Mindfulness of Dream & Sleep: for Stress or Trauma Affected Sleep

Thanks to funding from the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust, Team Forward Assist & Salute Her are delighted to partner with Charlie Morley to deliver virtual and weekend retreats especially for veterans with stress or trauma affected sleep patterns. Mindfulness of Dream & Sleep is a holistic approach, using scientifically verified mindfulness based techniques alongside breath & body-work practices, yoga nidra and lucid dreaming. The Mindfulness of Dream & Sleep protocol helps to reduce stress before bed and optimize sleep quality. Through online and in person workshops we will explore how to transform the harmful effects that stress and trauma can have on the third of our life that we spend asleep. 

Mindfulness of Dream & Sleep is based on a non-pathologizing approach to sleep & dreams supported by five core pillars: 

1. Sleep Awareness (learning how we sleep) 

2. Rest & Relax (Yoga Nidra & Hypnagogic Mindfulness) 

3. Transforming Nightmares 

4. Coherent Breathing (the Breath-Body-Mind approach) 

5. Lucid Dreaming 

From common work-related stress to the more serious effects of trauma, these virtual and in person workshops will teach you effective techniques to help you sleep better and wake up healthier. If you are interested in taking part please contact admin@forward-assist.com for more information.

Dates times and joining instructions will be provided in due course.
