Sleep!  It’s a topic that’s on pretty much every parent’s mind.  https://www.yourparentingmojo.com/sleep (We’ve already looked at this from a cultural perspective), where we learned our Western approach to sleep is by no means universal, and that this can result in quite a few of the problems we face in getting our children to sleep.

 

In this episode we dive deep into the practicalities of sleep with Dr. Chris Winter, who has practiced sleep medicine and neurology since 2004.  His first book, https://amzn.to/3v28sDc (The Sleep Solution, Why Your Sleep Is Broken and How To Fix It) (affiliate link) was focused on adults’ sleep challenges, and I’ve been putting the ideas in it into practice and have been getting better sleep as a result.

 

His new book is https://amzn.to/3DHwV3R (The Rested Child: Why Your Tired, Wired, or Irritable Child May Have a Sleep Disorder--And How to Help) (affiliate link), and is based on Dr. Winters’ almost two decades of experience of evaluating children in the sleep clinic that he founded.

 

We’ll look at ways that you can get more sleep (or maybe even more rest that feels almost as restful as sleep), whether you can shift your (or your child’s!) sleep patterns, how to banish bedtime struggles for good, and so much more!

 

This episode is for all parents, but especially for those who are expecting or have a child under the age of one, and who are desperately trying to get more sleep (or worried about being in that phase of life in the near future!).  We’ll help you get started on the right foot so you can know you’re doing the best for your child - and for yourself as well.

 

If you are expecting or have a child under one and you’d like to join the Right From The Start course to help you find the path that’s right for you and your child on sleep and feeding and independent play and brain development and not lose yourself in the process, then we’d love to have you join us.  Enrollment is open between October 24th - November 3rd, we get started together on Monday November 8th, and sliding scale pricing is available!  Just click the image below to learn more and sign up.
