“One of the most adventurous things left us is to go to bed.” — E. V. Lucas

News from the Waters of Rest and Sleep

• Ever been shamed or dismissed for ‘daydreaming’? Well, it can actually make you a smarter, more integrated human being! When your mind wanders, it engages in a form of default neural processing that is suppressed when attention is focused on the outside world. Rest is not Idleness.
• Temperature uncomfortably hot in bed at night? Don’t mess with the healing anti-inflammatory magic that is your sleep. “The number one thing to do is on hot days, in the morning, pull the shades on all the windows, close all the doors and try to trap all the cooling that’s occurred over night.” Make sure you are doing the simple, most important things to stay cool. 
• And…a lullaby for you, called “Blue Mind” by artist Alexi Murdoch. It has secrets about the timeless deeper waters of sleep. 🙂

Got no time
Got no mind
For the line
In my life
No time to think
Time to sleep now
Time to sink way into the blue deep

Oh the time is at hand when all things under sky
Go free of time,
Time is passing you by,
Got no time
And I’m drifting…
I’m drifting.

Remember when you were only a child
Start to see with your blue mind
Don’t be afraid of what you find
(Don’t stop your heart)
‘Cause I am drifting
Yes, I am drifting
Slowly, slowly I am drifting

Keep Calm and Rest On, 🙂

Wishing you beautiful adventures in sleep.

With love and respect,

~ Jennifer
