Do you find it difficult to switch off your mind before sleep? You’re not alone, which is why we’ve asked yoga expert Deborah, to give us a lesson in Yoga Nidra. Otherwise known as “conscious relaxation,” this routine will ease you into relaxation mode and ensure a restful night’s sleep.

It will happen.
Life will break you
into 1000 pieces.

When it does,
remember your sacred work.

Don’t pretend everything is ok,
Don’t stuff the pain
into your belly
and walk on.

Strength is not found
in false notions
of composure.

Stop.
and imagine
your heart
as an open and holy passage,
see it wide and clear,
free of any and all obstructions,
and then let the agony
flow through,
again and again,
it flows,
let it flow,
let it be,
when the instinct
to shut down erupts,
breathe down
into the canal of the heart,
and keep it open,
let the pain move
through you.

voted a spiritual growth fave for a reason:

"Wonderful soul, Deborah, enchanted us with her flying poems, mystical dreams and astral soul travels." ✨

"Deborah's words cut through our armor, because a place within our souls previously hidden is revealed, because, for a few suspended dream-like moments, protected truths peek out, wide eyed and hopeful, only to, more boldly, dance their way out, draw us close and wrap us in an embrace like no other." —Shonali

"Deborah writes with a multi-generational approach to gives a multitude of ideas for furthering and supporting creativity in every day life." —Margaret

"So much emotion coming from each poem, and all of them are most enjoyable. I hope to read more in the future!" —Jim

"They are inspiring, uplifting, and insightful. Deborah’s poems invite me to think more deeply, and honor my feelings as a full human. Her words give me solace and encouragement to continue to share my soulful insights with the world" —Namaste

"The practices within this book are like portals into which one enters a deeply creative and healing space. Without much effort, and in a myriad of ways, we are led closer to the creative force that calls to each of us." —Kim

Consider it your direct line to the wisdom that guides my work—
