nights can slide in like shadows, snatching our energy and focus. The constant humming of worry and anxiety might keep us trapped inside a restless cycle. But there are ways to disrupt this pattern and rescue our nights.
