“I was curious about meditation and had practiced at home for a while, but it wasn’t until I went to SOMM and seen the difference of doing it in person! The sound, the space, the cacao… It just took the whole experience to another level instead of listening to someone on YouTube”

Andy Armstrong

“This year has truely been the biggest year for me in so many ways. It really is a year of self discovery and growth. I’ve deepened my knowledge of meditation and myself in the most profound way. I’ve met and connected with so many amazing humans and I feel equiped to support others on their journey ”

Amanda

“I’ve always struggled with meditation but I’ve always wanted to give it a go as I understand how much it benefits the stresses of day to day life. Claire’s 5 senses yoga nidra was the first time I felt I was being guided properly where I genuinely felt focused on the meditation and not my growing to do list at home. I felt calm, relaxed, and it really helped start my next week off with clearer, more focused energy. I would highly recommend if you’re ready to meditate with someone so experienced and passionate about the subject.”

FAQs

  • Yes. Research shows that yoga lowers stress, relaxes the nervous system, and improves sleep quality. Even a short 10–15 minute practice before bed can help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.

  • Yoga can support people experiencing mild sleep disorders such as insomnia, stress-related sleep issues, and irregular sleep patterns. It is not a substitute for medical treatment, but it can be a supportive practice.

  • Even 10 minutes of gentle yoga can help. A short routine of stretching, breathing exercises, or Yoga Nidra is enough to prepare your body for rest.

  • Morning yoga boosts energy and focus, while evening yoga helps calm the body. Both are beneficial, but if your goal is better sleep, a gentle evening session is recommended.
