Sleep and Confidence…

What do sleep and confidence have to do with each other?

Could lack of sleep or trouble sleeping really reduce your confidence?

Media makes it seem that you can push through exhaustion and be outgoing, positive, and powerful, no matter what, (as long as you buy the right deodorant, clothing, makeup, and cars).

But the truth is, being tired makes us more clumsy, less articulate, and lowers our ability to feel connected with others.

Never mind the subconscious feelings of being inadequate because sleep — a fundamental need and skill– is a struggle.

It can be horribly embarrassing to forget someone’s name or an important project deadline because of lack of sleep. It can be challenging to pay attention in meetings (ever dozed off when you shouldn’t?).

And it’s incredibly sad that the world misses out on the Best You, when you haven’t had enough sleep.

Please don’t hold yourself back. The world needs you!

sleep-confident-ideasIf you’ve read this far, you are someone with curiosity, courage, and a desire to make a difference. And if lack of sleep is dulling your responses, it could be effecting your career, your finances, your health, and your love life.

To live a life of connection, presence and alignment, rest is critical. How can you focus on doing a great job when all you want to do is rest your eyes? And how much harder is it to choose a trip to the gym over another night of tv watching when your body hurts from lack of sleep. How much more irritable and less loving are you when you’re just down right tired?

We want you to feel as calm and confident as you can. We focus on eliminating the blocks that keep you from bringing your best and brightest to the world.

And the more we dig into the issues around sleep, the more we realize what an impact this makes.

If you’d like a bit more ease…And more confidence that you can take care of yourself and your life… Let’s tap now! Please note: Tapping is powerful, and it won’t install things that are untrue. If you tap on something that doesn’t hold true for you, all you’ll get is clarity. (And you’re also free to change words.) So tap along!

Karate Chop: Even though I am often tired, I allow myself to find new paths forward.

Even though I haven’t been getting the sleep I need, I’m open to it being surprisingly easy and restful!

Even though not getting sleep is dulling my wits and dampening my confidence, I choose to make a difference right now (and I’m doing it by tapping right now!)

Take a deep breath.

Notice what you’re feeling.

If you could allow 10% more rest and 10% more confidence into your life, what would your life look like?
