I help high-functioning people restore sleep

by stabilising the nervous system - Not forcing sleep hacks

If your nights feel unpredictable — you’re not broken

Is this you?

You fall asleep, but wake between 2–4am
Your body feels tired but your mind won’t switch off
Sleep advice “works” for others but not for you
You function well — but it takes effort
Rest doesn’t feel as restorative as it used to

Your sleep patterns are as unique as your fingerprint

Shaped by:

The whispers of your nervous system
The rhythm of your digestive wellness
The story held in your very cells
The dance between body, mind, and spirit

Sleep issues are often a nervous system pattern, not a personal failure

Under Stress

Why Sleep Stops Working

Sleep doesn’t respond well to pressure

When the nervous system stays in vigilance, the body struggles to drop into deep rest — no matter how “right” your routine is.

This is why effort alone doesn’t fix sleep.

Stability comes before sleep

How I work

My work combines modern sleep science with nervous system regulation and embodied practices drawn from yoga and Ayurveda.

Three pillars

Nervous system stability — helping the body feel safe enough to rest
Sleep & deep rest — supporting natural rhythms without force
Digestion & energy rhythms — because disrupted nights often begin earlier in the day

This isn’t about fixing you — it’s about helping your system reorganise
