Racing thoughts, rumination, wired and tired. All of these are top complaints about sleep disturbances. Have you been there? Physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted and yet incapable of shutting down the racing thoughts in order to get to sleep. It’s not your fault but it is within your control. And that’s our Work IN today. We’re going to explore top down and bottom up tools to win the race to sleep and master the art of recovery. 


Sleep is the ultimate tool for recovery. Built into every single day, sleep is when every system in the body repairs and resets itself for the next day. But it is nearly impossible to get to sleep by simply telling yourself to go to sleep. In fact in many cases that thought alone is guaranteed to keep you awake. 


What if the way our body and mind is responding to our day is exactly right and makes complete sense? What if instead of fighting it we made a subtle shift to work with the body. Instead of stressing ourselves out about getting to sleep we focused on mastering recovery. 



It’s time to stop working out and start working IN. You found the Work IN podcast for fit-preneurs and their health conscious clients. This podcast is for resilient wellness professionals who want to expand their professional credibility, shake off stress and thrive in a burnout-proof career with conversations on the fitness industry, movement, nutrition, sleep, mindset, nervous system health, yoga, business  and so much more. 

I’m your host Ericka Thomas. I'm a resilience coach and fit-preneur offering an authentic, actionable realistic approach to personal and professional balance for coaches in any format.

The Work IN is brought to you by savage grace coaching, bringing resilience through movement, action and accountability. Private sessions, small groups and corporate presentations are open now. Visit savagegracecoaching.com to schedule a call and get  all the details.
